Someone at the NYTimes is offended by Trump's public style.

Trump Turns Staid Process Into Spectacle as Aspirants Parade to His Door

Now, look.

You know that I am not happy about the Trump triumph (some triumph, Hillary is a million and a half votes ahead in the pop-vote) but really. Let's get some perspective.

Custom, you know how I hate fucking custom, states that the selection of a cabinet and all should be a quiet behind-the-doors affair. I have never liked this. Without knowing, actually, that I did not like it.

The idea of the Trump aspirants walking the public gauntlet to be interviewed is a good thing. We get to see what is going in if not what is going on.

Transparency.

Probably not something we were likely to get with the Clintons.

I know.

I hate this too.

But I actually like the way he is doing it and I like the choices he is making. There are no bomb-throwers. There might be a historic racist or two or a war monger here or there but we can see what we are getting.

Let's loosen up a little guys.

And let's not forget that this is all basically entertainment until it is not.

It is neat to see what is going on. If that is indeed the case.

There may be a secret cabal about to take over Washington that will take away our rights and send some of us to the gas chambers.

But probably not.

Some perspective please.
