RSN: Dancing Clown now in charge of Nuclear Power Plants & Nuclear Weapons



Phew! Another day, Another incompetent Trump appointment!

As a presidential candidate, Dancing Clown Rick Perry wanted to eliminate the ENERGY DEPARTMENT, but couldn't remember it on his list. 

His predecessors were Nuclear Physicists, one of whom won a Nobel Prize. 

This Dancing Clown is now in charge of Nuclear Power Plants and our Nuclear Weapons stockpile. 

The US has failing Nuclear Power Plants, leaking radioactive waste sites, an aging arsenal of weapons...and who knows what else. 

Maybe he can dance his way to success.
