Basically, Trump told reporters that he is considering Dina Powell. But according to the CNN reporter above, Kaitlin Collins, Powell is not at the top of the list.
What he did say that is surprising a lot of Trump fans is that he’s NOT considering Rick Grenell as one of his five. It was reported earlier that Grenell was a ‘family favorite’ and some Trump supporters are not happy about this:
This is not good @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/Ro9pcNybpn

Other than that, we don’t know who is on his list. But what he did say was that Haley would help him choose her replacement, so that’s something to count on.
