re: Trump chooses Linda McMahon as Head of Small Business Admin

Up until now, he wasn't a politician though. Just a rich guy with a foundation (like all of them). And should he be appointing people he doesn't know at all, when he has qualified people in his circle that he trusts? I think this is only the second appointment from his business associates, so it's not as if he is lining his cabinet with "friends".

I think you may be letting too much "liberal conventional wisdom" affect your take on this one.
