Filibuster flip-flop

Cabinet full of “losers” 
With all of the rhetoric of being "the best" or "the most American", Donald Trump's decisions for who he wants in his cabinet is a list full of "losers" or people who have lost in previous elections. But this isn't a new trend. We've seen plenty of political candidates including future presidents fail before they were ever in office. From House campaigns all the way up to the White House itself, politics is full of "losers". Adam Gardiner and Rusty Cannon take a look at the relationship between race losers and cabinet nominees.
