there was some talk that DJT had a couple D senators who might be good for administrative appointments due to their outside knowledge .... and where R governors would appoint R senators to replace them

There are 8 RED State Democrats up for reelection in 2018. Trump needs to call the 8 in and say "I'm offering positions in my Administration to only 2 of you. I will campaign vigorously to defeat the other 6. Jump now, or be destroyed. I'm only taking 2. First come, first served. Now, who's it gonna be?"

I see.
yes, that could work well...
another approach might be to just look over their resumes and try to pick 2 or 3 that (hopefully) have some genuine qualifications to do something useful in the administration

offer them jobs first (maybe deputy advisor to the second assistant supervisor for turning bullshit into energy)

either way, I hope he does it ... his entire program could be held up just by McShame and Lindsay getting but one more vote, just one....and after all the other crazy things those two have done....I wouldn’t put it past them to try to screw up DJT’s program

LOL! Good one.

One of them is the execrable Joe Manchin. That man must be retired from the Senate. He's a disgrace to the Great State of West Virginia.
