Rep. Dana Rohrabacher Says Trump Admin Considering Him for Secretary of State
One day after Thanksgiving, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher tweeted out news that he is being considered for the position of Secretary of State in President-elect Donald Trump’s Administration.
Rohrabacher previously served as a senior speech writer for seven years as well as special assistant to former President Ronald Reagan. He is a senior member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and serves as chairman of the subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, and Emerging Threats. He is also a member of the subcommittee on Asia, the Pacific, and the Global Environment The California congressman was first elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1988 and is now serving his 13th term. He was a leading figure in the effort to boycott the 2008 Beijing, China Olympics on the basis of human rights violations, according to his website. The site also states, “As a senior member of the International Relations Committee, Rohrabacher led the effort to deny Most Favored Nation trading status to Communist China, citing the rogue nation’s dismal human rights record and opposition to democracy.”
In October Rohrabacher slammed Republicans who distanced themselves from Trump as “gutless,” then proclaimed, “We don’t have to just be concerned about saving House seats. We have to be concerned about saving the United States of America” according to the Orange County Register. Other names being tossed around as candidates for Secretary of State are former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani — a strong supporter of Trump during the election season — and failed 2008 and 2012 Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who repeatedly and harshly assailed Trump as unfit for the presidency and attempted to recruit a third party opponent to him during the 2016 election season.
He also believes voting in support of the 'Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002' was a mistake, supported the Russian annexation of Crimea, but still thinks bombing Serbia so the Kosovars could create their own permanent Muslim state in Europe was a good thing, so that's not so great.
ctrl+f on his wiki article and nothing about Israel, that's a good sign.
Julian Foster
Into the trash he goes.
Christian Hall
All things considered he seems better than most.
Has quickreply stopped working for anybody else?
Ryder Ross
Yeah, the site's fucking up again.
Luke Nelson
Sounds like a decent guy who won't be purged.
Jaxon Hall
I'd rather have Michael Scheuer to be honest family.
Jackson Ramirez
Based solely on OP's post, this guy seems pretty good with the exception of Is there anyone else rumored to be in the running as good as this guy?
Josiah Lee
We need him to be the head of the FBI to go after the bastards.
Chase Wilson
You aren't wrong… but everybody makes mistakes. Kosovo isn't and never should be considered a country however. At any rate, I'm still holding out hope for Tulsi Gabbard, she seems like a good pick both tactically (ie: I think she'd make a competent SoS) and strategically (ie: she'd make the left shit their drawers.)
Mason Jackson
No, obviously he's not full on Holla Forumsack but he's leagues ahead of the other cucks being floated around.
Caleb Cooper
I think the point in the greentext is a terrible thing, but no, there's nobody else better. Unless there's somebody else we're not aware of
Hunter Cooper
We already have Bosnia and Albania, mind you, it's not like some huge line was crossed.
And bombed serbroaches is always a good thing while we wait for based Croats to annex the Balkans.
ZA DOM SPREMNI!
Carter Williams
...
Christopher Allen
His position on Ukraine is decent and would enflame the "everybody I don't like is a Russian propagandist" crowd
Julian Parker
...
Joseph Bell
why do croshits say this? It's embarrassing and shit tier even for meme humor
Carter Cruz
It's kind of interesting that there's even an anti-immigration Republican in power in California. I guess Orange County really does have some people who get it
Daniel Sullivan
Wouldn't he be better in a position to affect or influence international policy and relations? FBI is supposed to be strictly domestic and in a Law Enforcement capacity. They don't have much pull on policy, but instead are sent where directed. Scheuer needs to be pissing in Trump's ear and shaping foreign policy.
As I understand it, Orange County is full of super-wealthy cuckservative types who don't want to lose their money or their badass geography to spics and welfare niggers, so they tend to be more right/republican than the rest of CA. But of course, that's like being the skinniest kid at fatcamp.
Hudson Bell
Nobody cares about his stance on an irrelevant Balko-Turkic backwater state
Brandon Thompson
OC user here, it's a fucked hodge-podge of ridiculously rich white areas (republican), sort of rich white/gook areas (50-50 R/D), moderately wealthy white areas (republican), and various third world enclaves of gooks and spics (democrat obviously).
Brandon Jackson
Because unlike in Shitbia it's normal to be fascist in Croatia. (Serbia's okay in my book but Balkan shitposting muss leben).
Caleb Nelson
Semms like a decent salute to me, whats to complain about? Is Sieg Heil cringey too?
Jack Green
tbh lads

I'm tired of seeing this shilling constantly. OUT OUT OUT.
Gabriel White
It's not shilling to want an non-interventionist as SoS.
A Neocohen's view on immigration is completely irrelevant if they want to crusade for Democracy in the middle east.
Luke Jackson
The closing of our borders is much more important than the bombing of a few sand niggers.
Noah Morales
Indeed. Scheuer would be better for international stuff. I feel as if he may not be on Trump's radar due to being out of the limelight for a bit. We should pester Trump with this pick.
Evan Cruz
She deserves some bullshit useless position at most.
Luis Sullivan
tbh that was one thing Israel did right, except they should have used live rounds on the hippies.
Ethan King
Tulsi Gabbard
She deserves to be tortured slowly to death.
Evan Moore
The Secretary of State has nothing to do with immigration policy you retard.
Gavin Hughes
I know that, and? Do you want to give government positions to traitors?
