17 intelligence agencies.
I don’t like this pick. I live in Indiana.
I would prefer a more outside the box guy, but it depends on what his charge is. If Trump tells him to completely revamp these agencies, as is rumored, fine.
Well past time to upgrade from a Crapper.
I don’t know anything about Coats.
Why don’t you like him to get this position?
Yes, why don’t you like him?
I do too but I’m a bit nervous......how many more positions are yet to be filled that might include Sebastian Gorka and Sheriff David Clarke?????
You beat me to it. I was about to say its time to get off the Crapper.
Perhaps Coats will prove to be TRUMP’s foil. TRUMP is eager start fresh and deal Putin a respectful, friendly and diplomatic opening, openly desirous of an effort to attempt to cut deals, rather than boss Putin around on his first stroke, and to openly seek cooperation with Russia in annihilating ISIS in the ME.
However, when Coats brings an inevitable piece of trouble by the hammer and sickle, Trump can then defer to him and the
Dept of Intelligence if he needs to, on our proper response or reaction, but Trump himself can continue with the hard won diplomatic avenues he hopes to keep established, or not, as he sees fit.

Trump has been known to fire non-performers.
I agree. I also live in Indiana and I don't know that I trust this pick either.
Pence knows and trusts Coats and that’s all that matters.
BIG RINO
Thanks!

I thought the same thing. Hopefully he will whittle it down to 2 or 3.
How old is he? 65? We need someone who has a reputation to maintain rather than someone who has enough money to rest on his laurels.
Coats is 73
