Hung Cao gets Secretary of Navy because trump thinks his name is funny
***
here’s yet another way you can tell you live in a shithole country: it’s when your Acting Secretary of the Navy pretty much has his job because *Dear Leader is a child who giggled over his name.*
yesterday, John Phelan got fired as Navy Secretary, and his second in command took over. his name? [Hung Cao](https://wjla.com/news/local/navy-secretary-john-phelan-acting-hung-cao-departure-administration-defense-leadership-sailors-defense-secretary-dc-conference-iran-military-strait-of-hormuz).

the first thing you need to know is that our overgrown toddler president [thinks the name ‘Hung Cao’ is super fucking hilarious](https://www.mediaite.com/trump/i-love-that-trump-praises-republican-senate-candidate-for-having-a-name-that-alone-can-you-get-you-elected/).

> *“It’s really an honor to be with you,” Trump said with Cao to his right. “Thank you. And we’re gonna be with this man. This is a great gentleman. I love his name — Hung Cao. I love that name. And that name alone should get you elected, right?”*
spoiler alert: Hung Cao’s name *didn’t* get him elected in 2024, because Hung Cao is a fucking crackpot who ran for Senate because, quite frankly, ***somebody needed to do something [about all these witches](https://x.com/RightWingWatch/status/1684582480873938945).***

*“there’s a place in Monterey, California called Lovers Point. the original name was Lovers of Christ Point. but now they took out the Christ, it’s become Lovers Point — really, Monterey is a really dark place now, a lot of witchcraft and the wiccan community has really taken over there, and we can’t let that happen in Virginia.”*
Hung Cao seems sane, doesn’t he?
and because Donny has a knack for always being able to find the worst person possible for each job, he plucked Wytchfinder Cao from the shitpile of failure and made him [his Undersecretary of the Navy](https://x.com/HungCao_VA/status/1974930928507191673).

for once in his entire stupid life, Donny didn’t hire a flunkie because he looked good on Fox News. no, he this time picked the dude whose name makes him think of a big-dick bovine.
and now, Cao — *the scourge of witches from Monterey to Virginia* — is our Acting Secretary of the Navy.
