‘Make Yourself Winners’: Donald Trump Promises Libertarians In Cabinet If Third-Party Supports Him
Donald Trump promised the Libertarian Party on Saturday he would appoint officials from their party to positions in his administration if he is elected.
That's weird, isn't it? Shouldn't he be hiring on merit? I thought we were going to go back to a meritocracy.
Of course it will be on merit and he probably already knows who he is going to hire, even regardless of the nomination. This is pure art of the deal.
Oh it will be on merit. On a campaign alone in one department there can be 10,000 applications from the brightest students out there, in all different capacities. Always if you win a race it's nice to hire some with similar points of view while exceptionally qualified.
This is a good point. I think we need a libertarian view-point in most cabinet positions.
Ron Paul, while registered as a Republican, was in reality a libertarian.
I don't think so. Most Libertarians are more qualified simply by understanding freedom and its nature better than anyone in the Uniparty (TM) Mike Lee, libertarian leaning (R).
