Incoming PDS in 3....2....1...

President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team is seriously discussing the possibility of giving former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin a cabinet position, Politico reported Wednesday.

The Trump campaign is floating the idea of tapping the former Alaskan governor as Trump’s interior secretary. Palin has made no secret about her interest in holding a position in a Trump administration.

Trump’s Transition Team Considers Sarah Palin For Possible Cabinet Spot

What's one more grifter...

Washington Redskin, FIREWATER BAD!!!!!

Palin is why McCain lost. Trump is scraping the bottom of the scrap heap. She's a corporate shill. I thought he was against corporate power Washington. There are plenty of good conservatives for that job. She couldn't run a Sunday school picnic. Not that she attends church or anything. She is establishment times fifty.

No she is not why McCain lost. McCain lost because he, at Palin's protesting, suspended his campaign and went to Washington to deal with the bailout. Obama and his media darlings used that as an excuse to label McCain a Washington insider and everything else that's wrong with Washington. It worked and McCains poll numbers plummeted.

Great idea. She probably knows more about the great outdoors than 99% of the duds who've gone before.

Still even at that, I sincerely doubt she was the expert in her own administration. Do you think her leading adviser on energy policy was a former mayor or perhaps an expert on natural resources? I would hope the latter.

So who would you recommend? A former business executive?

Me? I wouldn't know where to begin. I would think a Pres Elect would have more resources than I. I doubt a business leader would be at the top of my list, although I wouldn't categorically rule them out. I'm sure there are experts on the subject of natural resources in this population of 330 million. Keep in mind the dept of Interior has far more responsibilities than extraction industries.

However you know for a certainty that Palin is not qualified.

Well considering that her credentials appear to be entirely comprised of being a politician, I would venture that she is not qualified.

So a governor whose state was mostly federally owned and worked extensively with the Dept. Of Interior, wouldn't have enough experience, yet you don't know where to begin. Sounds like some great logic. Lol!

Here's a link to wiki's listing of "operating units" at Interior. Go through them and tell me which of them you think Palin would be considered a leading authority.

Now watch the "progressives" who were demanding a woman get her fair turn start backpedaling.

Heartbreaking news, liberals:

Mrs. Palin has children.

She has a vagina!

Palin had to know a lot about the federal land and what conservation projects were being used in the millions of acres of federal land. She also had many dealings with the Alaskan Indians, seems to fit her.

What about Sally Jewell, what made her qualified for the office? She worked in oil fields in Texas and Oklahoma and then went into banking, how does that apply to the job?

You stated that she is not qualified and yet you can't "begin" to understand what is entailed on the job. All you have is hate and that is the only reason you believe she is not qualified, you have admitted it.

You've got me all wrong. I'm not remotely liberal and I like Sara Palin. I'm just tired of people being installed in these positions for political reasons. Much of what Interior deals with is of a technical nature, Palin is a politician not a scientist nor an energy expert nor an expert on land use nor anything else that Interior deals with. I was hoping that Trump as a business man would look for people with expertise in the fields they will be overseeing.

Sara Palin probably has more on the ground experience in the wild lands of Alaska than 99.9% of the bureaucrats in managerial positions in Interior. She also is fully away of fossil fuel production, something most Washington insiders lack.

 

[hazlnut]

That will never happen.

Behind the scenes Trump and family can't stand her.

They throw out a lot of names just to pretend to consider them--appease the religious base.

To religious right, Trump is not going to appoint judges that will overturn existing law.

Sara Palin is an idiot.

They had to hire a professional executive to run the day to day business when she was governor.

She knows nothing about fossil fuels, business, anything...
