That’s odd, because I am familiar with some of those names.

I wouldn’t expect Trump to pick advisers from the Republican Rolodex of foreign affairs experts. Based on recent comments on Israel and NATO and Japan and Korea I don’t think he’s listening to them anyway.

Ooh, look!

Walter Duranty's mommy is clutching her pearls over Donald Trump. How unexpected.

“...they are fighting for their own survival...”

Not really for their “survival”, but fighting so they can stay on the gravy train and not have to really work for a living...

If they were truly experts, then why are we in the foreign affairs mess that we’re in?

In other words, NYT doesn't approve of them.

Who are Trump's advisors? Well, learn about them:

Trump Names Team of Foreign Policy Advisors and Questions Cost of U.S. Role in NATO
http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/foreign-policy/item/22823-trump-names-team-of-foreign-policy-advisors-and-questions-cost-of-u-s-role-in-nato

Donald Trump revealed the names of a team that is advising him on foreign affairs and advocated that America’s NATO allies pay more for U.S. military support.

Trump could name PeeWee Herman as head of his Foreign Policy group and be ahead of the self serving idiots that are running things now, Republican or Democrat.

It didn’t say that in the article, and I don’t watch reality teevee.
