Please, Mr. Trump: Can you "Guilfoyle" another Floridian for us?

In case you haven’t been paying attention, a disproportionate number of Florida Republicans will be shipping out to serve in the upcoming Trump Administration.

His chief of staff, Susie Wiles, is a political consultant from Jacksonville. U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, Trump’s pick for Secretary of State, is a Miami guy, and Trump’s attorney general pick, Pam Bondi, was a former Florida attorney general from the Tampa area.

The list goes on: Paul Atkins for Security and Exchange Commission Chairman, Jared Isaacman to head NASA, and U.S. Rep. Mike Waltz, a House member from St. Augustine as the National Security Advisor.

Palm Beach resident, Dr. Mehmet Oz has been tapped for Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Former Florida Space Coast congressman Dave Weldon, is slated to be the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

All his local courtiers and hangers-on won't have to leave Florida. A gilded throne will be erected in the Mar-a-Lago ballroom and everyone, even heads of state, will be required to make a pilgrimage to South Florida to pay homage to our new monarch.
