Aha!

I think I figured it out.  Rep Tom Price for Health & Human Services.  Of course.  VP-Elect Pence is in charge of the transition team.  That pick is Pence's choice.  Whether Trump said, do your thing, I don't care or, simply, it's your call, or I owe you one, or I'm too busy focusing on the economy and foreign affairs or working on pay back to the people who trashed me -whatever - this is Pence's choice.  Fro whatever this possible insight is worth.  Does Trump even realize the potential impact of this appointment on Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security?
