On the local Knoxville news last night

[TNNurse]

the story was about the vacancies on the board of TVA (the Tennessee Valley Authority) since Congress did not accept Obama's appointees. So Trump will name 3 and maybe 2 more later on. My first thought was who is going to teach Trump what TVA is? Who can make him understand it's history, function and impact? I am sure it will be a new concept for him. Senators Alexander, Corker, Congressman Duncan and many others will need to start from the beginning and use words Trump will understand. God help us. He will want to go with all nuclear power plants.

1. Trump doesn't care about such matters

He will take whichever names he's given. But I doubt any new president outside of the area knows anything about TVA.

2. I understand that

except that TVA is a federally owned corporation and it involves...VA/TN/GA/AL/NC/KY/MS.

3. they are going to want to privatize it

4. Their answer to everything.

I wonder how many people in the area and who count on TVA for power (and recreation, all those lakes) voted for him. Many problem work for TVA related businesses, too.

9. This one would.

Of course, I also have an agriculture plan to unveil in Iowa.

5. Trump thinks TVA is a bankrupt airline.

[TNNurse]

6. Probably

7. This is the end

of the TVA. Expect it to be broken up and sold off.
