Sure, Jan.
Putting a fascist in a position of power creates diversity of thought in the same way that polluting a river adds flavor to drinking water.
We can have diversity of thought without indulging fascists. Germany's been doing it for almost a century now.
Cabinet positions are advisory and have little actually power. And not everyone "who was a Republican" is a fascist.
Perhaps my bolding and italics wasn't enough. Was is in the past tense. As in not currently.
I have bad eye sight, so yes, it wasn't, but that's not your fault. Thanks for clarifying.
The downvoters can eat a dick.
Also it's a sad fact that a lot of people here in the US think we can't have true freedom of speech if we don't let Nazis and fascists get equal air time.
