Trump 2.0: Pompeo, Friedman among floated appointees
Israel Hayom ^ | 11/6/2024 | Ariel Kahana

The former president sees loyalty as a key criterion as he considers a mix of familiar faces and new allies for top positions.

-snip-

the State Department leadership is likely to be determined from among three contenders: former National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien, Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.

-snip-

Former US Ambassador Richard Grenell, who served as Trump's envoy to Germany, has emerged as a leading candidate for national security advisor.

The defense secretary position has drawn three prominent candidates: former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Representative Mike Waltz of Florida, and Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.

-snip-

For White House chief of staff, the highest-ranking position within the president's inner circle, veteran political strategist Susie Wiles has emerged as the leading candidate. Wiles, widely credited as the mastermind behind Trump's recent election victory, may be joined in the senior leadership team by former Trump White House official Brooke Rollins, who is also under consideration for the role.

Also, I kept this from back in July after Butler:

“A verrrrrry interesting timeline about Nikki Haley inviting herself to speak at the GOP convention:

“Haley posted she was invited to the RNC at 5:42 on J13. Trump said she invited herself. He was shot at 6:11.
“@barnes_law reported Pompeo told Iowa delegates he would be VP. Was never on DJT’s list. With Trump gone you would have seen a Haley/Pompeo ticket. They knew.— Valley Frog 1776 (@ValleyFrog1776) July 20, 2024

Pompeo spoke at Trump’s Pittsburgh rally on Monday. He’s vetted, pre-confirmed and ready to serve.

It’s the Attorney General pick that I’m most concerned about. We don’t want a repeat of the Jeff Sessions / Robert Mueller / Russian Collusion hoax disaster.

I don’t understand why there’s so much hysteria from the fringe peanut gallery over Peace Through Strength conservatives.

And what if Trump supports them during his presidency? Are you going to turn against him?

Whatever. He did nothing to reign in the commies over at foggy bottom. I’m not saying he isn’t capable. He was/is. I’m saying he’s deep state and cannot be trusted. Lots of capable government azzholes.

Pompeo seems to have lost a lot of weight, looks slim. At his age it may be a result of some health problem....

Pompeo is a sniveling Neocon and is on Trumps, “Do Not Appoint” list. Try again.

Then why did President Trump invite Pompeo to speak at his Pittsburgh rally on Monday?

Pompeo paid Trump for the speaking gig.

We are a nation of laws - many of which are bad.

Trump’s people will merely administer the laws, good, or bad.

It will be up to a Republican Congress to fix the laws and get good budgets prepared on a timely basis.

And let us not forget why there is over 100 comments - Trump hired a large number of backstabbers.

Trump should try to involve people like J.D. Vance and Ron DeSantis in key personnel decisions.

Recall traitor Bill Barr crawling out from under his rock earlier this year to check the direction the winds are blowing. Globalists and WEF devils want someone they know is spineless and easily controlled by a phone call from Obama or Klaus.

During President Trumps first meeting with Biden at the White House he should ask for an immediate pardon and release of ALL January 6th protestors. In return he could offer to give a nod to a possible Hunter Biden pardon. Everyone wins. Hunter was clearly railroaded by the drugs found at the White House and allowed to take the blame for the wicked VP.

I, in consideration for your consideration, agree to donate all media royalties and other position-derived income I might earn in the 4 years after leaving government employment to charity.

No backstabbing for bucks should be possible.

The J6ers need to be treated fairly, and so does Hunter.

The customary and usual penalties should be meted out for offenses.

Vance is heavily involved in the process according to the NY Post.

NO to Pompeo. Unless they need someone to change the TP and wash the bathrooms.

I’m not sure the words fair and J6ers have ever been used in the same sentence before.
