Former Texas Comptroller Susan Combs to meet with Trump team
A new name from Texas is surfacing as President-elect Donald Trump works to fill his administration: former state Comptroller Susan Combs.
Combs will meet Tuesday in Washington, D.C., with Vice President-elect Mike Pence, according to Trump aides. The meeting will also include U.S. Rep. Kevin Brady, R-The Woodlands.
Combs, who has also served as agriculture commissioner and a state representative, was not a vocal Trump supporter during the campaign. In the Republican primaries, she helped lead the Texas campaign of Carly Fiorina, the former Hewlett Packard CEO whose looks Trump had mocked. After Fiorina dropped out, Combs threw her support to U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.
During an appearance in September at the Texas Tribune Festival, Combs said she intended to vote for Trump but expressed some reservations.
