To be fair, that's an important qualification for the job regardless of who is president. It's just the political loyalty that's a bad requirement.

- refurb 11mo agoWhy would political loyalty be bad? These are cabinet positions, not representatives of the voters whose actions change with changing voter sentiment. The cabinet is chosen to implement the President’s policies. It would be odd to select for people opposed to the policies or those would actively try and stop them through leaks.
- SR2Z 11mo agoPolitical loyalty is not bad (to a degree) but it is never good when it replaces actual competence as the main qualification, or when the required degree of loyalty is unreasonable.
