Among those mentioned are former House speaker Newt Gingrich as secretary of state, Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn for defense secretary, former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani for attorney general, Steve Mnuchin, Trump’s campaign finance head, for Treasury secretary and top Jewish Republican Lew Eisenberg as Commerce Secretary.

In July Flynn came under fire for retweeting an anti-Semitic message. He later apologized and said he meant only to tweet an accompanying article.
