Stein also asked for a recount in Pennsylvania and was expected to do the same in MI, where officials certified Trump’s victory Monday.
“Kellyanne doesn’t have a job yet, and she’s angry about that”, Scarborough said. The campaign had raised about $5.2 million as of Friday afternoon. John Bolton, for one, boasts serious State Department experience under two Republican presidents. “It is not a serious effort to change the election results”. “Because that’s where all the sourcing comes from, the people closest to Donald Trump”. Politico, citing a source close to the transition, reported that Republican US Representative Lou Barletta of Pennsylvania was also being considered for that job. “He basically walked us around the world”, he said. She served in various posts under former Presidents Nixon Ford and Reagan.
California Secretary of State Alex Padilla called Trump’s allegations unsubstantiated and Virginia Commissioner of Elections Edgardo Cortes said they were unfounded. And they’re waving their hands to get Trump’s attention the best way they know how: in public.
All of these appointments are subject to approval from the Senate.
He has so far appointed Alabama senator Jeff Sessions as Attorney General, Kansas congressman Mike Pompeo as Central Intelligence Agency director, SC governor Nikki Haley as United Nations ambassador and Republican Party donor Betsy DeVos as Education Secretary.
NEW YORK (AP) – President-elect Donald Trump made two Cabinet selections on Tuesday, choosing fierce Obamacare critic Georgia Rep. Tom Price to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, and Elaine Chao, who served in the Cabinet of George W. Bush, to serve as the secretary of the Department of Transportation.

On “State of the Union“, Conway said Trump was not focused on prosecuting Clinton, but wouldn’t rule it out – something that indicated Trump was being “incredibly gracious and magnanimous” to Clinton, she added. He suggested her actions were worse than those by Petraeus. No, she is. I can report that and so she’s striking out. Romney vehemently opposed Trump’s nomination early in the campaign, assailing the billionaire as a “phony”.
Petraeus’ past mishandling of classified documents is unlikely to be an obstacle to Trump offering him a top government post, even though Trump harshly criticized Democratic rival Hillary Clinton during the campaign for using a private email server while she was secretary of state. “And were loyal. Good checklist”.
You have left for this month. “Thank you for the privilege of a lifetime, #PEOTUS”.
But the only evidence he raised was a 2014 news report and a study on voting irregularities conducted before the 2016 election. “Every other Republican’s going to cut”, Trump told the Daily Signal. “He went out of his way to hurt Donald Trump“.
Meanwhile, his transition team was stepping up its effort to raise money for inaugural festivities.
Aides were divided over Trump’s choices.
Trump is expected to name more members of his administration this week. Petraeus has also been mentioned as a possible new secretary of defence.
Trump last week moved to broaden his cabinet base beyond mainly older white men by nominating South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley – whose parents are Indian immigrants – as USA ambassador to the United Nations.
In the wake of the backlash, both Trump and Conway attempted to push back on the rumors that the latter had strayed from the pack.
