She’s a swamp drainer if there ever was one.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yes, that is a good way to describe her. She’s a woman with brass balls!

Communism isn’t an external threat within the jurisdiction of the SOS or even the DOD. It’s out there, sure. But the real Communist threat is inside. Inside our children’s schools, our colleges and universities, our mass media. It’s most of the Democratic Party. It’s in control of of our K-12 school curriculum and teachers’ unions and has been for a very long time.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There should be no doubt about this in the mind of anyone who has been paying attention. And if steps are not taken soon to eliminate this massive indoctrination it’s only a matter of time before our Constitutional Republic is destroyed by its own citizens.

KT McFarland would be a nice choice.

John Bolton supports gay marriage. It may not be an issue as SOS, but it brings his judgment into question.

Sounds like the "Kiss of Death".

Or maybe a Voodoo Curse.

Can’t think of anyone better for SOS. And I’ve been saying it from the beginning. You FRers want newbies?? Ridiculous.

National Review doesn't matter. Hugh Hewitt doesn't matter.

Trump knows exactly what Trump wants, and he knows how to hire the best. Bolton is competent and articulate, and he doesn't mind a fight. If Trump wants Bolton, they will work things out between them, and Bolton will do a fine job -- or he'll be fired.

I like that! How about this one?

Do what your enemy wishes, for this reason alone - that you won’t do what your enemy really wished you wanted to do.

Double espionage junk.

We can’t afford to be conciliatory in the world. We have done that for 8 years. Time for a change. Good grief.

Well, Trump mentioned his as possible SOS a number of times before the election. He has about as much gravitas as anyone out there.

He’d be good back at the UN. He knows they are a bunch of snakes.

That’s some major league gall for the magazine that did a “Against Trump” issue to suddenly start giving him advice on what to do now.

Marco Rubio but he is too valuable in his current position.

Imagine if it were Dick Cheney?

But I am sure Trump has someone in his business that is an expert diplomat who has handled his international affairs.

Excellent suggestion. Is it required SOS must be a US citizen? Vaclav Klaus but he’s 75.

There’s a Bing headline where someone is recommending Kelly Ayotte for SecDef.

Heard a radio report tonight mentioning rumors of, if I recall, Priebus for Chief of Staff, Newt for SecState and Rudy for Homeland Security.
