I have to agree. Most of Trump’s picks for staff and cabinet positions have really sucked.
I do think Trump is going to move more to the right as time goes on however. Just a gut feeling.

I truly hope you are right, but I am inclined to think in the opposite direction. Trump is not a “drain the swamp” sorta guy, that was a projection of his supporters IMHO. Trump is a self-aggrandizing deal-maker, and he came to DC to make deals. Given the gutless fecklessness of the GOP majority (although that is somewhat of a misnomer as there are a half-dozen Senators who will bail at any given moment and join the Dems) I suspect Trump will revert to his nature and “reach across the aisle” to negotiate directly with the Dims to enact stuff like single-payer, etc.
But nothing would give me greater happiness in the political realm than for Trump to prove me wrong and govern competently as a conservative.
