President-elect Donald Trump has narrowed the field of candidates for Treasury secretary to Steven Mnuchin and Jonathan Gray, multiple sources tell CNN.

One would have to be an imbecile to believe anything on cnn about Mr Trump, his family, his staff, his transition team of even what he had for breakfast.

True but the liberal media is pushing this hard, probably to stop the potential floodgates of Jewish votes exiting the Ellison Democrat Party.

CNN has no idea what it’s talking about, from Trump, “I am the ONLY ONE who knows who I’ll pick”

I caught “Our Brand Is Crisis” movie on the plane last week. I noticed in the credits that Mnuchin was the executive producer. Interesting parallels to 2016 election......
