Kellyanne Conway suggested Secretary of State Mike Pompeo could become the Trump administration’s fourth national security adviser
White House counselor Kellyanne Conway on Wednesday confirmed President Donald Trump is considering "five-plus" candidates to replace former national security adviser John Bolton, and did not rule out the possibility that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo could take over the role’s responsibilities.
“I believe that Secretary of State Pompeo is doing an excellent job over at State and that he will, of course, have input into who the next NSC head is, as well,” she said. “But there are many people of diverse backgrounds, all solid candidates, I know first-hand the president is considering for that position.”
Gans also said Kissinger's tenure leading both the State Department and the NSC, which "created power imbalances in the cabinet and management challenges at State and Defense," serves as a potent warning against a potential national security adviser Pompeo.
