Is He In? Allen West Meets With Pence, Flynn, McFarland At Trump Tower
Former Rep. Allen West (R-FL)—perhaps most known for his scorched-earth rhetoric and controversial comments, including accusing Wal-Mart of bowing to Sharia law by not allowing underage employees to sell alcohol and calling #BringBackOurGirls a distraction from Benghazi—met with top members of President-elect Donald Trump's inner circle on Monday.
West told reporters at Trump Tower in New York that he discussed national security issues with Vice President-elect Mike Pence, retired Gen. Mike Flynn, and Kathleen Troia "KT" McFarland on Monday. Trump selected Flynn as his national security adviser and named McFarland as his deputy national security adviser in November.
"We talked about some national security issues, and you know how maybe I can continue to serve my country," West said, according to a transition pool report. He said that no particular position was offered to him.
"I mean they know my reputation very well," West told reporters. "I'm just a simple soldier. He can choose whoever he wants for secretary of state," he added, saying that he was considering how to "best serve this country and through this administration."
