Huge! After FOX attack on Trump during the debate, financial titan Carl Icahn changed his mind and stated that he will be willing to be the Secretary of Treasury under President Trump. Icahn is sickened by the way media elects the president

Billionaire financier Carl Icahn just may have changed his tune on being Donald Trump’s Treasury Secretary.
“After last night’s debate I decided to accept @realDonaldTrump offer for Secretary of Treasury,” he tweeted Friday afternoon following Thursday’s Republican presidential debates. “Seriously, the methods of electing our corporate and political leaders have become completely dysfunctional,” he said in follow-up tweet, adding in a third: “In both areas, we are in dire need of a breath of fresh air.”
What did he mean exactly? Was it all a joke? As his social-media fans RT and favorite his tweets, Icahn’s office said he was not immediately available for comment.
Trump, who leads the 17-candidate Republican primary field in polling, had suggested the former corporate raider for the spot on June 18. Icahn had demurred, saying he was “flattered” and also impressed by the real estate mogul’s comments on the Fed. Alas, Icahn does “not get up early enough in the morning to accept this opportunity,” he said.
It’s unclear if Trump had made a formal offer for the cabinet position, which doesn’t normally come until a candidate has actually been elected. Trump has also said former GE CEO Jack Welch and KKR co-founder Henry Kravis could run Treasury.

Rush says he saw the Trumpcentric attack coming and that the Republican colleagues on the podium did not play along with Fox as it was assumed they would:

According to the mainstream media, the winner was … Fox News.
According to Rush Limbaugh, the loser was … Fox News.
At least, in the sense that the network may have blown its credibility with conservatives.
And Limbaugh said he saw it coming.
“Everybody should have known this was gonna happen,” he said. “This is presidential politics, and Republican candidates are where media people score their points.
It’s where they build their careers.
It’s where they establish their credentials.”

Veritas, I listened to the Shoebat recording of Megyn Kelley. I was shocked at how willing she was to participate in the conversation when Stern’s questions became very personal. If she couldn’t respect her own personal privacy, she should have at leaqst respected her husband’s personal privacy.

How refreshing to have Icahn as Secretary of Treasury, someone who has solid financial success rather than the political hacks who are appointed because of their connections.

I so much want TRUMP to be respected and believed! I know he is a successful businessman and could do what he says.
BUT how can we tell him that “Strong” does not equal “Rude”. “Calm” does not equal “weak”.
“Power” does not equal “fight”.
Hope he can turn down the words of “me-me-me” and bring out the message for all of us.
To not give opposition any fodder!
Make America GREAT Again!
