First step for Sec of State: fire the top ten layers and the bottom ten layers of the whole staff. Top ten because they made this mess, and the bottom ten because they were hired by the top ten and happily did their bidding.

I certainly hope Trump has the sense to avoid having nothing but septuagenarians (or older!) in key positions.
Seems like following FR advice would get his Administration labeled ‘The Get Off My Lawn Gang’.

Newt will be a tsar in charge of overseeing big changes in the federal government. Like how do you overhaul the VA to make if more efficient?
To: WayneS
they ARE spilling over into those states and others, given the resettlement of Syrians Iraqis Somalis and Afghans taking place..

IMHO, Bolton is the best choice with his experience and disdain for all things UN!

State is a snake pit. How many times did we witness entrenched State bureaucrats subtly sabotage Bush?

Bolton is a good choice.
I don't believe Trump would consider Corker.

“NOT GOOD!! NeoCon!!!!”
Oh, please! Bolton will do as he is told - and he is extremely pro-US (which is a distinct improvement over the last 2 in that position). He won’t be able to push the war option so easily with a non-neoCon sitting in the Oval Office. There will be other foreign and defense policy people helping out with the decision-making process - he won’t be Kissinger, doing it all by himself.
As for Corker: NOOOOOOOOOOOO! Let’s remember who was the co-sponsor of the surrender document in the Senate to allow Barky to shove the Iran deal up our rear ends.

Bolton would be an incredible choice. They guy is one of the most knowledgeable people on world affairs out there. Plus, the Dems heads would explode.

IMHO, Bolton is the best choice with his experience and disdain for all things UN! So who would be a good person to complement Bolton at the UN?
Somebody like Michelle Bachmann?

Newt is 73 now, and I think has money problems. He likely needs to take the highest offer, which isn’t the less-than-$200k the SoS gets, and I doubt he wants to influence-peddle like Hillary. There’s more money and less stress being a national commentator.

Bolton despises the UN. He has said that the only justification for allowing their presence on American soil is to be able to keep an eye on them.
