VIDEO : Jerry Falwell Jr. Compares Trump Cabinet to ’92 “DREAM TEAM”
Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. said watching President-elect Donald Trump assemble his cabinet has been like watching someone build what’s arguably the greatest basketball team of all time.
Falwell told Fox News’ Chris Wallace that Trump’s appointees remind him of the legendary 1992 United States men’s Olympic basketball team — commonly known as the “Dream Team.”
“It reminds me of the basketball dream team from the 1992 Barcelona Olympics when America was finally allowed to let professional athletes play. They beat every team by an average of 44 points. And that’s what I see,” he said on “Fox News Sunday.”
The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame described the Dream Team — which was chock-full of active NBA superstars including Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Patrick Ewing — as “the greatest collection of basketball talent on the planet.”
For Falwell, Trump’s growing cabinet is similar. The real estate mogul’s choices include ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson for secretary of state, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) for attorney general, businesswoman Betsy DeVos for education secretary, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson as secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development and Oklahoma attorney general Scott Pruitt administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.
“I think what Trump is doing with his cabinet is assembling a dream team,” Falwell said. “I think Scott Pruitt is — I’m especially excited about him.”
