B-Man Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Let’s Not Jinx It, But This Incoming Cabinet Looks Pretty Darn Good So Far Let’s take a look at this Trump administration cabinet nominees so far: Attorney General: Sen. Jeff Sessions. Secretary of Health and Human Services: Rep. Tom Price. Secretary of Transportation: Former Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao. Secretary of Education: Philanthropist Betsy DeVos. Ambassador to the United Nations: Gov. Nikki Haley. White House Chief of Staff: RNC Chair Reince Priebus. National Security Adviser: Former DIA Director Michael Flynn. CIA Director: Rep. Mike Pompeo. Treasury Secretary: Banker Steven Mnunchin. Secretary of Commerce: Financier Wilbur Ross. Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services: Indiana Health policy consultant Seema Verma. We may quibble with a few here and there, but overall it’s a really good group, particularly considering the perceived limited circle of connections and talent around Trump during the campaign. By and large, this is a pretty darn conservative cabinet, and one that’s sufficiently experienced, professional, and knowledgeable, prepared for the massive tasks before them. In fact, if any of the other 16 Republican presidential candidates had won, it’s easy to picture some of these same names appearing in those alternative Republican cabinets. What’s more, there’s still quite a bit of experienced managerial and legislative talent walking through the lobby of Trump Tower these days: Mitt Romney, David Petraeus, Rick Perry, retired General James Mattis, Rep. Marsha Blackburn, Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin. Perhaps most surprising is that some of the figures most loyal and visible during the campaign haven’t been named to any cabinet positions yet: Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani, and Chris Christie. (There’s the rumor, not yet officially announced, that Ben Carson will run the Department of Housing and Urban Development.)Read more at: http://www.nationalreview.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Wonder if Jeff Session will still be a state's rights advocate with pot. Or if he is only for state's rights will civil rights issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Everything he does relates to Hillary! False equivalence for everything. I thought Trump ran as a swamp drainer? Nope...he ran as Hillary I guess It depends upon how you define swamp. I think most define that as politicians in office now who have contributed to $19T debt, underfunded entitlements, national security breaches, wreckless illegal immigration and a stagnant economy.

DC Tom Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 So here's something I haven't seen anyone mention yet... If Petraeus is offered a cabinet position, he has to notify his probation officer within three days, who I believe may have the authority to prevent Petraeus from taking the position, given that Petraeus' probation terms restrict him to North Carolina. And, according to the terms of his probation, his office equipment - computers, government emails, office records, etc. - would be subject to warrantless search until next April. Yeah, let's do this. A Secretary of State who can't go on a diplomatic mission without permission from his probation officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he should get some post in the Trump administration though, but not right away. He could be in the cabinet in round 2 come 2020 if not sooner. He's the kind of competent leader that Trump seems to want around him. Sarah Palin to care for our vets?? http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/sarah-palin-consideration-va-secretary/story?id=43878336 You betcha!
