To return to the subject at hand, Trump is the only one with the experience of having counted upon the swamp to supply him with lieutenants to fill the 5,000 or so positions that constitute any WH administration. No one person coming into office can know enough people to fill these positions, but now Trump has good handle on it and will hit the ground running, the same way he ran his businesses. He won't let the swampers ~help~ him again. The fist term is a learning experience; the second can be a different story. You can count on Pompeo being a key figure who will direct traffic and be a real force, probably Chief of Staff. DeSantis at Homeland Security will tighten security, almost overnight because he knows where all the leaks are and they are instantly pluggable. Ramaswamy could be wasted at Commerce, but better used as the heavy that closes down Dept. of Ed. in an orderly fashion. If he does well, there are other agencies that don't need to exist. Mike Flynn is one of few who could restore the DOD to what it should be instead of a haven for high ranking anti-American WOKE cunts. They need to get back to "Be All You Can Be" from the now, "WOKE welcome! new genitals & gender-neutral uniforms". The trash needs to taken out at CIA and Justice so Jordan & Nunes can flip to see who gets which. State also needs an outsider with a lot of knives, but I don't have a good candidate in mind. That should be ex-military to insure they know who they owe allegiance to, and the chain of command. Lankford could give HEW some new direction and a downward curve reversing the all-encompassing scope of agencies to expand jurisdiction to include every need under the sun. Personal responsibility used to mean "take care of yourself", and it needs to return. Ben Carson could serve HEW (& elsewhere) as Trump's hatchet man to recombobulate FDA, CDC, and like science agencies that no longer serve any master well without a little something on the side, and perhaps blown up and started all over at the elementary baseline. Prohibiting federal employees from ~sharing~ royalties or any other form of graft needs to be a listed felony in the bribery statutes. On federal payroll?: May not ever beg, borrow, earn, or receive any money or anything of value from any other entity while on federal payroll, plus be prohibited from being employed or benefited by any company regulated by said agency for at least 5 years following termination.
Nicky Haley is an anti-Trumper who only looks good in the polls against Joe because Dems would vote overwhelmingly for her. She could be Ambassador to Germany; a good place for her to sharpen her teeth. Christy could be Ambassador to Kazakhstan. He could hold poker games and knife fights. Or he can stay in Jersey and tend bar. Mike Pence can learn how to cut bait.
