Do you remember the last Republican National Convention, where private citizen after private citizen came up to praise Donald J. Trump and, uncannily, pretty much every one of them turned out to either be on Donald J. Trump's current payroll or was engaged in some financial venture with him? Team Trump has carried that grand tradition into the White House, with a press release praising their latest executive order filled out with quotes from da Team Trump people that wrote it.
I am proud to stand with the President as he leads on prioritizing American workers and American products first. These Buy American, Hire American initiatives will stimulate economic and wage growth, while ensuring that our government is using high quality products that are Made in the U.S.A. Steven Mnuchin, Secretary of the Treasury [...]
This historic act of leadership from President Trump makes unequivocally clear that this Administration will serve and protect the American worker fighting for fair trade and immigration policies that promote rising wages and employment for our hardworking citizens. Stephen Miller, Senior Advisor to the President for Policy.
The press release is in fact titled Senior Administration Officials Praise President Donald J. Trumps Buy American, Hire American Executive Order, perhaps because Executive Order Praised By White House Staffers Who Would Be Fired If They Didn't was a bit too on-the-nose.

fighting and NO agreement. Must be prior employees or just friends from somewhere else.
