Anti-nepotism rules would prohibit a President Trump from naming one of his children to the Cabinet, just as they will prohibit a President Clinton from naming her husband or daughter to it.

For the FBI, I'm leaning more toward Bernie Kerik. There won't be no stinking EPA because he doesn't need any agencies founded by traitorous liberal Demoncrats* and as for Alex Jones...he's going to have to take the job of White House Press Secretary because the FCC chair has already been promised to Sheldon Adelson.

*yes, I am aware Richard Nixon, founder of the EPA, was no Democrat.

The real one? Downthread it claims Reince Priebus (who stands to get fired...or fired UPON, same thing here...the day after the election) is on Trump's short-finger list to be Chief of Staff.
