Trump Appoints A Black Female Nurse Rear Admiral As Surgeon General.Libs Slam Her
Once she’s appointed by Trump, she’s instantly dissed…Team over country.
Quote:For President Trump, no good deed goes unpunished.
Trump asked Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, an Obama holdover, to step down. In his place, the president promoted Deputy Surgeon General Sylvia Trent-Adams as acting surgeon general.
Instead of applauding President Trump for elevating a black, female nurse to the post, leftists attacked Dr. Trent-Adams’ credentials, saying she’s “just a nurse.” Obviously, Trump’s promotion of a black woman doesn’t fit the liberal media narrative that he’s a “racist misogynist.”
The disses started with liberal media outlets like ABC News, which tepidly announced in a snide tweet: “Dr. Vivek Murthy — an Obama appointee — resigns as Surgeon General, replaced by deputy Sylvia Trent-Adams, a nurse.”
Actually, she’s a nurse with a Ph.D., so you can call her “Doctor.”
Similarly, the New York Times — the so-called bastion of social justice activism — bleated in a snobby headline: “Nurse Replaces Surgeon General After Obama Appointee Resigns.”
It’s not until the last paragraph that the New York Times mentions that Sylvia Trent-Adams has a Ph.D. and was a nurse officer in the Army who had served as deputy surgeon general.

I think getting rid of the prior one was good but his appointee is under credentialed and unfit.

And what are you credentials that qualifies you to make that judgement?

The ability to tell the difference between a PhD. and an MD.

I would choose neither.....only an MBA or with major experience would've been my choice....
what does either one have to do with running a high level business effectively?

She's the acting SG so honestly her qualifications don't bother me.
Also the duties of the SG are pretty much administrative to begin with so I REALLY don't understand what the big deal is.

Uncredentialed?
Wasn't her previous stop as deputy surgeon general? Would seem that she should be the most qualified of anyone.

the Peter principle comes to mind....but yeah, I'd weigh experience as my #1 over any degree....
I'm not a fan of tossing all degrees into a bucket as valid....the ol' adage, "the degree gets you in the door - it's what you can do with it determines the real value" comes to mind
the one thing we all do know.....she won't last long if she doesn't perform.....

Uh, it's not like she actually has to perform surgery on anyone, right?

My point was that it is just a title, therefore there is no need to be an MD to fill the position. So the point of knowing the difference between a PhD and a MD is really no point at all.

So you gotta be a MD to be an administrator? I don't follow your logic here. Only MDs are smart enough to direct public health initiatives?

The vast majority of the time, nobody even knows who the Surgeon General is. Jocelyn Elders and C. Everett Coop being the exceptions. But its a huge concern all of a sudden? I don't think so.

My thoughts exactly.
Just proves that the team over country crowd is going to find fault with absolutely everything that Trump does.

If more people listened to what their nurses were saying, they would not need as many surgeons. Guess the left would have preferred that female Muslim doctor performing female genital mutilation on young girls. Dumbasses.

Rear Admiral, figured she would at least be a proctologist.

Hell, I've spent enough time in the ER both as a patient and not to know that nurses run the show, they just let doctors take the credit.
