This is getting old. When Sherman Adams was President Eisenhower's chief of staff, his refusal to hire conservatives and loyal Republicans who had worked their hearts out for the Eisenhower/Nixon ticket was legendary. And during his presidency, Nixon retained a lot of Democrat holdovers.
Why can't Republicans do like Democrat presidents and clean house once they get in?

*************
Because most Republicans are weak, clueless and unprincipled.
Republicans are, of course, every bit as corrupt as Democrats. By what logic should we expect Republicans to avert the very corruption that is foundational to both the Democrat and the Republican parties?
Ike did not want Nixon as his VEEP. He wanted Theodore McKeldin who presented both inaugural addresses for Eisenhower. Eisenhower knew him as a man of deep moral conviction and a truly patriotic American. Nixon was a made man, the spawn of political corruption. The boys in the backroom demanded Nixon as VEEP as their condition for promoting Ike.
Because they all make up the same party, the party of The Establishment.
They all serve one god, the god of communism. None are anything but "The Swamp"
The President can't do it alone and the 3% are all talk, bluster and full of bull dung!
After bowing, The Establishment offered barak a meal, calling "here boys".
