How in the hell is a Royal Family ok In America?

What has become of the common sense that used to understand nepotism was a bad thing. It didn't bring us the best and brightest just all the bad characteristics of the originator. When did it become acceptable to have daughter wives with special privileges and unelected Son"s in law becoming quasi President with sweeping powers?

We are paying him to have everybody do his work for him. the ones however doing that is his family just like a dictatorship.

3. It isn't ok.

And I don't think many people think that it is ok.

4. There is a long history of Presidents appointing family members

to official or unofficial positions within the government. For example, John Adams appointed his son, son-in-law, and brother-in-law to positions within the government.

JFK appointed Bobby and Sarge Shriver.

Bill gave Hillary a West Wing office.

The difference is that more recent family appointees have had experience in public service, whereas Trump's family members have no such experience at all (of course, neither does Trump himself).

5. "Run the country, kids. Have a good time."

It was bad enough when he said it about the phony "blind trust" in which they would manage his assets.
