The last big nomination is Treasury. Who do you think it will be?

Normally, it's someone with Fed experience or from Goldman Sachs.

I'm going to say...Rudy Giuliani. Once confirmed all of his debts will magically disappear.

On a serious note, Trump, do not fuck with the money. Do whatever else you want to do, but do not fuck with the banks.

Lou Dobbs dead would probably do a better job than Lou Dobbs alive, though.

Where's his grave so I can pee on it?

Who the fuck knows anymore.

Needing any experience for these jobs is now completely moot. It’s all a big loyalty test and she’s one of his biggest supporters. She hasn’t been rewarded yet so I’m going to pick her
