In the two weeks between Trump's appointments of common core DeVos and open-borders Puzder, Jeb Bush figured it was prudent not to lay it on too thick

As Ann Coulter has pointed out, the only difference between a Trump cabinet and a Jeb Bush cabinet is a Jeff Sessions.

December 8th

November 23rd

With a 2-seat margin in the US Senate, Ted Cruz and Jeff Sessions should stay where they are and not join the Trump administration

There'll be time to promote them later.

Trump needs Sessions to carry the water on immigration, and Cruz needs to prove himself to us on the issue.

Trump also needs Cruz to keep the Freedom Caucus in line in Congress to get the agenda passed.

If Cruz loses in Texas in 2018, he can always be rewarded with a post as a consolation prize. 

Laugh of the Day: With Jeff Sessions Trump now has more Senate support than both Cruz and Sanders!
