Steve Hart - LOBBYING firm chairman (Williams & Jensen)

Ado Machida - LOBBYIST who also worked for Dole and Cheney
Andrew Bremberg - worked for Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney, and at Dept. of HHS

If you're going to Washington better bring your hip boots, as the Liar-in-Chief is flooding the swamp.
Silly me, I thought you were going to show me where cabinet members were going to be cut, then you just show me a bunch of lobbyist names and then blame me because you cannot even follow your own posts...

You can make up any definition that pleases you, but your candidate said that he would drain the swamp in WASHINGTON, which includes Cabinet appointees.
Stand by for another wave of trickle-up economics, when the Hypocrite-in-Chief and his pals will see their incomes rise 300%.
But hey, you got a red hat.
And I did not make up the definition, your buddy did...
I disagree with Trump and think he is a hypocrite for his criticism of crony capitalism under a Clinton administration, yet of his potential appointees, 12 monetarily supported his campaign.
That said, I do think that Trump putting Linda McMahon (one of those 12 monetary supporters of Trump) in charge of the SBA, is a good move. See, I'm being fair to Trump.

SO, once again, I took the first name from your list (added another T to his first name) and found he is no longer anywhere near trump...

Matthew Freedman, who was leading the group’s planning for the White House National Security Council, also departed.
Did not have to read past the bold part, you blew your own statement.....since when are lobbyist and washingtion insiders appointed by congress or considered "cabinet" members, which is clearly what we are talking about....
Since you asked...
The President will make approximately 4,000 appointments, and 1,212 of these will require Senate confirmation. Many of these appointees will be former lobbyists or Washington and Wall Street insiders, as evidenced by the makeup of the current transition team and several of his Cabinet appointments.
I was confident that you knew the background of most, if not all, of the Cabinet appointees. I posted the link (and then a partial list of transition team members) to provide additional proof that The Donald went back on his word to his supporters.
This man will say or do anything to achieve a desired outcome. His lack of character is enough to disqualify him from the holding highest post in the land.
Who knows why he left the transition team. Maybe he got peeved (like Rudy) when he learned that he wouldn't get the appointment that he desired. Or maybe he balked at signing an NDA.
But trump did hire him and all the rest on the list.
ETA: Just read that everyone who was picked by Gov. Christie was removed from the team, which included Freedman.

yes because we all know it's a great idea to turn the leadership of this nation over to the fossil fuel industry. What could possibly go wrong!
