Officials from President-Elect Donald Trump’s transition team confirmed Wednesday morning that the Trump administration’s choice for Director of Office of Management and Business (OMB) will be the President-Elect’s twin, largely unknown real estate mogul Tronald Dump.

Mr. Dump, shown in the photo above, has never been covered by media before now, stating that he owes his seeming inconspicuousness, despite being the twin brother of a well known figure and now President-Elect, to an innate talent in regards to not being noticed and to flying under the radar.

“I’m the best at hiding,” Dump said in an exclusive interview Wednesday evening. “Believe me. You won’t find anyone better than me at hiding. I love to hide, and many professional hiders know me.”

Asked why Mr. Dump was tapped for OMB, the President-Elect cited his twin brother’s vast experience at business and securing large sums of money to finance projects all over the world, including some of the President-Elect’s own golf courses.

“Well I think he’s great at making deals,” Trump said. “He’s the best, as good as I am, believe me, and I’m the best. He’s made a lot of money. Some fantastic deals. Billions of dollars, like me. Just fantastic. The best. He’s even done some work on my golf courses, the best in the world by the way.”

Many have voiced open opposition to President-Elect Trump’s cabinet choices, claiming that the President-Elect’s cabinet represents an administration dedicated solely to the billionaire class and to the top one percent of income earners.

“I guess they have a few poor millionaires on it, but, mostly, it is billionaires,” Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said in an interview last week with CBS. “And this is coming from a candidate for president, Mr. Trump, who told us he was going to take on the establishment. Well, maybe I am not seeing something here, but you don’t appoint the head of ExxonMobil to be secretary of state. That is not quite taking on the establishment.”

Asked about the OMB pick, Trump officials have expressed only support.

“I think that he made the right choice,” Campaign Manager Kellyanne Conway said. “I was given the opportunity to have dinner alone with Mr. Dump, without even the President-Elect being there, and I was shocked by how similar they were. Mr. Dump has leadership skills nearly on par with President-Elect Trump. I could see a 2024 run after eight years of a successful Trump administration.”

House Speaker Paul Ryan, however, seemed to evade the question entirely when prompted.

“I don’t have much to say on the matter,” Ryan said. “Mr. Trump will do what he feels is best, and the GOP will be behind him. We’ve never been more unified.”

Asked about this in an exclusive interview by Odyssey Online, President Obama seemed shocked by the President-Elect’s choice for Director of OMB.

“I... what? Are you serious?” Obama said. “What is this? Are you even journalists? Is this a real interview? That twin is clearly-”

The interview was interrupted by the Secret Service for security purposes. Mr. Dump has said that he intends to respond to the President-Elect’s offer by the end of the month.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
