Donald Trump nominated Marco Rubio to be Secretary Of State. I think there’s little doubt he’ll sail through his Senate hearings, being, as he is, a member in good standing of “the club.” He won’t be Chairman of Senate Intelligence Committee in a new Republican majority Senate, and he was due to take the gavel!
