>> don't you think it would of been better for Trump to just pick a less controversial person?

He did select the very safe Reince Priebus for Chief of Staff which is said to be one of the most powerful positions in Washington. Comment about that seems muted compared to the rush to criticize his choice of chief strategist and senior counselor.

I suppose he could try harder to appease enemies, but it takes two to tango and so far there's too much hate. I presume you've seen the "Rape Melania" trending on Twitter? At this stage he's justified in shrugging off the "damned if you do and damned if you don't" brigade to do whatever suits himself best.
