With the Republican presidential nomination locked up, Donald Trump has already started cutting secret deals to surround himself with familiar faces, were told. And Confidenti@l has learned that one of those faces belongs to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
A secret deal has been struck by Donald Trump, and Rudy Giuliani would be head of Homeland Security, according to a GOP insider.
Theres no doubt that Trump could use a secretary of Homeland Security who can at least tell a skyscraper from a Slurpee machine. A couple of weeks ago, while campaigning in Buffalo, the bloviating billionaire recalled watching rescue workers down at 7/11 after the World Trade Center was destroyed on Sept 11, 2001.
Our source concedes that anything can happen between now and if and when The Donald actually finds himself in a position to pick cabinet members. But if the election were today, Rudy would be offered the post tomorrow.
Its my understanding that the two have talked directly (and) I know there have been serious talks on both sides, were told. Im told its a done deal, but until its on paper, I dont think anyone is counting on anything. Trump is already cutting deals as he moves to solidify his position in the party.
Giuliani has not formally endorsed The Donalds candidacy, but he has said that hed vote for the controversial candidate.
Hes my friend, and I think of the candidates, of the choices that I have, hes the best choice for President, Giuliani told The New York Times before last months New York primary.
Trump told Fox News on Tuesday that he hadnt yet made a decision regarding cabinet positions, but felt that Giuliani would be a wise choice for the job.
A Rudy rep insists that no meeting has taken place to discuss the job.
Theres zero truth to that rumor, Giuliani spokesman Tony Carbonetti tells Confidenti@l. Hes a friend of Donalds for 20-plus years and is focusing on uniting the party behind Donald and defeating Hillary Clinton.

So then why post your tabloid type garbage? You have always been fascinated with big foot, the Lockness monster and vast far fetched conspiracy theories.

If that misguided agency is to exist at all, it needs someone who understands that the biggest threat to America is our own out of control Godzilla Government.
Ron Paul is the man for the job. He wants to eliminate DHS entirely. We'd be a heck of a lot safer and more prosperous without it, and a few hundred other gov agencies.

These two need to get a room, and stay out of government.

I've got a sense of humor, but...
