Nanker Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 He should enlist the two ladies from the Youtube videos. Absolutely! They know how to spin a story like nobody's business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 For a guy who opposed the Iraq War (except for saying "I guess" on the Howard Stern show), Bolton for SoS seems like an odd choice. Of course selecting Pence, who like Hilkary, was a true beliver, was odd as well IMHO but seemed to work for him. Hopefully Trump doesn't pick Bolton. I really DO hope that he picks Katrina Pierson for White House Press Secretary. That could be a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someplace where she can keep her mouth closed because she is one dumb sumunabitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolton made sense to me as UN Ambassador...you want an aggressively crotchety old fart in that sort of a group setting. But one-on-one with heads of state? I don't quite see it. Of course, the real reason he's under consideration? They're both the same shade of orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Franklin Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Guiliani for State? What qualifications does he have internationally? At least Roos Bolton has traveled the seven kingdoms. Edited November 15, 2016 by Benjamin Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I suspect Rudy had to work with the Italian government when he took down the Commission Maybe. But I'm pretty sure as mayor of NYC, you have some interaction with foreign governments. Still a questionable choice, at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a questionable choice, at best. Rudy to State is not being widely picked up but some outlets are discussing it. Maybe a trial balloon. Not much written press reaction so maybe that balloon will fly. Makes no sense why he'd be the one or why he'd want it. Dealing with governments from within the confines of NYC is a lot different than playing a leading role on the world stage. (Rudy having experience with governments as mayor of NYC is akin to your girl Palin having Russia experience from sitting in AK.)

Do you think this qualifies him for Secretary of State? I traveled 440,000 air miles in 2015-16. That doesn't make me a candidate to be ambassador to the UN.
