Rumor has it that the quest for White House Press Secretary is going to be over soon and it will be one of two people, either Scott Jennings, or MAGA radio host Ben Ferguson, with the latter being favored to get the nod from Trump. Some of the other names will surprise you. Raw Story:
Trump’s “instincts are to pick a man,” a source close to the president told Fox News Digital on Tuesday. The outlet reported that conservative radio host and CNN commentator Ben Ferguson has emerged as a frontrunner, with the source saying his name “has been brought up to the president by many people.”
A second person familiar with the search confirmed to Fox that Trump plans to tap a man for the job and that Ferguson, host of the nationally syndicated “The Ben Ferguson Show,” is near the top of the list.
Still, Trump hasn’t made up his mind. “POTUS is not sold on the idea,” the first source said, adding that Ferguson is actively pursuing the role and Trump knows it.
CNN contributor Scott Jennings, a George W. Bush administration veteran, is also in the mix, though the source said Trump keeps flip-flopping on him and predicted he won’t get the nod. Other names that have come up include White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, Breitbart’s Matthew Boyle and former Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer.
Steven Cheung would be absolutely wild in the job, the way he badmouthes people. I would say that he is the bridge too far, but we saw Jim Jordan take the Minority Leader gig just this morning, so rule nothing out in this day and age.
Interesting that Trump has decided to go with a guy and not another Fox News blonde.
