Those are the only good picks he has made so far. Which is probably why the swamp hates it.
There have definitely been some disappointing - and outright insulting - picks, but I'd say more than just these two are good. Homan seems good, potentially great, and Stephen Miller will likely be good too, and Zeldin could be good if he stays in his lane.
And of course Elon and Vivek will be interesting.
But yeah, overall pretty lackluster, and invokes some serious head scratching.
I don't really think they are all that bad. Frankly, he has a lot better team, and a stronger MAGA team than he had in his first term.
I will say that we should all be clear that he is more than willing to fire people who don't pull their weight.
I mean...that's a pretty damn low bar but, yeah, I agree.
And yeah, it's great that Trump is willing to fire people. Let's see if he will fire the right people, for the right reasons.
