I don't think they have realized that yet.
3,000 Plum Jobs in Washington DC?

I'll bet those will be hard to fill!

I doubt they'll get more than a couple of million resumes come in for those.

Must suck to be a Clinton staffer that was counting on one of these. Wondering how the fuck they are going to make the payments of the upscale Georgetown Brownstone and new Beamer now.

It is about PG being able to fill 3000 jobs with the correct, competent staffers he will need to effectively run America. I bet he asks some Obama people to stay on while he is breaking in his training wheels.

Trump will do fine.

In his career he's overseen a Helluva lot more hirings than Hillary has.

Sorry Potter, but I must limit thoughtful introspective responses to posts of this nature to one per customer and you have already had yours.

I see Trump is filling his staff with pro business anti consumer advocates. Is that the platform he ran on? Protecting big business at the expense of the little guy?

Trump does not strike me as the kind of guy to let his advisors roll him.

Trump's the Big Kahuna.

It will be his way, or the Highway.
Which is even worse.

Voting for Bernie Sanders was a revolutionary act.

Voting for Trump was a revolutionary act.

I am, above all else, a revolutionary.

Therefore I am embracing Trump's victory as a victory of the common man over the ruling class.

Maybe Trump will be the working class hero he has promised to be.

Maybe he won't.

Either way the sleeping giant of the masses has woken up.

The revolution has begun and no matter how hard they try, the ruing class will not be able to put that Genie back in the bottle.
