Shah headed up what’s called ‘opposition research’ on Hillary. He has been in oppo research for a long time, working in the Bush 2 White House and for the McCain and Romney campaigns. He does not have notable technical computer expertise.
Trump’s Raj Shah was born and raised in Connecticut and is a graduate of Cornell.
No, that guy is a Democrat and has been appointed head of Rockefeller Foundation, more’s the shame.
Thanks

Shah is an Indian surname. It is often confused with the Persian "Shah" meaning "King". It is derived from Sanskrit Sadhu (meaning gentleman.So it can be a surname of a Moslem, Christian or Hindu.
...Shah, a different last name, derived from the Persian word "Shah", is a surname found among the Iranian peoples of Central Asia, Afghanistan and parts of Pakistan.
Christians in India now tend to retain or keep Indian names.
I’m confused by the “2nd generation American” part.
Does that mean his parents became citizens before he was born?
Are they citizens now?
