#1 All good picks so far. I have some issues with Sessions, but as an AG I think he will do well.

So far, not seeing anything from Trump that is making me cringe, and as a libertarian that is a good thing.

#5 Now, here’s the kink in the mix – Alabama Governor Robert Bentley just recently changed his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat (April 2015)...

This is an April Fools joke. Didn't happen.

#7 I'm thinking Trump is sending up a lot of trial balloons to test public opinion. It doesn't matter who Trump chooses they are going to take hits from the opposition. It's the nature of life in the swamp.

#8 I'm thinking that Trump is tossing out lots of raw meat just to watch the media snap their jaws, snarl and foam at the mouth. Good times.
