President-Elect Trump's cabinet
-
Pompeo will be in something, fer shur.
He might even pitch Kennedy for HHS. I think McCarthy gets something. Musk definitely heads us the cost-cutting and efficiency brigade. I didn't see Tulsi mentioned, but I think she gets something...Secretary of the Air Force, perhaps?
Whatever happens, he's coming out swinging.

@Horace said in WSJ speculates on Trump's cabinet:
Tucker makes fun of Pompeo for being a Trump scrotum licker.
Presumably he can see him doing that from his own dark, dank position.

I've read skepticism about Pompeo - too swampy.
Trump values loyalty. Trump also talked with Rogan about mistakes he made, selecting too many people in his first administration he didn't really know or selecting people that did not understand how the levers of power are used in Washington.

Sincere question: does Trump have someone like Condoleeza Rice who truly understands how the Russian political system functions?
-
First pick - Wiles, Chief of Staff.

Linda McMahon, the co-chair of Trump’s transition team and his former Small Business Administration chief, is considered by some of the former president’s allies to be a leading contender for the job.
I am still astounded that two personalities from WWE will be leading this nation…

I don’t think as Chief of Staff she needs to
know anything about Russia other than where it is on a world map. Managing the President’s work day schedule and the WH staff though she ought to know everything possible to keep things running as smoothly as can be under all conditions and circumstances. -
I didn’t see them speculate on Education… Which leads to further speculation on my part…

I listened to an interview with Vivek. He said that the experience of running for president was amazing - simply because, being a political noob, he had no idea of how Washington works, and where the pitfalls are. He then said that this also applied to Trump in 2016. He predicts it'll be different this time around.
