20, November 2016 Trump’s administration
Trump has quickly assembled a potential list
of loyalists and enemies. Loyalists are being rewarded with plumb positions in
his administration and enemies will no doubt feel the sting of his 3am Twitter
onslaughts.
The Twitter king shows few signs of
moderation but continues to pick people that mirror his extreme ideology that
defined his presidential campaign.
Hawks and conservative loyalists are being
selected to fill important positions.
Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama has been
tapped as attorney general in recognition for his unrelenting crackdown on
undocumented immigrants.
Retired General Michael Flynn has been
nominated as national security advisor for his hawkish stance on Muslim
immigrants and willingness to join the “lock her up” brigades.
Representative Mike Pompeo of Kansas has been
nominated director of the CIA for his harsh criticism of Hillary Clinton over
Benghazi. Most surprisingly, is the overture to Gov. Mitt Romney a former
bitter critic possibly displacing the prior favorite, the incendiary New
Gingrich as secretary of state. Giuliani another favorite is almost certain to
be part of Trump’s inner circle if he can extricate himself from his huge
financial interests. Michelle Rhee, the former chancellor of schools in the
District of Columbia – the “charter school queen” will probably be offered the
position as Secretary of Education.
Darth Vader, Bannon, tapped as White House strategist
is the most controversial, notorious for his trafficking in racist, sexist
anti-Semitic posts. He may well lock horns with Thump’s influential son-in-law,
Jard Kushner, an orthodox Jew.
