He is picking them based on their knowledge and competence in the particular area.

Is that a bad thing?

Trump questioned the legitimacy of the Native Americans’ heritage, telling Imus, “I would perhaps become an Indian myself.” He added, “I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that are trying to open up the reservations.”

Another adherent of the Caste system to level our playing field.

Don’s gotta listening to the multicultis at Faux News.

I can give him a long list of names of actual MD’s and medical insurance people who actually are 10th generation Americans. And didn’t get their jobs for being “victim minorities”.

The important issue for me today is: “Who is that beautiful woman greeting potential administration picks at the elevator in Trump Tower”?
