****females have no standing or rights in Islam****
he does, however, have a great number of female appointees in high positions.
All I meant to say is that men and women cannot be in contact with each other or even in proximity of each other during a gathering.
I wasn't saying anything at all about who is or is not in his cabinet.
But, he is just looking for allies of all kinds. For example, Muslims kill homos and yet he has homosexuals in his cabinet. He is just playing the ‘American’ game for power.
In most Islamic cultures, you would never find a woman in government. And, a homosexual would be put on trial.
You have to play to your audience.
