The Transition Team (TT) is the birthing embryo from which policy and decisions shaped are transmogrified into the Special Units and Departments of Government.
3 children and 1 son-in-law are on the TT totaling 16. The 25% family.portion will wield the main influence as the rest are make-up numbers and don't matter. What matters is their individual savvy in floating weather balloons to test the wind directions of the moods and leanings of the Trumps before taking positions on the agendas. I have bundled the s-i-l under the Trumps for convenience of referencing. Also sorry Jared, I can't recall your family name.
How do I have this insight? I hate to say it as I seemed to have already over-made the case that Trump is Chinese. Chinese Business Tycoons, each time they acquire a new entity will inject all manner of their relatives into that entity. Inevitably, the relatives somehow muscled all the say in that entity.
All key deliberations and pending major decisions are carried over to family private meta-meetings at dinner or maybe breakfast which are off limits to non members of the kin.
The foolhardy recalcitrant who do not toe the family line will, in surprising ways, lose the opportunity to contribute any further and may even be unceremoniously expelled.
It amazes me that some political pundits on TV are struggling to comprehend why this practice of including the children into the TT had occurred. On one show, Angela Rye tried to declare the practice illegitimate labeling it "incestuous". Mike Shields on that same show tried to defend it as a kind of family assistance that had already started on the campaign trail and voters are fully aware of the practice of involving family members.
Where I come from, this would be called "Trump Nepotism". Nepotism is tolerated in the Business World but in Government there are stringent laws to check abuses. Perhaps there are such laws in the US, yet to be raised in Trump's situation.
A litmus test of this TT's mettle would be whether Steve Bannon will be appointed WH Chief of Staff. I am sure Mr Robert Mercer wants to cash in some of his chips after his generous campaign donations. I have addressed Mr Mercer as Mr which I don't even do for Trump because Mr Mercer is now the Most Powerful Man on this planet.
Yes Sir, Mr Mercer, Sir, 3 Bags Full, Sir!!!
