    The story in the New York Times regarding Jim Webb being considered as the next Secretary of Defense is FAKE NEWS. I’m sure he is a fine man, but I don’t know Jim, and never met him. Patrick Shanahan, who is Acting Secretary of Defense, is doing a great job!

        Reminiscent of when Trump tweeted “Kasich was never offered the VP slot by me!” when JK even said it was Junior making the offer.

        Sort of a shame. Webb would have been a pretty good choice. His creds go way up if he said, "No way".

        Yes, and we know how the president would never hire anyone that he didn’t know and wasn’t properly vetted.
