Sure beats Obama’s choice...”openly gay civilian” Eric Fanning

“He moved to Florida, and said then that he planned to retire there.”
Lots of people do that to escape high tax locales like NYC. No state income tax is a big deal when you have made money at this level.
Yep - Trump hitting on all 12 cylinders.
ANOTHER BAZILLIONAIRE!!!
Let's ignore the fact that the man is...
ACTUALLY SUCCESSFUL.
I was wondering about this one at first. Infantry officer who goes on to great success in business? Perfect Army Sec.
If there is a Florida Panthers vs. Vegas Golden Knights game, the pregame ceremonies should be entertaining.
From an article in the Las Vegas Sun:
A National Hockey League expansion team that plans to call itself the Golden Knights has caught the attention of Army officials because of the parachute team that goes by the same name.
The Vegas Golden Knights, who begin play next year, announced their moniker last Tuesday.
The U.S. Army Parachute Team, which is based at Fort Bragg, has used the Golden Knights name since the 1960s, said Alison Bettencourt, a spokeswoman for the Army Marketing and Research Group in Arlington, Virginia. The group serves as the Army-level headquarters of the Golden Knights.

Oh my, Ranger too? Nuf said.
Solid pick is right - take a gander at this guy’s resume!
The epitome of the red-blooded American.
Or “Hockey, so typical of Trump.” :-)
Outstanding pick. Again. The man is brilliant (major player in finance who was chairman of NYMEX on 9/11), Army through and through, and has more money than anyone can spend in a lifetime. So he can be 100% committed with no personal agenda but his country’s.
Not only on all twelve cylinders, the twin-turbos are kicking in as well. No lag whatsoever - just pure torque.

MAGA
A beautiful thing....
