I support John Bolton for whatever Trump wants him for, and the same goes for Newton Leroy Gingrich.

"Probably Chief of Staff....Gives Trump & Newt some privacy and Newt will keep everyone on schedule"

Not only that Sacajaweau. Trump reiterated last night on the Hannity interview he wants to get things through the House and Senate, not run things by Executive Order, like someone who remain nameless. Now rather than go the Dick Cheney route with Newt i.e. an older gent with wisdom as VP and having that office as a career topper and not going further, he would be better as Chief of Staff.

* With Newt as Chief of Staff, he can work through the House with him, frankly Newt knows the process, players, and where all the bodies are buried.

But that leaves us with getting things through the Senate. So who will do that? My gut is telling me as the Donald's VP choice might be Rand Paul


* With Paul as Presiding over the Senate he has got a contact with the Senate to maneuver through that mind field.
* More So...
* IMHO Mitch McConnell owes Rand.....
* Say what you will about Matt Bevin as a Senate Candidate, he is Gov. now, and is not to be taken lightly IMHO. Without Rand standing by him, it might have been Senator Bevin.

Some more thoughts....

* Rand bowed out early with grace.
* Rand gave an unequivocal endorsement of the Parties presumptive nominee the other day, aka Donald Trump.
* And Rand the only one to talk about cutting government and the debt, something that Trump around the edges has noted.
* With Kim Jong Shrill unable to sell it in a closed primary in KY and Bernie almost beat her. Where do the Bernie voters go? They can't stand Shrill, Rand has got that whole Millennial Hipster vibe thing going on and I see him attracting the young Bernie voters. As one poster here noted the other day near a college community, he has seen Bernie and Paul bumper stickers on the same car. Epistemologically not congruent? Yes, but they are still young they will figure it out soon I hope.

IMHO Newt as COS and Rand as VP makes a heck of a lot of sense...

In my opinion, chief of staff would be beneath Newt. He is a former speaker, 2nd in line for the presidency.

If he’s not veep then the only 2 places would be DOD or Secstate.

I could also see hint as head of closing department of education, and then others like it.

Wholeheartedly agree. Chief of Staff.

For Press Secretary, even though she is a bit over the top, Ann Coulter.

Could you imagine? LOL.

I would prefer Bolton as Secretary of State. De-fund the UN, and send no ambassador.

Yes I can, but either Laura Ingraham or Chris Christie would have me buying stock in popcorn companies because the consumption rate would go up through the moon. They both don't suffer fools gladly and would Beeotch Slap anyone that was out of line.

My money is on Christie...

I could get behind your two. but I think both will hold more substantial posts. Press Secretary has to day in and out deal with the horde of presstitutes. I just see Ann as mean enough to make two or three of them cry every week. She got behind Trump early, and he rewards those loyal to him. I also do not see any other post she would fit. I see many potential posts for both Laura and Chris.

I would like to see Christie as U.S. Attorney General.
