Yes, Donald Trump’s cabinet will end up being the richest in modern history—worth around $4.5 billion at conservative estimates but many multi-billions more if you include the family wealth of his appointments and of course Trump himself. Any way you count it, the wealth, corporate influence, and potential conflicts of interest concentrated in this cabinet transcends that of any administration in recent memory.


Is Trump
Scary as hell and we must remain vigilante. The idea of appointing Steve Mnushcn as Treasury Secretary should make any patriotic American's skin crawl, hair stand up and gag reflex kick in. I really do not believe that Trump supporters actually realize who and what this low-life is and what he has done. This drinks swamp water at the cocktail hour. As opposed to a combined thread for the cabinet picks, if any POS was worthy of his own, this creature is.

Liberal math:

Republican = fascist
Republican = racist
Republican = misogynist
Republican = xenophobe
Republican = homophobe

Keep it up. I'd like even more seats come 2018.

Fascists, lol. You nitwits finally figured out the bigot/racist/homophobe title doesn't work anymore so now it's the f-word. Despite the fact it's liberal Democrats exhibiting brown shirt behavior.

Yes, much like the students at Berkeley, Hitler also had thugs shut down free speech when he was fighting for power.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Hitler also make claims of mental defect of the people he didn't like?

For a proclaimed populist prez, his Cabinet is quite elitist. He's showing his true loyalties....and it's not to red states, it's to green green green, the color of money.

Most exceptionally successful people tend to be rich.

I haven't personally met a highly motivated and skillful person who is an economic failure.

My friends who have these traits are doctors, lawyers, engineers and business people that are doing very well.

I have a buddy who graduated West Point and then got his MBA at Harvard. Most likely, he will end up as at least a wealthy VP of the Fortune 500 company he is at if not their CEO one day. He busts his tail. He works practically every weekend even though he puts in 12 hour days. He's smart, he works hard, he'll be rich and he is the type of person leaders choose.

LOL. Very true.

If they actually bother to look up the word fascist, they would find it would much better fit the Obama administration.

All I remember is people complained about how the 1%, the elite, the people who could buy their way in and out of anything didn't care about the other 99%, the middle class, blue-collar America and the lower class.

But now the 2017 Billionaire Boyz Club is somehow going to be different, so they tell themselves.
