I agree. The President did not have a folder filled with names of knowledgeable and experienced Republicans willing to serve. These gents stepped forward and have performed IMO well. The Iran thing is still to be played out. My worry about WH Staff is that it is filled with political naifs. Congressional elections are quite a different thing than elections for POTUS and require different strategies. The President must be informed of what policies of his meld with the GOP in Congress and the disparate intrrests of the voters. I do not know if pointing to an additional $37.50 a bi weekly paycheck is enough to commit vooters to vote GOP.
Perhaps you might help us out here with an example or two of the unicorns you are describing here.
