Donald Trump baffled many when he tweeted in favor of an ambassadorship for Vogue editor Anna Wintour. Of course, thats only a rumor but Trump elaborated on his support for Wintour when he called into Fox & Friends on Monday. She would do an amazing job, he said.
Wintour is rumored to be in the running for an ambassadorship to the UK or France. A strong Obama supporter, she was one of his big bundlers during the campaign.
Gretchen Carlson segued into the topic by noting that she and Trump actually agree on this issue. She doesnt have a problem with it, she said, because ambassadorships, in many cases, are political favors to people who raised a lot of money on them.
I dont view it as a favor, Trump replied. I think this is a favor to the country.
He went on to praise her as a very capable person, who is tough, smart, and gets it. Especially in the over in the UK, he said, which is her territory, she would run it so well. She would do things I think nobody else could do in that position.
The praise based on her being very competent, Trump said. He went on to highlight the amazing job shes done at Vogue and characteristically took a shot at other magazines namely, New York. Theyre terrible.
Look at the job shes done at Vogue, he said. Its been absolutely amazing, and I think that she would be an amazing choice. I think she would be truly a great ambassador.

The Devil Likes Pravda?
Trump's a dope.
Yeah, he knows how to make lots of money but that, in no way, detracts from his astounding dopedom.
It gets the b!tch out of the country for awhile.
Exactly what important things would the ambassador to France or England do, anyway?
Seems to me they are about as necessary as Queen Elizabeth. Heck, somebody is going to be appointed to do nothing important and parade around at all the posh parties, may as well be her.
Now, if she were being pushed as ambassador to Israel, or Turkey, or China...different story.
How can anyone who voted for Obama. “Get it”
She is an idiot, . An even bigger fool than Trump who is a natural born POS.
Maybe she can take Bob Marley with her
This is what stupid looks like.
Wonder if stupid got those college records yet...
The master of hyperbole has zero credibility.
he did yeoman’s work making conservatives look like freaks in the election, so I guess Obama owes him one.
