If Trump decided to use military leadership in key positions that should benefit the nation. Even with the two or three GO being considered that will put prior military as less than 10% of positions, not clear how anyone can argue the military is dominant in this type of analysis.
Trump and the GOP were elected if with all the negative MSM press coverage. I don't expect any of the critical commentary to go away, as the Dems and MSM realize that they will continue to be on the outside looking in.
Maybe if we all turn off the TV and get to work and support our families the MSM will have less advertising $$$ and support to push their bias opinions.

Washington insiders prefer lawyers & fellow-politicians to proven military leaders for high administrative offices. Lawyers & politicians caused the mess in which our poor Republic finds itself. Time to drain the swamp!

Still waiting for the first pick that I disagree with, not the ones visiting Trump Tower, but actual picks. All those Democrats didn't seem too concerned with abilities in 2008, when some of the most over-the-top Cabinet members was selected by Obama. Paybacks are Hell, thank you Harry for the Nuclear Option.

A couple of questions: (1) We the People trusted these men with control of the military might of our nation, why shouldn't we trust them now that they are "PFC"s like the rest of us? (2) Does the fact that these are generals who President Obama dismissed speak in their favor? (3) Why would anyone on RP be concerned with having veterans join the Administration at the highest levels?
