I bet one of our answers will turn out to be correct.
I'll go with Joe Arpaio.

(60,878 posts)I assume that would rule out Arpaio and some others other people listed. However, a question I do not know the answer to - who is the acting head of the FBI now that Comey is out.
If he is a decent career guy, I suspect Trump will try to get the person he likes best who can be confirmed. If the acting head is a partisan Republican, he will be less pressed to pick someone acceptable.

I was being way out there when I said Arpaio, though.
