A discussion on MSNBC on Friday morning about President-elect Donald Trump's selection of Pam Bondi to replace ex-Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) as his potential attorney general then turned to other problematic cabinet selections.
According to "Morning Joe" contributor Katty Kay, with Gaetz becoming yesterday's news after the embattled Florida Republican withdrew his name for consideration on Thursday, the spotlight has shifted to Trump's choice of ex-Rep. Tulsi Gabbard to be Trump's pick to be director of national intelligence.
With co-host Scarborough bluntly stating he doesn't think Gabbard will survive scrutiny of her record by Republicans and Democrats alike, Kay claimed her reputation among insiders likely precludes her from landing the highly sensitive intel post.
"It's interesting talking to people in the intelligence community certainly but also in the national security side, but you're right, Joe, it is Tulsi Gabbard that's provoking more concern actually than [Defense Secretary nominee] Pete Hegseth is," she reported.
"Maybe because people feel at the Department of Defense can work around Pete Hegseth," she elaborated. "Maybe it's because you still have the Secretary of State Marco Rubio as a national security adviser who can mitigate what happens at DOD in terms of that position. But Tulsi Gabbard – from what I have been told is that one thing she's not particularly famous for is keeping secrets."
"There's an irony of putting somebody who has that reputation at the head of the intelligence community," she added.
