Trump's New Cabinet Called a "Motley Collection of Believers"While history hasn't yet given a nickname for President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet and his executive team, it's starting to look like he's surrounding himself with men and women of faith. (Washington, DC)—[CBN News] Abraham Lincoln had his "Team of Rivals." John F. Kennedy had his "Wise Men."
