As there is no Trump cabinet as yet, this would only be something one should do if one were prejudging, i.e. engaging in bigotry. How poetic!

That is not what the word "bigotry" means.

Oh? What definition are you using? The one I just checked in the dictionary agrees with me.

No, it doesn't. You didn't even use the word "prejudice" properly.

I didn't use the word "prejudice" at all, in fact, so technically this is correct. You're still wrong about the word "bigotry" though.

Not that I'm expecting a response, but I'm curious; were you going to assert that it is impossible to be bigoted about a white male?

Are you have a whole separate discussion in your own head and inviting me to take over the role in mid-production? Because I have no idea where that even came from, and I'm not interested in finding out.
