Democrat Harold Ford, Jr. possible Trump pick
Ford could be transportation secretary.
Click here for reuse options!Ford, Jr. is emerging as a possible contender for transportation secretary, or another Cabinet post, in Donald Trump’s budding administration.
The telegenic Ford — who served five terms in Congress representing Tennessee and is the son of a long-serving Democratic congressman from Memphis — has worked as a managing director at Morgan Stanley since 2011, and is a regular news analyst on MSNBC.
Ford endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 race, and he and his wife, Emily, contributed to Clinton’s campaign. But Ford is also close with Trump’s children, Don Jr., Ivanka, and son-in-law Jared Kushner, an associate said.

Would Ford want to tarnish his career by being tied to the worst Presidency in generations? I would like to see a Democrat somewhere in that cabinet just to keep an eye on what is going on, but they will most likely be the sacrificial lamb if they do.

I don’t think any one in their right mind would work for Trump…It is going to be a real clusterfuck no matter who he has in his cabinet…there will be no one in Trump’s administration that will be allowed to think for themselves…this nation is in trouble, and Russia knows it because they helped it…we are almost guaranteed to have one of the worst administrations in our history…coupled with a corrupted and perverted congress and an activist supreme court, we will be lucky to have an election in two years…

He only shows up on Morning Blow which is right wing and sickening. His political career is already over, so this would be the icing on the cake. BTW, isn’t Trump going to run out soon of family to hire and friends of family?

Being associated with Trump in any way will only be a negative to your future.
