Maybe Condi Rice will come around. I hope so.

Trump has earned my trust. He is picking the best for each position. Let’s see how it plays out.

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.

Is sounds like they wrote an article about stuff that has not happened based on rumor.

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.

When Obama ran in 2008, he said the president should be willing to talk to any foreign leader without preconditions.

Now we're supposed to get upset because the president elect is having a conversation with an American citizen?

If true, I’m not fully surprised or fully concerned. Donald knows he cannot or at least should not shut out all of the Old Guard GOP. If one looks closely and listens, there may be a few who can work with us. I don’t believe once a #NeverTrumper, always a #NeverTrumper. Didn’t we criticize Hillary for calling us ‘irredeemable’? A big tent is better and more durable than a tiny bubble.

Folks, when it comes to Trump we’ve never seen someone like this in the White House. This will call for a whole new set of guidelines when it comes to criticism.

No, I do not mean that he gets a pass when policy starts to go South. What I mean is, we have to let that policy go South before we complain. Why?

The Last Republican president we had, was not a man to push strong Conservatism. His management style, if you could call it that, was nothing like Trump’s. He wouldn’t defend himself or our ideals. Trump will do both, with vigor.

Did Bush have a super agenda he was going to push, or was he sort of a marginal good guy what was going to go along to get along, in a way..., but not fully. I admit that.

You see, because of the Bush/Gore fight for the office in Florida, Bush felt compelled to give in a bit, offer concessions, and be sensitive to the Democrat’s feelings.

Hey, I know. It was a mistake. Live and learn. The fact is, Bush wasn’t a full on alpha male. We’ve talked about this time and again. He just wasn’t.

So Bush was nothing like Trump.

Trump is a CEO’s CEO. The man has drive Bush never had. He’s willing to say what he wants. He’s willing to work to achieve it. He’s willing to fight for it.

Trump is not a politician. He has been a CEO for close to 40 years. He operates like one. It is who he is. It’s his nature.

He sets a goal and strives to achieve it. He doesn’t look at Rs and Ds like we do. He looks for administrators. He looks for people who can take on his agenda and drive it forward.

So the danger of a swishy moderate in a Bush administration, isn’t the same as a swishy moderate in Trump’s.

Bush seemed to be led around by the nose at times, by his swishy moderates. Trump will not be.

Trump has his agenda. He will set the goal. He will be checking to see how it’s coming along, and if it isn’t the swishy moderate will be drop kicked to Baltimore. A new administrator will be hired, one that will know what is expected or else.

This isn’t your, your father, or your grandfather’s type of President.

This guy isn’t going to play by the old playbook. It’s result he wants, and he doesn’t care if it’s a Mitt Romney, as long as his goal is achieved.

How do you fault a guy like this, before he starts to falter? You can’t.

We have to give him the freedom to do things his way, and then judge by his deeds, achievements.

I know this is taxing, because I myself am having to check myself using my old standards of judging if danger is just ahead.

I wouldn’t let Romney anywhere near an administration of mine. Trump however may, and if he does, Romney will do exactly as asked. I believe this.

Trump comes in on time and under budget. It’s his hallmark. Anyone who can’t live by this motto of Trump’s, is in for a big surprise.

So we wait. We watch. We learn along with the best of them.

Trump is a different kind of animal.

He doesn’t need to be tamed. He’s going to break the wild horse that is Washington, and we’ll get to stand around the corral and watch him do it.

We won’t tell him why to do it, when to do it, or how to do it. He knows.

This is going to be worth many times the price of admission folks.

Be patient. I know it’s hard. It is for me too.

We Republicans are used to weak, lefty leaders, like boosch. Trump isn’t that. If he can make the GOPe work for US, what’s wrong with that?

The Trump team has not indicated whether it is considering Rice for a Cabinet post.

It's been amusing to watch Mitt suck up and grovel to Trump but if he's expecting the same from Rice then I think he'll be disappointed.

The New York Times reported

Maybe people should stop letting the same Junk Media that did everything they could do to defeat Trump tell them what to think now.

People treat this cabinet selection process like some kind of popularity contest (I like him, I really hate her). THAT IS NOT THE PROCESS. Trump is Chairman of the Board and he is setting up a successful machine geared to accomplish his goals. There is a hell of a difference in the selection process if the goal is accomplishment rather than political stability. We hired him to do a job. We want safety, we want jobs, etc. does it matter if the cabinet pick is black, white, ir green? He is picking people that will get it done.

Trump has a track record of making sure his picks are accomplishing their goals. If not..."You're FIRED!" (He went thru 3 campaign mgrs until he got it right). He is a billionaire because he understands management processes. That expertise is what we hired him. Now we shut the hell up and let him do his job...HIS WAY! Forget how you feel about a choice, you hired TRUMP to make those decisions. It is up to him...get out of his way. He will accomplish the goals with the tools he chooses.

If political entertainment is your goal, then sit back, and watch the Democrats go absolutely ballistic with each choice. There's entertainment for you!
