its not real clear but it seems scary that Trumps team is looking for people that perhaps disagree with them in order to fire them or discredit them?

I cant think of another reason they would search for the top salaried individuals that where onboard with Climate science.

The positive aspect of all this is if he does as bad as we all think he will, then voters will vote him out and vote somebody else in.

Maybe they will see the GOP ways dont work for people but only work for companies and corporations.
