MILWAUKEE - President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday announced his nomination of Fiserv CEO Frank Bisignano for Social Security Administration commissioner.

"I am very pleased to nominate Frank Bisignano to serve as the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration," Trump said in a post on Truth Social. "Frank is a business leader, with a tremendous track record of transforming large corporations. He will be responsible to deliver on the Agency’s commitment to the American People for generations to come!"

Of course, Democrats and the media will not like this. Is there a nominee yet that they have approved without criticism?

Marketwatch’s take:

“Trump’s Social Security pick is a CEO with no government experience. Can he guide a troubled program 67 million Americans rely on?”

Fiserv is no small fish. It has a network of 2 million ATMs, and has hooks in all aspects of the financial chains, and arcane financial regs. After a certain point, scaling is not a huge factor. It is not much harder to oversee 50,000 VMs (Virtual Machines) than 5,000. Just more of the same.

He was thought of very highly at Citi.

THOSE WITH “GOVERNMENT” experience only keep kicking the cans down the road.

[CFW]

When someone criticizes a nominee for having “no government experience” they are actually worried the person may want to get positive results from an institution. That is just not allowed in government agencies.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results

Maybe a business man, instead of a political hack, is exactly who we need to put in charge of this “troubled program”.

Maybe if had done this much sooner, the program would not be “troubled” hmmm?

The first job is to get 42,000 deadbeats back into the office...

There is no office for highway litter removal personnel, which is where most of those ‘workers’ should be transferred to just before the highway jobs are eliminated.

Fiserv s also an employment hell-hole.

My son works for a bank that uses their services. Since he has been CEO there are all kinds of problems with the service. He probably should have stayed with CITI.

I can testify to that.
