13 of the 16 are WHITE MEN. Then you have
Elaine Chao (wife of Mitch McConnell...isn't that a conflict of interest?) Taiwanese American
Nikki Haley. Indian American (not native American..the other Indian)
Ben Carson. African American
There you have it. The first cabinet without a Latino or Latina since 1989. Retrogressive isn't it? The Donald does have those 3 token non-whites but they won't give him any trouble. They know their place.
