NEW YORK — Donald Trump said Sunday he tapped Reince Priebus — the Republican Party chairman who helped engineer his stunning presidential victory last week — as his White House chief of staff.


Trump also considered campaign CEO Steve Bannon for the slot, but announced that the former Breitbart News executive would serve chief strategist and senior counselor for the administration that takes office in little more than two months.
“I am thrilled to have my very successful team continue with me in leading our country,” Trump said in a statement. “Steve and Reince are highly qualified leaders who worked well together on our campaign and led us to a historic victory. Now I will have them both with me in the White House as we work to make America great again.”
In thanking Trump for the appointment, Priebus said he would strive to "create an economy that works for everyone, secure our borders, repeal and replace Obamacare and destroy radical Islamic terrorism."
Bannon, who began working with Trump over the summer, said that "we had a very successful partnership on the campaign, one that led to victory. We will have that same partnership in working to help President-elect Trump achieve his agenda.”
While planning to move forward soon with staff and policy decisions, Trump also said this weekend that his proposed wall along the U.S.-Mexican border may include some fencing instead and his initial deportation plan will focus on "criminals" who are in the country illegally.
In "certain areas, a wall is more appropriate," but "there could be some fencing," Trump said in an interview with CBS’ Sunday newsmagazine 60 Minutes.
While pledging more deportations, Trump said he would emphasize criminals before deciding what to do about law-abiding families who are in the country illegally.
"What we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers," Trump told CBS, later adding: "After the border is secure and after everything gets normalized, we're going to make a determination on the people that they're talking about who are terrific people."
Trump put the number of deportable criminals at two to three million. but immigration experts say it is much lower.
In addition to the 60 Minutes interview, the president-elect and aides holed up high in Trump Tower throughout the weekend as they pursued staffing decisions and policy planning for an administration that takes office in little more than two months.
Since his surprise election win over Democrat Hillary Clinton on Tuesday night, Trump has granted a couple of select interviews, spoken with Republican officials and foreign leaders — and tweeted, including more pot shots at his media coverage.
"Wow, the @nytimes is losing thousands of subscribers because of their very poor and highly inaccurate coverage of the 'Trump phenomena," Trump tweeted early Sunday.
In the 60 Minutes interview, Trump called social media a key to his victory over Clinton, and said he expects to continue to use Twitter and other social media while in the White House.
"I'm not saying I love it, but it does get the word out," Trump told CBS News. "When you give me a bad story or when you give me an inaccurate story or when somebody other than you (does so) .... I have a method of fighting back."
Trump also pledged to be "very restrained" with social media, saying "the fact that I have such power in terms of numbers with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, et cetera, I think it helped me win all of these races where they're spending much more money than I spent. And I won."
Social media, Trump said, "has more power than the money they spent, and I think maybe to a certain extent, I proved that."
Trump also seemed to extend olive branches to his critics over the weekend, including possible compromises on his plan to repeal President Obama's health care law.
Trump spoke in terms of keeping provisions that forbid insurance companies from denying coverage to people with pre-existing conditions.
Trump has also said his priorities include a program of road-and-bridge projects ("infrastructure"), de-regulation of financial institutions, and beefing up border against drugs and illegal immigration.
While the Trump campaign has provided little information, foreign governments have confirmed that their leaders spoke with the president-elect. The government of France, for example, said President Francois Hollande spoke with Trump for some 10 minutes Friday about terrorism and Syria.
A Japanese official said Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will be in New York on Thursday to meet with the incoming U.S. President.
As Trump and his team huddled upstairs in his Manhattan tower, thousands of demonstrators massed outside on Fifth Avenue throughout the weekend, protesting what they called his racist and sexist behavior throughout the campaign. Many protesters pointed out that Clinton will likely win the popular vote over Trump.
In a weekend interview with The Wall Street Journal, Trump said he wants to bring the country together after a rancorous campaign.
Asked if he regretted his own aggressive rhetoric, Trump told the Journal: "No, I won."

Yes. The alt-right will take a premium spot in the Trump administration, with Bannon in the position of chief strategist and senior counsel.

How Bannon’s unhinged, fire breathing thuggery will mesh with Priebus’ more disciplined approach to governing remains to be seen.

It sounds like a heady blend of chaos.

Priebus - The man who decisively assured that Ron Paul would not be president. And hence that Obama would get 8 glorious years in the white house. The worst of the worst so far in the 21st century. Now trump's right-hand man.


 But Priebus did not just rewrite the rules of 2012. More ominously, he and the Romney team rewrote the rules of 2016. The party brass engineered a fundamental change in the next nominating process in order to assure that neither Paul—nor anyone else as interesting, or dissenting—will ever again be able to beat the establishment at its own game and win substantial numbers of delegates.

11-13-2016, 04:48 PM
Bannon hates the establishment, I don't have a problem with him being in there as chief strategist if the goal continues to be taking down the establishment. Not hopeful either way in terms of liberty being the focus, so if it's an anti-establishment presidency I guess that's the best a libertarian could hope for with the slew of authoritarian plans they have in the mix.

Which leads to Priebus, who is establishment through and through, friends with all of the big GOP establishment people. Huh.. He has connections and will use them to maximize Trumps plans, or so they tell us. Not a fan and yes, any rpfer worth their salt remembers the crap he pulled during the entire 2012 GOP primary which culminated in pulling some bs during the RNC convention to not even announcing Paul's name during the delegate count, in order to ensure the election of his friend Romney. Just politics right? Interested to see how this is going to work, although they did work together to win the presidency and overcome the media and onslaught of false prophets and predictions. I'd feel a little better if Priebus was not in the mix.

The honeymoon is over. It was delightful and delicious watching Trump crush Hillary and cause liberal lefties to cry from coast to coast. It really has been a spectacle to witness. This has been entertaining no doubt, but some of these picks are going to be unpopular as anything in libertarian circles and to a lesser degree in Breitbart republican circles.

He's definitely being replaced now, probably by Randy Evans. This is after the Trump campaign helped them freeze out the grassroots conservatives on the Rules Committee in exchange for keeping other names off the nomination ballot. The rules changes they rammed through in 2012 were made much worse for the future.

I personally don't like Reince as CoS but if Trump believes Reince is loyal enough to be CoS, I would trust that judgement. Apparently Reince has been very on board with Trump and one of his top loyal and most hard working people on the campaign. Trump even offered Reince the mic to speak during his victory speech, pretty unheard of. Trump must have a very high impression of him.

Here's the section from 60 minutes interview about lobbyists:


Lesley Stahl: You said that lobbyists owned politicians because they give them money.

Donald Trump: Yeah.

Lesley Stahl: You admitted you used to do it yourself. You have a transition team—

Donald Trump: And when you say lobbyists, lobbyists and special interests.

Lesley Stahl: And you want to get rid of all of that?

Donald Trump: I don’t like it, no.

Lesley Stahl: You don’t like it, but your own transition team, it’s filled with lobbyists.

Donald Trump: That’s the only people you have down there.

Lesley Stahl: You have lobbyists from Verizon, you have lobbyists from the oil gas industry, you have food lobby.

Donald Trump: Sure. Everybody’s a lobbyist down there--

Lesley Stahl: Well, wait

Donald Trump: That’s what they are. They’re lobbyists or special interests—

Lesley Stahl: On your own transition team.

Donald Trump:–we are trying to clean up Washington. Look--

Lesley Stahl: How can you claim--

Donald Trump: Everything, everything down there-- there are no people-- there are all people that work -- that’s the problem with the system, the system. Right now, we’re going to clean it up. We’re having restrictions on foreign money coming in, we’re going to put on term limits, which a lot of people aren’t happy about, but we’re putting on term limits. We’re doing a lot of things to clean up the system. But everybody that works for government, they then leave government and they become a lobbyist, essentially. I mean, the whole place is one big lobbyist.

Lesley Stahl: But you’re, but you’re basically saying you have to rely on them, even though you want to get rid of them?

Donald Trump: I’m saying that they know the system right now, but we’re going to phase that out. You have to phase it out.http://www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-donald-trump-family-melania-ivanka-lesley-stahl/

Trump is a guy that likes to know what is going on in his organization, the man could've retired a long time ago and just fly everyday on his plane to different parts of the world with his hot wife and chill with celebrities, but he works.

I think there is a fair argument that can be made that he will be running his own show at the white house. Of course no president, no matter how diligent, can know what every employee is doing but I think the intent is there.

Trump as a person is different from everyone else in DC. He doesn't care about the party and is one of few people who really has no allegiance to anybody in DC. He cares about himself, his TRUMP brand, his legacy, his family, someone like that has the incentive to do good. Let's just hope the lobbyists don't get to him. Obviously he has shown he is not afraid of bad press or people hating him.

It's going to be tough for him but I have a feeling Trump will be running the show and not advisors.
His campaign for a longtime was mostly a one man show, he probaby had very few people to choose from that fit his criterion. Unlike Hillary who lately spent more time on preparing her transition team than convincing voters, he spent almost all of his resources on winning election and now seems to be putting together transition team in a rush.

So, I guess we can conclude that Bannon is not an Israel-firster? That's typically what the media means by "anti-semite"

In this case, I don't believe that that rule of thumb applies. Pamela Geller loves him to death. The only reason he called Kristol a renegade Jew was because he didn't support Trump, not because Bannon had any problem with neoconservatism or Israel-first.

The whole "feud" with Priebus was a scam to make Trump look anti-establishment. All the while the RNC was using Trump Victory funds to set up field operations.

I disagree. I think it was real, and Trump caved to everyone telling him they are going to make his life hell if he doesn't make Priebus COS. He made the decision shortly after talking to the Bush crime family. I'm waiting to see who fills the cabinet, and what Trump actually does in his first 100 days before I decide he's a fraud.

Priebus also back stabbed Ron Paul and pretty much the entire GOP. You can be a Trump supporter all you want, but really, if you do want Trump to succeed, suggest that he kick Priebus to the curb, hard, then throw his sorry ass in the woods where he belongs.

Pence was chosen to appease evangelicals and balance out the temperament concerns. There is a risk that he isn't an adequate insurance policy. Regarding Priebus, Bannon is ahead of him in terms of influence. CoS can be more ceremonial and managerial in terms of White House day-to-day activities.

If this is, in fact, the case, then I'm ok with this. If it appeases the neocons and gives Trump a go between, but limits Priebus' influence, then it's not necessarily a bad choice. We'll see how things play out.

WASHINGTON—Aides to President-elect Donald Trump are focusing on former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton as the leading candidates to be the next secretary of state, two people familiar with the process said.

The choice between the two would force Mr. Trump to choose between Mr. Giuliani, a longtime friend and ally in New York, and Mr. Bolton, a hawkish conservative diplomat who called last year for the U.S. to bomb Iran.

A final decision could be several weeks away, these people said.

During his six years as U.S. Attorney, Giuliani worked tirelessly to jail drug dealers, prosecute white-collar criminals and disrupt organized crime and government corruption. Giuliani's 4,152 convictions (against only 25 reversals) distinguish him as one of the most effective U.S. Attorneys in American history. It was also as a U.S. Attorney that Giuliani began to develop his reputation as something of a publicity seeker, sometimes publicly handcuffing mob bosses and business leaders on trumped up charges only to quietly drop the charges later.

Rudy was out campaigning for Secretary of State today. http://www.wsj.com/articles/rudy-giuliani-says-defeating-isis-to-be-early-focus-of-donald-trumps-foreign-policy-1479174875


Rudy Giuliani Says Defeating ISIS to Be Early Focus of Donald Trump’s Foreign Policy

WASHINGTON—Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Monday that President-elect Donald Trump would likely focus much of his initial foreign-policy strategy on destroying Islamic State, setting aside more vexing problems in the Middle East and elsewhere.

The comments came shortly after The Wall Street Journal reported that Mr. Giuliani is one of the leading candidates to become Mr. Trump’s first secretary of state.

During an appearance Monday evening at The Wall Street Journal CEO Council gathering, Mr. Giuliani suggested several times that he would be interested in the post, going into great detail about how he views foreign policy and how his views overlap with Mr. Trump’s.

“ISIS, short-term I believe, is the greatest danger and not because ISIS is in Iraq and in Syria, but because ISIS did something al Qaeda never did—ISIS was able to spread itself around the world,” he said.

More at link.

Russia may not like it:


“Russia thinks it’s a military competitor, it really isn’t,” Mr. Giuliani said. “It’s our unwillingness under Obama to even threaten the use of our military that makes Russia so powerful.”

Another source at the same event says Giuliani is not interested in Attorney General though he threatened to go after Clinton if he is.


Giuliani said at a Wall Street Journal CEO Council event in Washington that he won't be attorney general in Trump's administration.

That's one of the jobs the former federal prosecutor and top Trump adviser has been seen as a top contender for.

He is the one who was largely responsible for his success IMO. Trump's message was brutal and powerful in the final days. The substance really seemed to pick up when Bannon took charge. I think Bannon has the talent, balls and is ideologically right enough to do a good job for Trump as strategist. Not sure if it offsets Priebus but it was a good pick.

Trump destroyed the GOP where Ron Paul Delegates failed. Every single GOP nominee said Trump would not be the nominee.

Trump won where it mattered. Popular Votes. yea I know Republic.... Republic Electoral College was designed to prevent Trump from being president. Will the Electoral College not vote for Trump in December? All the talk about the Republic is bullshit. Popular Votes are what matters.

Wait... wuh?? Trump LOST the popular vote by almost a million and counting. What exactly are you saying?

You just don't understand. Authority-loving, liberty-hating Giuliani is no threat to anyone unless he's Secretary of State.

But if he's in charge of anything else - say, oh ... the Department of "Justice" - then "you are safe" ... :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Bolton would be horrible choice. HORRIBLE.

Guliani not a gr8 pick for AG, but if he really went after & put away the large circle of crooks within the Clinton Crime family (RICO) I could be talked into choice.

it's okay if he's anti liberty so long as he does things that I like

I love how Trump circumvented Kushner. Kushner is a no good Democrat, but he can't fire his son-in-law because Ivanka would cry.

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/11/donald-trump-cabinet-transition-battles-231442


It was another illustration of the influence of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, who undermined Christie, the prosecutor who put his father in prison a decade ago, throughout the campaign. Kushner, who is likely to maintain his influence in an unofficial role outside the West Wing, also flexed his muscle over the weekend as Trump was deciding on his chief of staff.

According to two sources inside Trump Tower, the president-elect himself was leaning toward naming Bannon as chief of staff—until Kushner stepped in, raising concerns about putting the anti-establishment, alt-right figure in a position that holds so much symbolic and strategic importance.

Although Trump listened to his son-in-law and went with Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus to run day-to-day operations inside his White House, he elevated Bannon as senior counselor and chief strategist, even listing him above Priebus on the press release announcing the new roles.

Wow, nice, slander, I never said that.. the lowest age of consent I've ever suggested is 15 or 16. In many US states it is 16. Some countries even lower. 18 is too high ,yes. But 13 is definitely too low. Thanks for taking the discussion totally off course.

And the insiders aren't on point or anything, it's called strategy. The point was Trump didn't want the establishment guy, but he picked him for strategic purposes. Trump is still his boss, and you have no idea what Trump will actually do as President.

GOP Backs Ryan as Speaker Gets Ally in Trump’s White House

Paul Ryan, who won unanimous backing to remain House speaker by his Republican colleagues on Tuesday, can thank Donald Trump for helping shore up his hold on the job.

The president-elect’s appointment Sunday of Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus to be his White House chief of staff was a key signal to House Republicans that Trump plans to try working with Ryan, a man he attacked bitterly on Twitter several times in the final months of the campaign.

"Welcome to the dawn of a new, unified Republican government," Ryan told reporters Tuesday after House Republicans’ weekly closed-door meeting. "This will be a government focused on turning President-elect Trump’s victory into real progress for the American people."

Ryan and Priebus are longtime friends and allies who rose through the same ladder of Wisconsin politics.

"Hiring Reince Priebus as his chief of staff is a perfect indication of our new president’s desire to get things done," Ryan said during a Wisconsin radio interview Monday. "Not to mention the fact that we all know Reince very well."

Priebus’s appointment has buoyed Republican hopes that Congress will be able to work closely with a Trump White House to enact significant legislation.

"It’s a good thing, I think, for both the White House and certainly a good thing for the House conference that we’ve got the kind of relationship that Reince and Paul have with one another built up over the years," said Representative Tom Cole of Oklahoma.

Cole also noted that Vice President-elect Mike Pence, who served in the House for 12 years, is close friends with Ryan as well.


Strong Relationship

"So, we’ve probably got as strong a relationship with an incoming administration as any certainly Republican conference, maybe Democratic conference, has had in a long time," Cole said. He said there are "really close personal friends with the speaker in absolutely critical spots of the administration and I think that is a good sign we can get things done."

Representative Lou Barletta, an early Trump backer now serving on the transition’s executive committee, said Monday that the Ryan-Priebus connection should help the relationship between the House and the Trump White House.

"I know the speaker and president-elect have gotten together and that’s what’s important now, to be able to work together. We have a lot of issues to resolve," said Barletta, a Pennsylvania Republican.
