According to two people close to the transition, Trump is moving away from two of the front-runners for the job, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney, the 2012 GOP nominee. Giuliani's international business ties and public campaigning for the job are said to have rankled Trump. And while Trump has met twice with Romney, he's said to be aware of the risks of angering his supporters by tapping a Republican who was among his fiercest critics.
Former CIA director David Petraeus is still in the mix, though both people close to the transition said Trump's prolonged decision-making process has left the door open to other options.
One of the sources said Trump was open to expanding his short list of secretary of State prospects. Among the possibilities: Jon Huntsman, a former Republican Utah governor who also served as the ambassador to China and speaks Mandarin.

It’ll be Bolton at the bottom of the funnel.
When you have a regime that would be happier in the afterlife than in this life, this is not a regime that is subject to classic theories of deterrence.
John Bolton
I shortened one of these great quotes to make my tagline.
Here we go again - more idle speculation that will fuel the concern trolls....

I knew you’d like it!
To see Hamilton?
Seriously, then ugh.
Good point, many thanks. He’s got my vote.

‘Robrabacher also shares Trump’s America First philosophy. He has introduced legislation to prioritize Christian refugees and spoken out against the Islamization of Europe, calling the current refugee crisis “the destruction of Western civilization.”’

Exactly, my friend. Exactly. I trust president-elect Trump implicitly to choose the best, out-of-the-box, in synch with Trump's vision, SoS. In a way, a sort of a Trump Mini Me foreign policy pit bull.

Let Trump do the picking. All the so-called “insiders” think they have a direct line to Trump’s brain and then write their articles for one reason, to keep the suspense going. We all have our opinions who should/should not be picked for various cabinet positions. Like I said, “Let Trump do the picking”.

:-) No argument from me about him being establishment to the very core. I remember 2012 when he ran for president. Didn’t trust him then.....and I’ve not changed my mind.
However, I feel like his daughter does a decent job on FNC.
Of course, “Let Trump do the picking.” who else? People can have their own opinions. Bottom line: Trump has an uncanny sense to pick good people. Gotta trust that!
I really need to know what the deal is. If you know, please share.
Reek!!!!
What a twisted character. Completely broken...
He is as dirty and rotten as Romney!!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Is that really possible?
John Bolton on negotiating with other countries.....Here. Do this. Sign here. Bye.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If that’s so he’s exactly the right man for the job.
Watch. Itll be Bolton. Announced on Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas, rats!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Perfect timing and a perfect Christmas present for the Rats.
That is my read of John Boltons body language on Fox yesterday.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you can read body language Trump could probably use you.
Clarke should head US Marshalls.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Great idea. He’s the perfect man for that job.
