MSNBC Host Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Stacking Second Term With ‘Political Losers’

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin on Sunday said a “striking pattern” is emerging among Donald Trump’s picks for roles in the president-elect’s upcoming second term. “We’re seeing a whole lot of political losers, people defeated in elections in just about every way imaginable,” Mohyeldin noted. “It might seem odd for Trump to choose so many political losers,” said Mohyeldin. But Trump “has repeatedly said the biggest mistake of his first term was choosing the ‘wrong people’” who sometimes “pushed back against his policies.” Trump’s batch of second-term picks are getting “new political life” and so will be “entirely malleable and dependent on his will,” he added.
