Kakistocracy

That's a real word.  It means "rule by the worst people."  Here's another word: oligarchy - rule by the few.  Plutocracy - rule by the wealthy.

Which one will we have?  Tough to say, because we are short-circuiting the process by which we typically vet Cabinet appointees.  I have a very hard time imagining Trump's transition team pushed very hard on background checks and the nominees themselves have not been forthcoming with information.

The good news, I guess, is that it will be an exciting time to be an investigative journalist.
