WASHINGTON (AP) - Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani emerged as the favorite to serve as secretary of state in Donald Trump's incoming administration, a senior Trump official said as the president-elect narrowed down his Cabinet picks.

The official said there was no real competition for the job and that it was Giuliani's if he wanted it. The official was not authorized to speak on the record and requested anonymity.

Giuliani, a top Trump adviser, said Monday night at a Washington event sponsored by the Wall Street Journal that he "won't be attorney general" in Trump's administration - a job for which the former federal prosecutor had been seen as a top contender even before Trump's election.

It makes sense if he is tired of dealing with the justice system. And wants something different in his seasoned years.

Levin was a ReluctaTrumper.

At best.

Maybe Levin can answer phones in Ted Cruz’s office.

Rudy for AG, Bolton for SecState. It’s not that hard.

Agreed, Rudy would clean up Justice, and Bolton would tidy up the globe.

True. AG is my choice for him.

He might be doing “research” at State. He could get access to more Clinton files and other globalist dirt.

Rather have him as AG but yes, never was there a more wretched hive of scum and villainy to drain.

“No swamp is as deep or putrid than the state dept.”

Rudy could get to the bottom of the corruption as SOS faster than as AG - and it needs to be cleaned thoroughly.

I was gonna say GREAT, but I see that’s not the general consensus.

Trump did take him to mexico with him. That might have been an early sign.

Believe me, I’m VERY happy if newt or bolton are picked.

Just rooting for the hometown boy :)

Bunker Mark tried to take Trump down.

Unlikely, he’ll be rewarded with anything other that obscurity.
