Thank you for the polite disagreement comment. It is refreshing to have different opinions expressed without the character assassinations that often occur.

The only restriction I am aware of are relatives to Cabinet positions, imposed because of the Kennedy brothers.
And actually, as much as I think JFK was a leftist who has been elevated to Divine Status, I think that restriction is wrong. In my opinion the president has the right to appoint anyone to the cabinet he wants, as long as he can get them past the senate.
Were Obama’s appointees good just by virtue of the fact that they weren’t relatives?
The fact is, if you don’t like Trump’s job in office, vote for Lieawatha or whoever in 2020. Until then, let him do his freaking job.

I guess you are being sarcastic. I accept your polite criticism of me.
I am sorry I said “ninny”.

I agree, it is too much. Nobody voted for her.

I seem to remember Huma sitting in the Chair at a G-20 Meeting
Know for sure pictures of unelected Hillary Clinton sitting in the chair in 2012 Mexico City

Sorry but this is crap, who elected Ivanka? Why do the same people that were outraged by the power given to the unelected shrillary and wookie feel it's OK for the unelected Ivanka to to do the same thing? We elect one person to be the President of the United States, not a person and their family or extended family as co-presidents.

I agree with you on this.
I don’t like nepotism any better then cronyism.
Other then JFK (RFK was Attorney General) I can’t think of any other administration that was as blatant in their use of “family” for administration tasks,
Bushes don’t count each was elected by their own right.
It is bothersome!

Apparently you have forgotten the service Jamie Gorelick did to facilitate 9/11. Bueller? Bueller?-yourself. Ethics advise from her is a joke.
You also seem to have forgotten Trump saying his children would not be in his administration although Donald Jr. a conservative would be far better than a liberal.
21 trillion deficit and Ivanka wants the government to fund parents’ 6 week family leave. Worse idea than the subsidies with that socialist Obamacare. Parents can save vacation time or the funds to take off 6 weeks. Will likely mean no 70 inch TV, but it is not the government responsibility to fund family leave or childcare. That is a personal responsibility.

Wow! I was being quite sincere. Your response to me was very polite. You did not call me a ninny unless I missed it. You said that to another poster

Didn’t like it then either. Two wrongs will never make a right and it doesn’t matter who does it.
