NA | 14 Feb 2013 | meh

One individual who should be at the top of Trump's list as a replacement for Mike Flynn, is former Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, currently Executive Vice President at Family Research Council.

A published list would help take some of the MSM attention off Flynn, and build a consensus with input from more than a few insiders, who may are may not be working in the best interests of the country or president. I thought Trump’s idea of such for SC nominees a good one.

General Kellogg or Admiral Harward. I’m more interested in someone who will give President Trump good, solid national security advice than someone put in place merely to piss off the media.

Either one of these would be a good choice, certainly better than some of the other names I see floating around here. Petraeus has too much baggage, and Bolton would push to give us a retread of Bush foreign policy.

Whomever shares Flynn’s view of Islam, i.e. Islam IS the problem, and shares his ideas of combatting it along with political correctness.

Petraeus is not up to the task.

Trump’ll make a mistake if he brings in a Russia-hater

Marie Harf just recommended Petraeus so that is another strike against him.

Islam IS the problem...

Agree, along with the MB apparently embedded within our agencies.

Boykin is equal to or better than Flynn concerning knowledge of the dangers of Islamism.

Indeed, and Petraeus ISN'T of blackmail concern? Which is one of the reasons cited for removing Flynn.

The senate had to confirm USSC nominees
No one has to,confirm the POTUS National Security Advisor
Nor should they
That’s how someone as stupid as Susan Rice could get a job in the WH

Building a consensus is the surest way to fight the headwinds building against Trump, especially now, with Flynn’s resignation. The deep state and MSM are going to pile on this like mad. Just wait and see what happens over the next few days and weeks.

There is no building a consensus on this appointment with the people who took out Flynn, or with the democrats

You give them one of their own, or they undermine you

Trump needs his own man and screw taking a show of hands among the GOPe the democrats and the media

I say Admiral Mike Rogers because Brennan and Clapper tried to take him down and he made his own private trip to talk to Trump
You know a man by his enemies

He should bring in a long time Washington pro who has been around and knows how the RATS & RINOS operate. Currently he is surrounded by inexperienced help.
