What in the name of fuck does a former surgeon know about urban planning?

He had some opinions on architecture in the middle east.

You're referring to Carson's contention that the pyramids built to be grain silos? Right, he'll be great for HUD/s.

Urban planning is not something you learn by playing Sim City or Cities Skyline. It requires an higher education.

I'm not saying he should only promote bureaucrats and professional polticians, I'm saying he should promote someone with at least some knowledge of the job. Carson might be a decent pick for health (because it's actually his field) but for urban planning I'd be thinking civil engineers, economists, developers etc.

Its probably some kind of political favor.

Carson is among the few that hasn't spit on donald 24/7 during his entire campaign.
