My choice is Gen. Kelly...
My number one choice.
Amen.
Bolton!
Stick it to ‘em.
My number one choice is to let Trump decide.
In the end the SoS will be executing Trump’s policies.
I trust he will do what serves all of us best.
Ted Nugent for SoS! The Motor City Madman would rock the world.
“Cat Scratch Fever,” anyone?

“A major problem for Petraeus is his mishandling of classified documents, which he reportedly leaked to his biographer-mistress, Paula Broadwell.” This bears clarification. Petraeus pled guilty to mishandling of classified information, so it’s not “reportedly” or even alleged.
Telling the truth since 1994.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bolton. Or maybe Giuliani. We need a sec of Snake who will Drain the Swamp at the Snake Department. Get all Nazis, islamonazis, iskamophiles, “Arabians,” and other enemy agents or useful idiots OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT. ASAP!
"However, Iran may well retaliate," Bolton acknowledges. "At that point, Washington must be ready to immediately resupply Israel for losses incurred by its armed forces in the initial attack, so that Israel will still be able to effectively counter Tehran's proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, which will be its vehicles for retaliation. The United States must also provide muscular political support, explaining that Israel legitimately exercised its inherent right of self-defense. Whatever Obama's view, public and congressional support for Israel will be overwhelming."
Who is to blame for this situation? Bolton writes: "American weakness has brought us to this difficult moment. While we obsessed about its economic discomfort, Iran wore its duress with pride. It was never an even match. We now have to rely on a tiny ally to do the job for us. But unless we are ready to accept a nuclear Iran (and, in relatively short order, several other nuclear Middle Eastern states), get ready. The easy ways out disappeared long ago."
This is sober reality and precisely the worldview that is needed at the Department of State.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ The kind of sober adult talk that this country has been sorely missing. A "peace through strength" kinda guy. Gets my vote.
If not Bolton, then Condoleeza Rice. Never Romney and find another job for Rudy
I think Bolton would be up to speed much faster than any of the other candidates and likely more attuned to whatever the new POTUS lays out to be accomplished strategically. GO FOR BOLTON!!!
Bolton is the man I have been hoping would get the job from the start. Time to kick arse and take names.
Absolutely yes! He is the only person I could see in that job in the Trump administration. Why is Trump looking at idiots like Romney or people like Guiliani, who could better be used in homeland security, etc.?
Rudy would be OK too, but I feel good about this.
No way! Enough pointless foreign wars
I want Rudy - because he was so helpful to the campaign and I think Trump should consider this. I didn’t see Bolton too much doing anything to help win the Presidency like Rudy did.
And I think Rudy would make a GREAT SOS!
Wow.
I never had high hopes for Trump.
For me, he was just the “Not Hillary!” candidate.
But day after it day, it seems like Christmas...
Bolton for SecState? What joy that would be! Can you imagine the screaming at the UN and other dens of depravity?
