Before President Donald Trump took office — and even before he was elected — there was a sizable collection of Republicans who fell into the camp of “Never Trumpers.”

So when the president-elect began his string of interviews at Mar-a-Lago, the names weren’t as familiar as previous GOP-led administrations. For many, that has affected the perceived strength of his cabinet.

He joined The Show to provide his perspective.
