So far, President Trump’s choices to fill vacancies in his administration have been stellar. Unfortunately, President Trump learned the hard way what happens when trust and loyalty are not at the top of the list of qualifications for candidates he chooses to interact with him and members of his cabinet regularly.

Today marks the first day that Trump supporters find themselves scratching their heads over the potential selection of former US Rep. and FBI Special Agent Mike Rogers, who recently ran for US Senate in Michigan as a Republican, as the potential FBI Director.

Mike Rogers folded like a cheap suit in a winnable Michigan Senate race

[enumerated]

I agree this is fake news, but not for the reason you cite.

President Trump doesn’t need the position to be vacant before announcing his pick for a replacement.

[zeestephen]

How did this guy win the GOP Senate Primary in Michigan?

There should have been dozens of pro-Trump disrupters at every Mike Rogers primary campaign event.

I am very glad RFK is there too… we need him to combat Bill Gates, and the deep state who will kill us and our food supply with vaccines.

Our food supply and vaccines are all intertwined now, so the head of of HHS, needs to also be the head of the FDA and USDA.

Maybe the DOGE project will handle that.

I do hope RFK will stay out of other areas, but I think he will just because what he oversees will keep him busy enough.

[No name given]

Agreed.

[DesertRhino]

“FBI director hasn’t stepped down nor been fired, so there is no nomination to be recommended.”

Wray will be fired as soon as Trump takes office. He allowed all the raids, including Mar-a-Lago. He’s gone.

[roving]

Neither has the DOJ. Or the rest of them that Trump picked. So your argument makes no sense.

[DesertRhino]

That is not the Mike Rogers being considered. Not the Admiral.

[vivenne]

I was hearing Kash Patel which would be a great pick and he is in sync with Matt Gaetz.

[Reily]

I know he’s a Kennedy therefore all magical and stuff but let’s review some of his past positions.

You can see not only his long history of extreme far left views below, but also what FReepers have historically thought of him at these links. Acting like someone is being unreasonable by being skeptical of RFK Jr. requires ignoring who he is. If he has truly renounced all of this and has done a 180 degree turn from what he has advocated for over the course of decades in literally the last few months, fine and dandy. But that is difficult to believe someone could turn on a dime and change that dramatically in such a short period of time. Remember he’s praised some of the worst regimes on the planet! I don’t know how any conservative can stand being in the same room with him!

I think this is just a ploy by RFK Jr to get back in the political game by leveraging Trump. If it works, his family is “flexible” enough to forgive and forget.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

“Are there 3 Mike Rogers?

1. Admiral Mike Rogers
2. MI senate candidate Mike Rogers
3. former AL congressman Mike Rogers”

Good post. Reporters need to use those descriptors for clarification.

[vivenne]

And wasn’t there a Mike Roger’s who told Trump in Nov. 2016 that the intelligence community was spying on him???

[vivenne]

Wray will leave before he gets fired.

[RummyChick]

His wife is very liberal and he is nutty. I give it 90 percent chance this goes off the rails.

[hardspunned]

At defense, Trump will easily intimidate Hegseth. Hegseth will do as Trump tells him. There’ll be none of the behind the back Pompeo or Bolton moves. If Hegseth were there the first term rather than Pompeo, the Korean Peninsula would be denuclearized today.

Little Marco will do EXACTLY as Trump says. Otherwise, Trump will fire him out onto the street. No cushy senate seat, no influence to peddle. Little Marco is now a Trump yes man.

I voted for Trump. Let him call the shots, not some Pentagon political weasel masquerading as a general.

[usurper]

OK I’m totally confused.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Sessions was a decent man; he just made a very foolish decision in recusing himself, showing how it was the wrong position for him.

If he was decent he would have disclosed to Trump that he would recuse himself before Trump chose him.

[Olog-hai]

When you consider what RFK was picked for, it might make sense? The HHS bureaucrats are panicking, and that bodes well guven their history.

[Openurmind]

Well said. I absolutely agree.
