I'll bet you Jay Clayton is the next Attorney General
Jay Clayton was chairman of the SEC during the first Trump presidential term,
he's a safer choice than other options, and he would also probably be a good
Attorney General. What do you think?

Reply #13912585 P.S. This is complicated by the
fact that Clayton sued Elon Musk while at the SEC, which is the one thing that
might sink this, in my opinion.

Reply #17330051 I’m not liking some of his
cabinet choices so far. Namely, Rubio as secretary of state and Kristi Noem (dog
killer) as head of DHS. Rubio hilariously wasn’t even on Trump’s side on
January 6th. He would have been better off selecting somebody like Ted Cruz who
actually voted in his favor.
This is a list of the senators on Trump’s side. Obviously, Noem is a governor
of a small state and she seems dumb and somebody who faked a meeting with Kim
Jong Un should not be head of DHS.

Reply #19368226 Tulsi Gabbard as secretary of
state would have been a good choice too. Better than Rubio.

Reply #19435733 You have to understand, Trump
does not get to pick whoever he wants. Some people will say no to him. As they
do not want to be associated with his administration for future political career
prospects. He has to take whoever accepts the job.

Reply #17223164 So in a previous life I was
actually at dinner with someone who got the phone call to be part of trumps
first administration but they declined because Trump administration is such a
heavy burden to carry going forward if you want to do politics later. That's why
I think he doesn't get many run of the mill people who you'd think would be
perfect for the job. It's a high risk low reward posting so that's why you get
many random people like peter Navarro who was a professor at a ttt school and
wrote books like the coming war with chayna!! As his only credentials.
Democrats seen to recruit from run of the mill civil service and big donor
types.
