Vivek Ramaswamy, Dark-horse Secretary of State Candidate

Summary

Nutrition label

72% Informative

Richard Grenell , Marco Rubio , Bill Hagerty and Vivek Ramaswamy are the darkhorse candidates for secretary of state .

The American Conservative can confirm that President-elect Donald Trump’s search for Secretary of State has narrowed to four candidates.

The selection process is expected to be far more expedited with a decision and announcement possible as soon as Monday .

Many see Ramaswamy as Trump ’s spiritual godfather, but he opposes military aid to Israel .

Hagerty and Rubio may well be afforded deference by their colleagues, but Senate vacancies are a tricky business.

Trump may not want to lose many—or any—of the current cast of characters in the upper chamber.

Hawks like Lindsey Graham would shriek at the selection, at least behind closed doors. But Graham would risk losing influence with Trump for good if he starts opposing his considered choices for the great offices of state. It would certainly be the bold move, and the strongest signal yet that Trump means business on correcting the personnel problems of the first term. As one advocate of Ramaswamy ’s cause put it, “Out with the old, in with the new.”.
