7am – D         Trump considering Democratic Sen. Manchin for energy secretary.

US President-elect Donald Trump is considering Democratic Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia for energy secretary, Politico reported on Thursday, citing unnamed sources close to the discussions. Manchin “is being considered to show the coal people how serious Trump is about coal,” Politico quoted one source as saying.

Aha: Trump considering Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin for Secretary of Energy. So Trump’s meeting with another Democrat, Heidi Heitkamp, wasn’t just a one-off thing. It’s part of a broader strategy to turn the Senate a deeper shade of red by kicking a few centrist Dems upstairs. Appointing Manchin would serve two purposes, actually — freeing up his Senate seat and rewarding West Virginia, Manchin’s home state, for handing Trump one of his most lopsided margins of victory on election day.
