For Trump, Rudy Giuliani remains top contender for secretary of state
Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani remains the top contender to be the secretary of state in Donald Trump’s incoming Cabinet, CBS News’ Major Garrett reports.
Sunday’s meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey between the president-elect and Giuliani, a longtime Trump loyalist, will be the final one before the decision is made.
Giuliani, 72, lacks both federal government and foreign policy experience, but the former Republican mayor and federal prosecutor has curried Mr. Trump’s favor for his strong law-and-order stances.
The possibility that Giuliani could represent the United States as its chief diplomat has even some Republicans worried, however. On CBS’ “Face the Nation” Sunday, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul slammed Giuliani for being “unrepentant” in his support for the Iraq war, saying he and another possible contender, Ambassador John Bolton, “haven’t learned any of the lessons” from the Middle East conflict.
