Hillary supporter, 'deceptive pro-amnesty lawmaker,' D.C. insiders among president-elect's top choices.
It’s often said “personnel is policy” when it comes to an incoming president’s Cabinet selections, and that’s what has some of Donald Trump’s most fervent supporters asking, “Why THESE people?”
In fact, Americans on both the left and right of the political aisle are expressing concern over the president-elect’s recent choices for key positions in his administration.
On Wednesday came word that Vice-President-elect Mike Pence was meeting with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, an outspoken Trump critic. In October, Rice called for Trump to end his bid. “Donald Trump should not be president. He should withdraw,” she wrote in a Facebook post following release of a decade-old video of Trump having a lewd conversation about women. Rice even insisted Trump replace himself with “someone who has the dignity and stature to run for the highest office in the greatest democracy on earth.” In July, Rice declined to attend the Republican National Convention. The Trump team has not indicated whether it is considering Rice for a Cabinet post.
Also Wednesday, the New York Times reported Trump may be considering professional wrestling magnate Linda McMahon for the Small Business Administration. McMahon developed World Wresting Entertainment, or WWE, with her husband, Vince McMahon. Upon leaving Trump Tower Wednesday, McMahon told reporters, “The meeting went great. It was really nice to be up, and I was honored to be asked to come in. Anytime I think the president-elect of the United States asks you to come in for a conversation, you’re happy to do that. We talked about business and entrepreneurs and creating jobs, and we talked about S.B.A.”

Rice is a Bushie-mostly democrat like Colon Powell...
Give me Sheriff Clark...Give me Colonel West...Give me Palin...but no Bushies.
Yahoo!!
It's been amusing to watch Mitt suck up and grovel to Trump but if he's expecting the same from Rice then I think he'll be disappointed.
That’s the best post I’ve read in months. Sanity!
Ambassador to Somalia?
:)
Maybe people should stop letting the same Junk Media that did everything they could do to defeat Trump tell them what to think now.
Levin goes off the rails because it is Tuesday.
Truth!
Trump has a track record of making sure his picks are accomplishing their goals. If not..."You're FIRED!" (He went thru 3 campaign mgrs until he got it right). He is a billionaire because he understands management processes. That expertise is what we hired him. Now we shut the hell up and let him do his job...HIS WAY! Forget how you feel about a choice, you hired TRUMP to make those decisions. It is up to him...get out of his way. He will accomplish the goals with the tools he chooses.
If political entertainment is your goal, then sit back, and watch the Democrats go absolutely ballistic with each choice. There's entertainment for you!
IF Condi Rice is upset over what she considers Trump & a lewd conversation-—How would she describe Bill Clinton’s behavior? Did she want HIM back in the White House???
I agree with the Israel part.
I’m just not clear what his international standing is.
Does he have one?
“:^)
Tied up pretty much all day today. Thank you for the nice response. It’s always nice to hear folks read and appreciated what you had to say.
Thank you, an outstanding post.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Beats me.
Trump must have his reasons for picking Mitt, but all I see when I look at Mitt is just another uniparty, never Trump, globalist type.
We’ll see how it shakes out.

Well, your outlook gets sympathy from me.
Well, your outlook gets sympathy from me.
Inferring I lean that way myself.
the media wants professional political class only politicians.
The founders intended citizen legislators and elected.
They are SUPPOSED to have ongoing businesses.
The establishment only wants stockowner media which can be more easily manipulation.
I agree, they do want professional politicians.
The Founders wanted part timers, to only have sessions that were short each year. They wanted them to serve for only a term or two and be connected their home businesses.
They also wanted them to live off their home businesses.
The media is stark raving mad. With all the information available to them, they constantly get most everything wrong.
I agree with your thoughts.
