President-elect Donald Trump has instructed his team not to recommend staffers for his incoming administration who have worked with or been endorsed by several prominent Republicans, some of whom he referred to with derogatory nicknames, and individuals he says are suffering from 'Trump Derangement Syndrome'. The list includes Charles Koch, whom he accuses of leading 'Americans for No Prosperity', former National Security Advisor 'Dumb as a Rock' John Bolton, former UN Ambassador 'Birdbrain' Nikki Haley, former Vice President Mike Pence, 'Disloyal Warmongers' Dick Cheney and his 'Psycho daughter' Liz Cheney, Senator Mitt Romney, former Speaker Paul Ryan, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, and former Defense Secretaries James Mattis and Mark Esper.
