Mick Mulvaney, the White House Budget Director, really is a loathsome individual.

I have been so focused on all the other insane cabinet appointments that I hadn't even noticed that.

In a world with Secretary Betsy Devos, Secretary Rex Tillerson, Secretary Steve Mnuchin, Secretary Tom Price, EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt and Attorney General Jeff Sesions it is just so easy to skip over people.

3. This is what happens when you fill your cabinet positions by going

on Craig's List.
Wanted; Right wing nut jobs with very little if any moral character.
Helpful if previous employment involved scamming vulnerable people. Preference given to those formerly employed in the Banking Industry, Pharmaceuticals or Defence Industry.

4. He's one of the nastiest people I've ever seen in public office.

I couldn't believe the way he talked about the health care bill. He was totally indifferent to people losing coverage. Truly a guy who would just as soon you die quickly if you get sick.

5. He's a skeeve...

...in a den full of skeeves.

6. Website from a former constitutent of Mulvaney's which reveal how bad he is

"In this space over the last several months, we’ve listed reason after reason why Mick Mulvaney is the wrong choice to represent South Carolina’s fifth Congressional district. Those reasons include his inability to get along well with his colleagues, his disdain for working with his opposition, his lack of respect for the needs of women, his cozy relationship with lobbyists and special interests, his office-hopping ambition, his failure to accomplish anything substantive, his evident hypocrisy, and his failure to adhere to his stated principles."

There are links to all of the reasons.

Horrible relationship with Nikki Haley - he wanted her to appoint him to the Senate when Jim DeMint left. She did not - he was not happy. He said things about her.

Another aide to a GOP Congressman put it more bluntly, talking about Mulvaney’s House Freedom Caucus, established in 2015 after the RSC proved not to be right-wing enough for him: “They’re not legislators, they’re just assholes … These guys have such a minority mindset that the prospect of getting something done just scares them away, or pisses them off.”
