The point of a cabinet appointment is often to put the yoke on an adversary and have them in your service instead of out on the loose and plotting freely against you. Or, as LBJ once put it, “I would rather have the S.O.B. inside my tent pissing out than outside pissing in.”

That’s true. Maybe Cruz as AG. Less power than SCOTUS, and doing the President’s bidding. Still... Cruz... Nasty stuff.
