COLUMBIA -- Lt. Gov. Henry McMaster told The Post and Courier on Wednesday that he and Gov. Nikki Haley are being considered for cabinet positions in the administration of President-elect Donald Trump.

McMaster said Haley is being considered for several cabinet posts including secretary of state. McMaster, one of Trump’s earliest statewide political endorsers, said the daughter of Indian immigrants could provide a fresh set of eyes of foreign affairs.

He said the Trump campaign is looking at him as attorney general, and that he has been speaking with the transition team.

Nikki Haley is a politically correct squish. Hire her as the official lemonade maker for tea party meetings. Trump could also put her in charge of dead Indian elephants that wash ashore at Charleston.

You have to be ready for that side because it will show itself. Ivanka was clearly a Dem prior to this. Her husbands side of his family was Dem. His Uncle Murray was Republican..one of the many feuds between murray and charles Kushner

Trump is the right man for the job for right now even if we don’t like some of what he will end up doing

McMaster who is Lt Governor is awesome. He was the only SC politician to endorse Trump from the start. I was hoping he would run against Lindsey Graham in 2018.

Nikki Haley is why its a bad idea to put anchor babies into positions of power.

She needs to get naturalized before she gets deported.

What is not publicly known is that Trump will be basing his final decision on comments posted at Free Republic.

Hear ya. Her flag position and demonizing the South and very people who voted for her was my very first thought.

Well, that’s a GREAT comment :)

I JUST found out she ditched the Dixie which is disappointing, and I’m from NY.

Is the American Flag about killing the Indians?

That’s how absurd equating the Dixie flag to slavery is.

Didn’t get one positive reply about her.

As a South Carolinian, I would be happy to have these two leave office in the Palmetto State. Conversely, I do not want to punish the rest of the nation.

So much for draining the swamp if the Haley rumor is true.

Lt. Gov. Henry McMaster told The Post and Courier on Wednesday that he and Gov. Nikki Haley are being considered for cabinet positions...

Just the fact that he would say that suggests nothing is further from the truth. And IF he was in consideration and said that, he sure as hell isn't now.

Trump will LOSE SC in 4 years if he picks Haley. She is RINO to the core. Politically correct...just ask her what happened to the Confederate flag that was flying over a CONFEDERATE cemetery. Swayed by PC liberal public opinion.

"I don't know about McMaster, ..."

Think Boss Hogg with the voice of Foghorn Leghorn. McMaster is the stereotypical good old boy Southern politician with no real accomplishments except being elected.
