Hillary supporter, 'deceptive pro-amnesty lawmaker,' D.C. insiders among president-elect's top choices.
It’s often said “personnel is policy” when it comes to an incoming president’s Cabinet selections, and that’s what has some of Donald Trump’s most fervent supporters asking, “Why THESE people?”
In fact, Americans on both the left and right of the political aisle are expressing concern over the president-elect’s recent choices for key positions in his administration.
On Wednesday came word that Vice-President-elect Mike Pence was meeting with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, an outspoken Trump critic. In October, Rice called for Trump to end his bid. “Donald Trump should not be president. He should withdraw,” she wrote in a Facebook post following release of a decade-old video of Trump having a lewd conversation about women. Rice even insisted Trump replace himself with “someone who has the dignity and stature to run for the highest office in the greatest democracy on earth.” In July, Rice declined to attend the Republican National Convention. The Trump team has not indicated whether it is considering Rice for a Cabinet post.
Also Wednesday, the New York Times reported Trump may be considering professional wrestling magnate Linda McMahon for the Small Business Administration. McMahon developed World Wresting Entertainment, or WWE, with her husband, Vince McMahon. Upon leaving Trump Tower Wednesday, McMahon told reporters, “The meeting went great. It was really nice to be up, and I was honored to be asked to come in. Anytime I think the president-elect of the United States asks you to come in for a conversation, you’re happy to do that. We talked about business and entrepreneurs and creating jobs, and we talked about S.B.A.”

He didn’t pick any of these people. Fake news
Maybe Condi Rice will come around. I hope so.
You want a Bush retread int the Trump admin? Really?
let Trump pick who he wants....he’s different...let him pick different then what we think...
And that is exactly what is going to happen!
Trump has earned my trust. He is picking the best for each position. Let’s see how it plays out.
No..
If I recall Condi did not support Trump...and she’s a bushie
Most of these reporters never watched the apprentice.. I suggest they all watch the show and see how many people compete for one job of winning the apprentice. Trump at least is interviewing many candidates for one job.
Some people hear alarm bells others hear bell ringing out freedom.
I figure Mr. Trump knows exactly what he is doing. I am not going to second guess any of his picks.
I wish everyone would lay off until January 2018. See how things are going then.
There does seem to be a pattern developing. Trump is having a face to face, now, with the ‘important’ people who decided they needed to be public in bashing him. To be a fly on the wall in these ‘meet and greet’ sessions.
Bingo!
I am witchoo Duchess.
He is also talking to people he is not even remotely interested in. It’s called intellectual curiosity
It is? All I read is some ankle-biter at WND getting all wee-weed up. Give him a pacifier and put him to bed.
I agree.
Romney. Rice. Trump is bring his meetings with these people front and center.
There is a new GOP being forged right now. Will the old GOP be spun off, or will it be a part of the change?
That is the question.
WND has a history of this fake news and sensational headlines.
About the only thing there worth reading is Pat Buchanan.
Exactly. That is why people have to realize even everyone here have to understand that you need to have a whole lot of applicant to apply for a job before the best is pick to perform the job. In the apprentice Trump gave all these candidates many projects and if they don’t perform they are fired. We need to just sit back and watch the process unfold.
