    Donald Trump likes to keep his 'enemies' closer



    This is an interesting tweet from Schiff.

    Kudlow used to be a free market guy who was worried about deficit spending... Then he joined the administration and is now silent about the biggest deficits in history, socialism by the back door and a massive expansion of the national debt!

    Then I notice Donald has appointed the former 'Freedom' Caucus chairman Mark Meadows (R-NC) as chief of staff and is going to appoint him as leader on the task force to 're-open' the economy.

    Meadows fiscal conservatism and the whole reason he was elected as a congressman has gone out of the window much like Kudlow.

    DC, the Swamp , whatever you want to call it seems to have an effect here.

    Trump does believe in handing out plumb jobs to once principled critics can buy their silence. It's no coincidence IMO. There must be other examples further down the food chain.

    The ones he can't bring to heel like Massie and Amash are the targets of irate tweets.

    One thing is for sure , Donald ain't draining the swamp he is perpetuating it beyond all imagination.

    And i bet there's hundreds in junior positions that have come from 'right wing' think tanks. Now part of the DC set their principles have been abandoned!

    He's not buying them off, I don't think they are making more money working for Trump. They are increasing their status, though.

    But I absolutely do buy that Trump is hiring deep state neocons for reasons other than he wants to follow their advice.

    Oh come on Dannno these are plush jobs working in the White House and being the center of attention. They do get paid handsomely as well.

    These people have all changed their ways because Trump has given them a title and prestige job.

    I've noticed it's his M.O. from the start. Why he surrounded himself with all these horrible Neocons in important policy positions.

    "Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer."

    No it wasn't Don Corleone. It was Sun Tzu.

    That's proof enough he keeps his friends close. But it tells us nothing about how he handles his enemies.
