Obama used the IRS to attack conservatives, last count several hundred hard drives failed at the IRS within seconds of their content being subpoenaed. The attack on conservatives was part of the Obama enemies list against those who merely believed differently than he does. The folks who attacked Trump, were proud to have him as their enemy, they hate him. The folks Obama attacked, were citizens, trying to do what citizens normally do. Are you in the least bit concerned about the thousands attacked by Obama and his enemies list?

Sure, you might not hire these people if they didn't support you, but "enemies list?"
That sounds positively juvenile.
You just politely ignore them, you don't offer them positions, and you move on.
If you're an adult and not a whiny, trust fund baby.
Per the bolded --- Did you not see the quoted post above yours? What Obama did was "positively juvenile". Do you hold Obama to different standards and as a result, give him a free pass?
Why would anyone hire someone they don't trust when there are plenty of other qualified candidates they do trust or have not declared themselves untrustworthy? They chose unwisely.
If Trump had an ounce of the class Obama does, he'd leave these employees alone and encourage the use of free speech. But I guess his wittle baby feewings can't handle such a big boy response.

He is leaving them alone, that's why their wittle feewings are hurt.

If you note, the phrase "enemies list" was used by one of the aggrieved individuals, not a transition team member. Likely to gain sympathy and garner criticism against Trump for not choosing people for political appointments who opposed his election.
People need to stop and think. If you have a goal that will take everyone working together to achieve it, do you hire people who made it clear they don't agree with you or do you hire people on board with you? Of course you hire the ladder over the former.
Actually they are surprised that anyone could be so petty.
Try turning in with your resume a cover letter that says "I really dislike your company and what it stands for, but I need a job" and tell me how many offers you get.
The ONLY time something like that has ever succeeded was for the position of Assistant to the Traveling Secretary with the New York Yankees.
It sounds like they demonstrated their lack of common sense.
If a person goes on the public record saying they are "NeverTrump" and further claiming Trump is a danger to the nation, how could s/he possibly think Trump would offer a job after that kind of attack??

That sentiment has to be some type of record in terms of degree of narcissistic entitlement.
These people cast their lot with an unprecedented political maneuver, lost, and will pay for their gamble. Like all gamblers do. Period.
To think that there are not penalties for playing politics, especially on such an unprecedented scale on the national stage for un-elected bureaucrats and advisors in Washington, is the opinion only of the extremely naive.
