President Trump is set to nominate Richard Grenell, a veteran Republican foreign affairs spokesman, to serve as ambassador to NATO, several news outlets reported Wednesday.
Grenell is an outspoken Trump supporter who served as a spokesman for John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, and several other GOP-appointed U.N. ambassadors.
An openly-gay Republican, Grenell would be one of the highest-ranking gay members of the Trump administration.
An official said Wednesday morning that the White House could not confirm the appointment of Grenell.
Great! Fantastic!
A Trump loyalist and supporter as Amb to NATO.
cant we just find a non-fag to the job?
Great pick!!!!
I guess his qualifications for the job exceeded all others, and the federal govt. still practices non-discriminatory hiring.
Great. We send a queer to be the face of America's military might overseas - and they laugh at us.
The guy has been a staunch defender of Trump for many months. As for being a fag, he’ll fit right in at NATO.
They’ve been laughing at us for 8 years. Hard to believe he cannot find a single non-poofter ass muncher in the entire Armed Forces to deal with NATO.
My point.
I was hoping we could send a Patton over there to jerk them out of their Obama-era trance.
I’m thrilled this guy got an appointment. He’s been a terrific Trump defender.

Long before Trump even ran for president, Grenell was a defender of the USA and it’s sovereignty. He’d be a good appointment in any administration.
I’m with you...Grenell is very smart, knows how the system works and actually loves America.
This will be quite a change.
I agree, Grenell is very good.
He defends anyone he thinks might get him a high paying job, He was Mitt Romney’s national campaign spokesman in 2012. So many conservatives raised hell about him Romney got rid of him. A long time member of the Log Cabin Republicans he said before Obama’s acceptance speech in 2009 he would support Obama if he would say in his acceptance speech he was for “marriage equality”. So he sounds like a real, committed Republican. I guarantee you Ivanka had something to do with the selection, I would love for Tony Perkins of Focus on the Family, Pastor Jeffrees and a few more Chrustians to try and stop the nomination.
Well we completely disagree because the fight against marriage equality is over. The American people have accepted it and it’s time to move on.
“Well we completely disagree because the fight against marriage equality is over. The American people have accepted it and it’s time to move on.”
This board is for conservatives. No conservative would use the ridiculous term “marriage equality.” If you or anyone else thinks sodomite “marriage” won’t be overturned you’re wrong. All it will take is a couple more conservative judges on the Supreme Court and it’s history. The Supreme Court can not redefine the meaning of marriage and what it’s been since the beginning of recorded history. The same goes for murdering babies in the womb.
You used the term marriage equality I just usually call it gay marriage. It’s not going to be history because the people are for it. If that’s the battle you want to fight it’s lost. Even if the court overturns it, which I doubt, it will be legalized in most states. I spend my time worrying about immigration, trade, the economy, and national defense. Like our great President does.
