The Route to Making America Great Again
I'm sure these dudes can relate to us 'regular American' dudes:
The 17 people who US president-elect Donald Trump has selected for his cabinet or for posts with cabinet rank have well over $9.5 billion in combined wealth, with several positions still unfilled. This collection of wealth is greater than that of the 43 million least wealthy American households combined — over one third of the 126 million households total in the US.

As I have written before, the entire premise of the Trump Presidency is that people who are really successful at enriching themselves will now be very good at enriching everyone.
I don't think it will work.
However, I do not think that I am being unfair in saying this. Donald Trump said as much himself.
I mean, that really is the theory.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Re: The Route to Making America Great Again
Not exactly draining the swamp OR nominating people the "average guy" can relate to is it ?!
More like how the boardroom operates.
