From the article below, outside of Ken Cuccinelli, I have never heard of any of these people. This almost like taking a list of people right out of the phone book.
Additional members of the alliance, as confirmed Wednesday, include: former Department of Homeland Security Acting Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli; Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General at the Office of Legal Counsel Henry Whitaker; former Chief of Staff to the Attorney General William Levi; former Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy & Interagency Coordination Carlos Diaz-Rosillo; George "Jed" Doty and Christopher Cooke from the White House Counsel’s Office; former Chief of Staff for Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs at the Department of Energy Nick Cattroppo; former Chief of Staff for the Director of National Intelligence Dustin Carmack; former Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Defense Ryan Newman; and Jason Weida, who served in the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Policy.>
Other individuals who have joined the coalition include Juan Cruz, who served on the White House’s National Security Counsel as the senior director for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and former U.S. Attorneys Nick Trutanich (Nevada), Jay Town (Northern District of Alabama), John Anderson (New Mexico), Trent Shores (Northern District of Oklahoma) and Mike Hurst (Southern District of Mississippi).>
Thank you for that list. Now, how many actually required Trump's specific endorsement as evidenced by him sending them to the Senate for approval? the former US attorneys required nomination and approval and I think Cuccinelli was confirmed in a different role at DHS, but not sure how many Deputy Assistants require Senate approval. However, that may not make any difference because ALL of these are Presidential Appointees

So mostly attorneys then, and some deputies and/or people that had literally zero power to influence anyone. Shocking.
