Remember this Trump has never been good at picking people..Pince and just about everyone he has hired comes to mind and has turned on him...Plus his kids factor into this as he listens to them.
That’s the thing that keeps me up nights. I don’t know who has Trump’s ear enough to avoid further disasters in key spots. Reagan had his kitchen cabinet made up of loyalists from California like Ed Meese who took care of a lot of this. He trusted them and they watched out for him. Trump needs a kitchen cabinet of his own, but it has to be picked by someone else or it’s just the same problem with the kitchen cabinet.
The thing about a kitchen cabinet is that it stays in the kitchen meaning in the background. I think a lot of the people who may have been part of Trump’s kitchen cabinet and been really helpful over the long haul like Steve Bannon were too visible and that made it easy for them to be picked off by the bad elements led by that weasel Mike Pence who saw how effective his lies about General Flynn were in undermining Trump.
