The way people have been talking to each other and some of the things said by different candidates, would it be possible that the eventual GOP nominee could form his cabinet from the less successful GOP candidates.
And that is the right place for Ben.
so?
I saw that interview to. Trump being the useful idiot for the left was once again on parade. Scarborough tee’d up a massive softball, twice, by asking about Hillary and her vicious comments to Sharpton about Trump. Both times Trump didn’t even take a swing at her...in fact he put down the bat.
Then Scarborough asked him why he called Rubio ‘lazy’, and true to form, (left’s useful idiot), he hit that softball out of the park and had to wipe the froth from his chin.
A lot folks need to wake up.
Never piss-off your doctor.
Bet Carson grit his teeth on that....and will say the same thing about Trump....saying...”I was thinking the sameing”.
But it was to late in the process. Romney had already been chosen by the RNC.
Jefferson Sessions as Vice President
Department of State, (return INS.) – Donald Rumsfeld
Department of Justice – Rep. Steve King
Department of Treasury, (includes former Homeland Security - Customs) – Carl Icahn (Offered and Accepted)
Department of War, (change the name back, include VA function.) – Gen. James Mattis
Department of Interior, (includes legitimate functions only of former Transportation, Homeland Security - Border Patrol, and Energy Departments) – Gov. Palin
Department of Health and Human Services – Dr. Ben Carson
Department of Labor and Commerce – ELIMINATE
Department of Homeland Security – ELIMINATE
Department of Education – ELIMINATE as proposed by The Donald, 9/23/25 at a Columbia, SC Town Hall with Sen. Tim Scott.
Department of Energy – ELIMINATE
Department of Housing and Urban Development – ELIMINATE
Department of Veterans Affairs - ELIMINATE
Department of Agriculture – ELIMINATE
Department of Transportation - ELIMINATE
This proposed model has the President directly managing six subordinates which is optimal.
In non-cabinet level jobs
Sheriff Clarke should be FBI Director
Michelle Bachman as IRS Commissioner under Secretary Carl Icahn in Treasury
Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons as Undersecretary of War - Navy Branch.
LTC Allen West as Undersecretary of War – Army Branch.
Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway and Rochelle “Silk” Richardson would be great as President Trumps Co-Press Secretaries.
In Congress lets have Trey Gowdy as Speaker of the House,
and Ted Cruz as Senate Majority Leader.
I’m sure these type of questions need to be responded to carefully, and perhaps there would be a place in Trump’s administration for Carson, Cruz, etc. That being said, I hope Trump appoints capable people and doesn’t do the usual ‘everyone get a prize’ kind of nominating we have seen.
As I have said several times in different posts, Trump, right now is playing ‘kitty claw’...he’s putting things out there for bait, let’s sit back and watch how the others bite on this...
When Trump wins the nomination, then the gloves will come off and then you will see the ‘real Trump’ and how he goes after all of what he wants....he is in this to win, and win he will...
The GOPe, RINOs, RATS, media, talking heads are really going to have their heads spinning....
That’s the time for popcorn....watch and see....
If Trump thinks Carson would be good in a his administration, then he probably would be.
I think with DT’s background, he’s well able to figure out who would be an asset to his organization.
The only element missing is what each position is
The Democrats have nothing, not even an actual coup ... they've pretty much abdicated their position as a viable entity and have nothing left but smut slinging kindergarten tactics.
I can look past every Republican's fault(s) IF the correct president is elected and the correct office is chosen for the remaining candidates
Ben Carson f'rinstance is Surgeon General
Ted Cruz MUST be Supreme Court
Rick Santorum is religious policy czar
etc.
In a sense
A SENSE, I SAY .....
Very much like the mid 1700's, a group of like minded men are gathering in "the pub"(lic) and discussing how to correct what the original group started
Whats gonna happen is this, Trump is gonna throw out the rule book.
Carson is in, he will get a position that is best for America, may not be VP, and i suspect at least one if not several other candidates will be “hired” by Trump. Trump will dominate hugely in polls till the final “legal” election.
So this is the way i see it, all the sane intelligent useful candidates should drop out right now, no way any of them can be POTUS here, they just don’t have the numbers. They are in and will be assigned positions they are best qualifed for, same as hiring a Fortune 500 CEO.
Gone is the day of the best politician, the now and future demands skilled applicants, not friends of political friends.
And by far and wide politicians while skilled in that respect just don’t have the mindset of business. Trump and friends do.
I’m not crazy about Trump; but IF Hitlery (or any of the others) are the Democrats nominee, I will crawl over broken
glass getting to the polls to vote for Trump IF he’s the Republican nominee.
