I think we’re going to see much more of this. Trump is a deal maker and his goal is to tie the hands of his potential opponents by putting some of them inside the tent. It’s a very risky strategy. One or two appointments can be forgiven if the most significant cabinet seats are given to people who truly want to reverse the mess Obama created. But if we start to see a flood of former Bush staffers and Romney-bots, it’s going to be very difficult to sell to the people who elected Trump.
Too bad Castro is dead, he would have been a good addition to the Tent.
