TRUMP FAMILY TRANSITION THREAD - Countdown week 8 (November 25-December 1, 2016)
Friends | November 25, 2016 | DollyCali

Posted on 11/25/2016 4:07:00 AM PST by DollyCali

WELCOME TO THE TRUMP FAMILY TRAIN

TRANSITION. We are in the third week since the election until the Inauguration

SEVERAL picks so far. LOTS of speculation and misinformation along the way

This week the country loudly let the PEOTUS know mittens was not on most favored list. Trump let the media know they were NOT on his most favored list. A snark designer who helped keep MO tacky advised other designers to stay away from Melania professionally. We ate too much probably on Thanksgiving and we possibly weren't appreciative enough of the blessings in this life.

Our holidays will have a special meaning under the Trumps, I am sure......

That’s awesome! So happy she got a spot in the admin (I was hoping she would) - she’s very intelligent and very articulate! Maybe Dr. Gorka will be a Deputy or Ass’t Secretary, he’s very good, too.

I agree about Gorka as SoS - that would be a shocker to a lot of people and probably cause some splody heads. If not SoS then a Deputy Secretary - he’s so knowledgeable and well-spoken he needs to be in this admin. I don’t recall him coming out and being really specific about it, but I always thought he supported Trump and know he wasn’t fond of Hillary (IIRC he was a Trump advisor).

Should be a great team, Flynn/McFarland.

I agree - great team!

Interesting to see who will be announced today - maybe Dr. Carson at HUD or Rudy as SoS or HS? Sheriff Clarke?

How about putting Sheriff Joe in this position (he could probably get a good discount on buying pink boxers in bulk):

Director, Bureau of Prisons, Department of Justice

Don’t know if it’s still here, but I saw a thread on FR the past day or two, that Romney is preparing a public apology to Trump to get the SoS gig.

His wife Katie was a Cruz advisor.....but Dr Gorka did not have a role in the Trump campaign AFAIK.

Editor’s note: Bloomberg News reports that KT McFarland, former U.S. official and current Fox News commentator, has accepted Donald Trump’s offer of deputy national security adviser, according to two sources. Bloomberg also notes that Trump named former Defense Intelligence Agency Director Michael Flynn his national security adviser last week. We’re watching for confirmation. - Rebecca

K.T. McFarland's deputy national security adviser position doesn’t require confirmation by the U.S. Senate.

I believe Trump is allowing his supporters to decide about Romney's position in his administration

Thanks Liz. Didn’t know that about his wife and could be remembering incorrectly about him being a campaign adviser.
I think I was thinking about Walid Phares.

SOOOOOOOO FUNNY!!!

There are many reasons Romney should not be SoS.
