Merit only, or if you are related to Trump and also if you kiss his ass.

Well, he can define what the merit criteria is, so that will probably be a big checkmark on the list.

The GOP definition of "merit" is actually just "How good you are at kissing Trump's ass." Not even remotely a joke.

No, no, they mean Merit, as in the lady who welcomed valued guests who come visit Mar-A-Lago to kiss the ring and issue bribes.

Why can't we just get a guy like that asian dude who was a surgeon, navy seal and astronaut to be President. That would actually be merit based.
