I want one of those tough negotiators that Trump talked about during the campaign. Those are the rough/tough/ugly/shady guys who know how make a deal and are the ones Trump said have names we wouldn't recognize...like Magilla Gorilla.

Okay, I just made up that last part.

But, looks like we are getting the Exxon guy with Bolton as the Deputy. One for the road and one to crack the whip at the State Department.
When you truly evaluate the whole of things, yes, Trump could have picked a guy off the street and dressed him up in an ape suit and it would have been a better pick than Romney or Betrayus.

Ron Paul

Why? Isn't it obvious?

If I were DT and I had to choose among the three it would be Giuliani if for no other reason than personal loyalty. I have a hard time believing he is not searching outside this "list". Petraeus would be a huge liability, Romney is clearly and enemy.

Why did this disgusting country pick Trump over Ron Paul?

I think my question answers itself.

Ron Paul was not running this time around. He could not overcome and bully his way past the lamestream nonsense news media, to get past Romney.

But as sec of state, he would let them know we care, but it sounds like a personal problem. Good luck and call if you need someone to vent to.

If the pick has the limp wristed, snowflake fruitloops panties in a bind, it was the right choice, no matter what his non-political background is.
