Trumps cabinet Generals and CEOs

[Red Oak]

Trump is picking Generals and CEOs for his positions of power.

These men are used to giving orders and having people jump at their very command.

In the world of politics people are just as likely to flip you off as jump to your command.

It will be interesting to see how these "A" type personalities perform in their respective areas.

I'm betting they will all try to defecate in each others sandbox and cause a wreck. Hopefully I am wrong.

If we survive it, it will be interesting to watch.

1. Well, James Madison called it..

the danger of breaking the tradition of A-type Military Sorts answering to Civilians..

"In time of actual war, great discretionary powers are constantly given to the Executive Magistrate. Constant apprehension of War, has the same tendency to render the head too large for the body. A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive, will not long be safe companions to liberty. The means of defense against foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home. Among the Romans it was a standing maxim to excite a war, whenever a revolt was apprehended. Throughout all Europe, the armies kept up under the pretext of defending, have enslaved the people."
