They have not said.

All I know is if I was in charge I would clean house.
all the Rats and moles gone.
Some good people would get cleared out too but they can come back.

It is essential to clear out the rats and moles on day one

Donald has a tight team

Ctez does too and Cruz is taking notes

In all things Legal I give him props...

I prayed a long time this morning about all of the discord this is causing and it boils down to not just being a finder, a troubleshooter, a righter of past wrongs...

It is what leadership is about, forward and to where... This country is not unified at the moment by much except locality and the Core American Spirit.
Holding our breath as we never have before, or since say 1812 and Ft. McHenry where the Brits wanted the US back, and damned near got it...

But a misfit dedicated General (not the best human being but) led a rag tag bunch of Americans in waiting and swept them from the field Leadership requires experience in Creating, Building, caring for others by giving them opportunity to follow their star, not the one you love... Ted for Attorney General or possibly VP Semper Fidelis!

Okay...then don’t be so hard on Trump for not saying who he thinks should be Speaker. You just made my point :)

Like Trump just said, at a presser at his GA rally, it’s not his place to say...it’s up to the folks who will be voting on this....but, he would like to see someone strong, as Speaker.

He also said, earlier today...because “Republicans never win”....and, he’s right.

I think it will be the one who does not get distracted early.
The one who hones their points and hammers them in the last hour.

Keep yer power dry

Lets face it this Speaker thing is a goat rope.

Cruz forced it and political animals are still fighting it.

Cruz is in the trenches, WTF is Trump?

Mark Meadows is the one who forced it, plus the Rep who said, anybody with embarrassing skeletons in the closet, get out now.

I am not being hard on the Donald.
I only ask him to back his words and not use weasel words.
He is a very capable charlatan as is Obama

Trump is for Trump

That is all I have to say

Agree, and that was the beauty of the Revolution and 1812

We went from Colony to big dog in under 50 years

And it was the Average Joe who stood up and said Hell No

Another average Joe that I feel deserves mention in this line is General Custer, yes ole Yellow Hair (part Indian, it happens) He led a Cavalry Brigade I believe of very raw recruits from Michigan. Their job that day was behind the lines probing for the enemy and protecting the rear...

And that is precisely where Jeb Stuarts Cavalry boys showed up, timed to be the pincers to Picketts charge

On the third day of the Battle of Gettysburg (July 3, 1863) during the disastrous infantry assault nicknamed Pickett’s Charge, there were two cavalry battles: one approximately three miles (5 km) to the east, in the area known today as East Cavalry Field, the other southwest of the [Big] Round Top mountain (sometimes called South Cavalry Field).
The East Cavalry Field fighting was an attempt by Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart’s Confederate cavalry to get into the Federal rear and exploit any success that Pickett’s Charge may have generated. Union cavalry under Brig. Gens. David McM. Gregg and George Armstrong Custer repulsed the Confederate advances.

They stopped em cold, and Jebs boys were the best Lee had...

Definitely Bad ass
