There are two personal characteristics of these Trump appointees I see emerging.

Courage and transparency.
All these appointees are courageous in their own way. The problem with courage, as JFK wrote in his book "Profiles in Courage", "Effort and courage are not enough without purpose and direction."
This is where transparency comes in. I get the sense that all these Trump appointees just what to lay it on the table for all to see, especially Matt Gaetz and the new FBI director (rumored to be Kash Patel). Sunlight is the disinfectant.
Transparency will guide these new leaders.
That's the two main characteristics I see Trump seeking in the people he appoints.
DC and the MSM HATE these two characteristics so they will continue to melt has Trump appoints more people with these personal traits. People with the courage to fight and be fully transparent are their enemies.

That one is so obvious I did not mention it.

These are all people who Don't Need The Job!
From Trump on down, most of these guys are outside of the DC swamp and successful outside of government.

Another good point. A lot of young people.

It’s seemingly the only way to get uncorrupted individuals at this point.

Loyalty to trump is #1 here it seems in qualifications. Otherwise it would be a pretty bleak lineup of individuals. Very young and not a lot of political favors to use between them outside of maga.

Also the ability to communicate effectively and shut down bullshite premises the media make.

Hadn't really thought about the age of the people he's endorsing and promoting. He seems to be setting up a new wave of politicians. The young guys are tired of the old guys. Society is tired of the status quo in Washington. Vance is my age. Incredible.

It’s an absolutely amazing Cabinet.

The party of Rachel Levine doesn't get to talk about qualified appointments. STFU.

Other than loyalty what would make any of these candidates qualified for their position? Give me their big list of accomplishments that point to wild success. No what about the democrats none of that. Just lay out their biggest qualifications for the roles. It's pretty obvious trump wanted loyalty above all else.

Late X'ers and early Millennials are about to run the country and that's a good thing.

Now that they have matured, I agree. I just hope they don't become what they despise politically. It'll be a tall order not to. Political addiction is a hard drug to give up.

You think yelling "whataboutism" shields you from having your hypocrisy discussed.
It doesn't.

That and most have an ax to grind. Tulsi with the DNF list, Pete with being told he’s a Christian nationalist, Gaetz just because he’s Gaetz.
If you want to clean out the FBI, DOJ, DoD and Intel….which is easier? Firing people or having them resign?

Which positions are you wanting that on? Nobody wants to go through 10-15 people on here, or at least not likely. They are all qualified. Gaetz is an attorney, served in state and national politics. I think the thing is, I can go on and on, on all of them, but you don't like Trump and are going to discount all of them regardless. They are all accomplished, and it isn't hard to research the one's you'd like to.

Gaetz would be a good start. And the fox news anchor as well.
