Trump Must Name A Cabinet, "Reassure Us His Attorney General Won't Go After Personal Enemies"
Real Clear Politics ^ | 7/17/2016 | Tim Haines

Posted on 07/18/2016 10:48:51 AM PDT by orchestra

Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol airs his concerns about Donald Trump being the Republican nominee one last time before the Republican National Convention. "It would be a wise thing to do at this convention," he said, "to talk about the kinds of people he would have --reassure people who your Secretary of State is going to be, reassure us that his Attorney General is not going to go after his personal enemies." "Instead, if it going to be this ridiculous personality show, with his wonderful family, the three wives -- that's what he wants to do though. He doesn't want to talk about issues." "While I don't know if he'll name a cabinet," GOP strategist Alex Castellanos said, defending Trump. "You're going to see a bunch of people of that stature -- Chris Christie, Newt Gingrich--" "Oh yeah, that's going to reassure people," Kristol quipped. "Those people are going to be on the news all week," Castellanos said. "Character matters," Kristol said. "If [Trump] can show some character, and not just personality, I think he has a chance. So far he has shown no character."

Bill Kristol wants to throw sh*t, but not have it thrown back at him.

You mean like the ObaMao Administration's AG and IRS did?

Makes me wonder what Kristol is really worried about.

Has Kristol been anywhere near as concerned about Obama and the Clintons going after their personal enemies?

Naming a cabinet would be very presumptuous and would probably cost him.

Well would you look at that! Bill K. has slowly reached the “Bargaining” state.
I think the next state of mind will be “Acceptance”, albeit begrudgingly.

Not many care what Kristol says anymore. His kind of republican party, the one that sits around and begs the liberal media to like them, is the one people are sick of.

I do not think he can name a cabinet, because he doesn’t have the authority yet to offer them a job. He can say he would pick someone like Newt Gingrich for Chief Justice, but he cannot say he would pick him. If I understand it correctly.

Trump must this, must that, must, must , must...

The only thing he MUST do is follow through on his promises to the voters!

Little Billy has his panties in a wad. Payback is a bitch and kicking you out of the party is enough to cut the income from his little con game in half.

Just wow. I would expect this from the Dems. The GOPe needs to step back. They have lost control of the Party.

Next AG must go after Kristol for being off his rocker.

Hey Kristal you effing idiot, you mean like the hag Clinton, Eric Holder and the obozo do? I trust Trump WILL go after anyone who breaks the LAW.

So what does the GOPe have to hide that Trump’s administration could find? This is weird.

Rudi would be best at homeland security after what happened to NYC on 911. CIA might even be better. That GOP congressman quit after 18 months. There’s something going on there.
