The Trump administration is being set up to quickly advance the President's vision in all areas. Eight years ago, Donald Trump was unsure of himself as he prepared to take power from Barack Obama. Now he's confident, maybe even too self-assured.
Selecting Matt Gaetz as Attorney General is a giant middle finger to the Justice Department. Gaetz will be a wrecking ball in there, pretty much dismantling the entire apparatus. He'll nuke the swamp rather than just drain it.
But the Florida Congressman will have a tough time in the confirmation process, and the Senate is not a lock to hire him. The media will crucify Gaetz, and things will get bloody fast. Here's the question: does the country need that kind of exposition?
The other Trump cabinet people will pretty much sail through, although Governor Noem will also get hammered by the media.
It is clear to me that President Trump will charge into the White House with a fierce payback attitude. That can be good because villains abound. But on the other hand, vast power is never easy to control.
History proves it.
See you tonight for the No Spin News.
