President-elect Donald Trump is assembling his administration by focusing on personal loyalty and media experience.
His choices, which include key positions like chief of staff and Justice Department leadership, reflect a preference for individuals with whom he has strong personal ties or who have demonstrated significant television presence.
This unconventional approach has raised eyebrows, as it deviates from the traditional political and bureaucratic expertise typically sought for such roles.

Trump in a racist, misogynistic, discriminatory old man who probably needs help wiping his own bum but fully capable of bankrupting and destroying other economies. He says he will do these awful things but never ends up doing them. Anyone who votes for him is an uneducated racist and has been brainwashed by Trumps fake promises. It’s all propaganda.

He should not pick people just because he likes them. He needs to pick them based on how good of a job they do and not how much they like him.
Filling key government roles based on loyalty and media skills instead of competence and experience is a dangerous way to run a country—it puts personal interests above the public good.

In staffing his incoming administration, President-elect Donald Trump has so far veered from the conventional to the confounding. But his choices all seem to have one thing in common: A bond with Trump himself.
This is exactly why we need less government in the first place. When it's all about personal loyalty and media optics, it just shows how broken the whole system is.
It's about time we have a leader who puts loyalty to the nation first instead of the same old political insiders!
Finally, someone who understands that you don’t need to be a career politician to run the country! Trump’s picking people who actually get things done and know how to work the media, not just the same old swamp creatures.
