    Im not american maybe someone can explain:

    The president just chooses whoever he wants for specific roles in the administration? Thats a News Host?

    Can he also just pick a UPS driver too?

    This is wild. Or is this dude someone really important, the article only said he was in military vet and fox news host?

    I’d go insane if my president would add our news hosts into such a position LOL. This is comedy. Is this real? Am I stupid? Can someone explain what is going on to someone who isn’t from US?

      The only constitutional requirement is that cabinet posts must be made with the advice and consent of the Senate.

      This guy is a yes man, the only requirement apparently. As an American, it is verifiably insane.
