From CNN:
Amid calls by the GOP for Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner’s resignation, one Republican is offering an unorthodox choice for a potential replacement.
“Ask Donald Trump to be Treasury secretary,” Mike Huckabee said on Fox News Channel.
The former Arkansas governor elaborated: “Have Donald Trump take the job for 90 days. It’s a game changer.”…
Trump certainly wouldn’t be worse than Geithner and may end up a lot better. Certainly, unless Obama really changes course at this point we’re heading for a really bad time. Even a major course change won’t completely get us out of the soup…but swift action, now, can prevent “bad” from becoming “hideous”. If not Trump, then someone who has a bit of guts and a bit of knowledge of business.
But I doubt we’ll see it – Obama may call in Underbus to rid himself of a political liability, but I doubt Obama even sees the need for a real change, let alone what that change might entail.
