Perry accepted the Secretary of Energy job thinking he would be the global ambassador for the oil and glass industry. But later, he discovered he was wrong. Instead, he was to become the steward of America's nuclear energy arsenal.

Rick Perry has no such qualifications, especially since the DOEnergy has control of nuclear weapons infrastructure of the country, and many national laboratories.
He, like almost all of Drumpf's cabinet nominees, is uniquely unqualified for his position.
It is a really scary time. This position all the more since Drumpf has asked, "why can't we use them?"

The trees in the area would fell themselves, while nearby rivers ran dry.
The man is ignorant and his ignorance - a scourge.
