No need to be a wise**s. I do know he promised there would be no lobbyists in his administration, and believe any appointees also had to agree not to become a lobbyist for longer than the usual period after leaving. What I was asking Mike was why he started this thread. Sounds like the pledge may have been broken but Mike gives no clue how. Hence my question to him.
