The right surely worked themselves into a lather over Hillary's so called "pay to play" practice while she headed the State Department. It seems only reasonable that they would call out Trump for his own "pay to play" turnstyle he is operating to fill his cabinet and other key appointments: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.2d2a1690b1b8.
Unless perhaps, it doesn't matter when the orange man does it?
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.
So, your link from the 19th of November (maybe the 16th) and this guy is already gone....in a matter of less than 10 days, he was hired and fired....
President Barack Obama was caught on microphone telling Dmitry Medvedev that he would have more flexibility after November's election to deal with contentious issues such as missile defence.

Mr Medvedev, who steps down in May, said he would pass on Mr Obama's message to his successor Vladimir Putin, according to an audio recording of comments the two leaders made during a meeting in Seoul, South Korea.

It is like a sports team, when your team does it, it isn't cheating but when the other team does it, it is. It is like Boston Red Sox fans complaining about New York Yankees spending all that money for players, yet that is what exactly the Sox do...

Trump's SIL - Jared Kushner - wasted no time in getting Chris Christie and friends removed from the transition team. This was after he helped to remove the Governor from consideration as VP.

Why do you continue to bring stuff up that is 20+ days old?
You point us useless....you said trump was going to drain the swamp including cabinet members...
You have yet to show me nor anyone else this....anywhere...
Throughout the campaign The Donald said that he would drain the swamp in Washington, that he would see legislation passed that would restrain lobbyists from having an influence in government.
He now has a transition team loaded with lobbyists and insiders, and several Wall Street insiders appointed to his Cabinet.
Please remember, it was your hero who said this - not me.
I guess that, in your mind, the Cabinet members are resting safely on an island, so they would not be affected when Donald drains the swamp.
If reading something that is 20 days old bothers you so, I can only imagine how you feel about history. Some of that stuff is really old.
Drain the swamp by putting millionaire CEO's into government positions....
Trump voters.
So we got a brain dead neurosurgeon, a carnie owner, and now an owner of fast food franchises. His cabinet reads like people he knows offhand vs vetting people who are right for the job. Inwonder if Papa John was considered for this position?
Everyone in Trump's cabinet has spent their entire lives enriching themselves at the expense of others. He'll hide some of the damage his administration does if he pushes through a large infrastructure package, but once those projects are finished, it will look like scorched earth and the Dems, once again, will be left to clean up the mess.
Education secretary who is doesn't like public education, EPA head who is a climate change denier, small business administration leader who knows nothing about small businesses, CEO who fights labor rights in charge of the department of labor.
Amazing.
The Trump working class voters are in for a rude
awakening.. The Trump donors will get richer and become billionaires instead of staying millionaires. LOL

If a person becomes a cabinet member, are they still considered a lobbyist? See how easy it is to play the leftist word game?
ORRRRRRRRRRRRRr, are there still lobbyist out there?

You got me there....except the history in your story lasted a total of 6 days, period end of story.
Then you continue to say he is stacking the deck....well, you have yet to prove that....unless you look at old news...then you maybe right.....but long ago, the news was, the world was flat....
Listen, we can go back and forth all day long, you've interpenetrated me wrong and I have interpenetrated you wrong.
Can we agree on that?
