In my post on President Trump’s 750th press conference, I introduced a few members of Trump’s future cabinet and heads of agencies.
In the satire piece, Ted Cruz is the vice president, Michael Cohen his attorney general, John Bolton secretary of defense, “Sheriff” Arpaio the director the FBI, Sarah Palin the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and Rush Limbaugh his press secretary.
In a Washington Post piece, Philip Bump also visualizes “what President Trump’s Cabinet will look like:”
Vice President: Oprah Winfrey.
Secretary of the Interior: Sarah Palin.
Attorney General: “His go-to counsel, Michael Cohen.”
Secretary of Homeland Security: Joe Arpaio.
Secretary of State: “We know that Trump thinks that Hillary Clinton was the worst secretary of state in American history. He clearly wants the opposite of that. So how about Vladimir Putin, whom Trump has repeatedly praised? He’s pretty opposite.”
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development: Ivanka Trump. “Public housing is basically just a no-frills hotel, right?”
Secretary of Health and Human Services: Dr. Oz.
Secretary of Transportation: Christophe Georges, president of Bentley Motors.
Secretary of Energy: Manoj Bhargava.
Secretary of Education: Michael Sexton, “former president of Trump University, which was a thing.”
Secretary of Agriculture: Tom Fazio, “Trump’s golf course architect.”
For Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and Secretary of Defense, Trump will appoint, according to Bump, who else but Donald Trump.
Read more about the logic here and, if you have the time and the humor, cobble together a Trump cabinet yourself — it is fun.
