President Donald Trump’s cabinet picks prove it’s possible to find common ground in a politically divided America.

As of Feb. 5, the U.S. Senate has confirmed all of Trump’s nominees — most recently former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as U.S. attorney general.

Trump is excelling at something rarely tried in today’s partisan political climate: finding commonalities across party lines.

His administration includes Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, a former financial manager for George Soros, as well as  Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a Republican senator from Florida. He nominated Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., both former Democrats who — while breaking from their party — are far from MAGA Republicans.

At Hillsdale, sharing interests, goals, and opinions may be common, but it’s a skill worth practicing. The Roman Catholic and the Calvinist can bond over a love for medieval Europe.  The English major and the biochemistry major can enjoy Club Soccer. The Republican and the Libertarian can play strategy board games together.

Finding commonalities now will enrich your life at Hillsdale and will only help you when you leave the conservative, Christian bubble.
