Barstool Sports – Donald Trump worried that Rudy Giuliani might lack the stamina to fulfill the duties of secretary of state, according to a report.
Once a leading candidate to be America’s top diplomat, Giuliani fell out of favor, in part because Trump began to question the 72-year-old’s fitness, according to the Wall Street Journal, which cited an unnamed transition official.
Giuliani strongly disagreed, telling the paper: “My stamina is unbelievable.”
The former mayor, who was one of the billionaire’s fiercest loyalists on the campaign trail, has said he has so far passed on two cabinet postings in the Trump administration, without specifying which posts.
Rex Tillerson, the CEO of ExxonMobil, was announced Tuesday as Trump’s choice to be secretary of state.

Lets not confuse this. Giualiani should wear a hat topped with a weather vane instead of a “Make Mexico Great Again” slogan. Trump can excuse and forgive most of the flip floppers that came slithering back into his camp after his historic victory. But the really visible detractors like Romney and Rudy, will not have a visible place. Its bad form for Rudy to publicly state anything other than gratitude for even being considered.
