I’m guessing Flynn. We know he’s been vetted by the Obama administration … you can’t do better than that!

I think it’s far too early to rule out Ivanka.

If Trump’s “picks” so far are any indicator of this and future selections of people, we are all in very deep doo-doo.

Kushner still has some free time on his schedule, I hear. Plus, already passed the only vetting that counts, sworn loyalty oath to Trump Inc.

The Pussy Grabber-in-Chief giving a commencement address at Liberty University. That’s very, very rich!

When real qualifications and experience are not necessary, the pool of possible candidates expands exponentially - thus making Vegas betting odds much more difficult to set, and curiosity about the eventual selection considerably heightened. Trump does enjoy the build-up of suspense, shock, horror and potential doom.

Who knows? The Liberty U. women may like it. After all, the L.U. Grads seem to view Trump as "God’s ‘imperfect vessel’ who is just furthering God’s plan, no matter what he does.

Omarosa? Dolores Umbrage? Qualifications not necessary, only a loyalty pledge and NDA.

Supposedly 8 folks are interviewing (n Cornyn reportedly had to be dragged into his interview with Trump n Sessions) for this job.

Anyone else is hearsay.

I just kind of assumed they would add Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation to Jared “Full Metal Jackass” Kushner’s portfolio. I’ve heard he was looking for something to do.

Which one: Ed “Star Search” McMahon or Vince “I have balls the size of grapefruits and come this Sunday, you’ll be spitting out the seeds” McMahon?

He’s awfully busy right now clearing his Day-timer® of aborted speaking engagements.

He took the interview, but it was supposedly as a courtesy, then say a hard interest.

Politico is reporting that if Trump offers him the job, Cornyn would take the job,

Vince

The story is that even though the writers had finished the product (PPV, sometimes television), Vince would proceed to edit it (which of course is his right).

I bought it up, because depending on the source, Trump n Sessions have interviewed either nine or twelve folks for this job.

That’s Trump’s right to do so, but there are at least five folks who don’t have any ‘warts’ on em.

However, Trump seems to want the ones that are the epitome of red flags (Hudson, Fisher, Cornyn)…

oh well

Texas is special election, not Gov pick. Hmm.

“If vacancy occurs in an even year on or before the 62nd day before the primary, remainder of term is filled at next regular general election. If vacancy occurs after 62nd day before the primary in an even year, or in an odd year, special election is held on the first uniform election date occurring on or after the 36th day the election is ordered”
