You can probably pencil in Ben Carson as Surgeon General.

I read Christie could be out b/c of Bridge-gate.

Also KellyAnne Conway would seem to be a shoo-in for Press Secretary, maybe even Chief of Staff.

I think Preibus going all in for Trump made that even more likely, little chance he gets another term as RNC chair.

Sharp lady. :nod:

Proves intelligent women support Trump (sorry, JSO).

Speaking of idiots, Amanda Carpenter is a clown of the highest order. She is on CNN saying that Paul Ryan has a plan and is ready to go. Hello Amanda...RYAN didn't win. :lol:

I think Bridgegate does keep Christie from the AG job - that's going to Guiliani or someone not really in the campaign. But I think he finds a place for Christie somewhere, just not sure where.

It was surreal seeing Amarosa up on stage last night during the victory speech. We live in interesting times.

Well that's what I said when I saw Gingrich up there ^^^^^^


At least Bolton has foreign policy chops (and pretty good ones - agree with them or no)

Will Alex Jones get a cabinet post, settle for press secretary... or just "senior advisor"?

Bolton is one smart mofo. He'd be a hardliner with the Iranians and tough on Putin.

Plenty of room for him at the buffet line...well actually not physical space, but you get the idea.

On a serious note, not sure why Christie would get anything considering bridge-gate. Trump needs to distance him there.

Probably should put him in charge of media relations...you know since he was one of the few news outlets (if you want to call him that) that called a Trump win all along.

He's as shrewd as Lavrov and I think they would respect each other. Both Clinton and Kerry have been dismissive of Lavrov and that's not how you make headway with cold war era Russians

Given her early support for Trump (much to my chagrin), I wouldn't be surprised to see him float Sarah Palin for a Cabinet position. Big Oil better watch out if he makes her Secretary of Energy. Interior might also be a spot for her, given her interest in the Great Outdoors. State would be too much to hope for, in all likelihood....
