President trump needs an engineering adviser [Spectral Lines]

Donald Trump, let an engineer help you. We get that you find scientists-despite their amazing feats of discovery and selfless pursuit of new knowledge-too ideological, independent, and consumed by contentious claims about climate. So like the last Republican president, you will probably go a long time before selecting a science adviser (George W. Bush had been in the White House over seven months before he chose a physicist). Here's a bold idea: Why not break with tradition and do without a science adviser? Why not choose an engineering adviser instead? Engineers make things work, and keep them working, which is exactly what you need to succeed.
