Tourette syndrome that involves twitches. I talked to my neurologist about some slight ticks that I have. She told me that she wrote her college paper on Tourettes and that it's not just verbal. She said she did a study of someone who was compelled to do cartwheels and was diagnosed with Tourette syndrome. I never knew that until then.

Trump could have chosen a worse candidate. I watched the hearings today and Mnuchin just rebuffed or told everybody he'd get back to them. I do think he has a lot of knowledge and is qualified for the job. I disagree with a lot of policies but I wouldn't call him unfit.

Unlike a lot of the appointees, he's not that bad.

Look at who Rick Perry is supposed to replace. Not even in the same league. Betsy devos and Ben Carson are idiots.

I'm not going to slam this guy other than he seems like a weasel.
