'He came to rule the swamp' In just 24 hours, Donald Trump confirmed blatant nepotism is second on his list after corruption

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

76% : "[Boulos] is an accomplished lawyer and a highly respected leader in the business world, with extensive experience on the International scene," Trump wrote of the new appointment on Truth Social.
55% : "People responded to the news with the same brevity as Trump chowing down a Big Mac meal, with many pointing out the seeming favoritism Trump displays for members of his family and extended family.
48% : "Adding fuel to the nepotism fire, Boulos' appointment comes just days after Trump selected Charles Kushner, the father-in-law of his daughter Ivanka, to be the US ambassador to France.
41% : It should come as no surprise, given Trump's other nominations for his cabinet, that Kushner's appointment has more to do with his loyalty to Trump than any actual political experience.
39% : While the selection has some basis in Boulos' record -- having campaigned for Trump during the election to sway the Arab American vote -- it has done little to help the president-elect dodge all those nepotism allegations, which have dogged him ever since his first presidency.
25% : According to The Guardian, Trump has become increasingly reliant on his eldest son as a go-to voice on White House strategy, which might explain the sheer chaos of Trump's choices over the last few weeks.
18% : Of course, it's not the first time Trump has been accused of favoring his family members to a level that borders on corruption.
