Four Cabinet spots still open in the Trump administration

Veterans Affairs

A whole host of names have been floated for the spot to lead the VA, which could receive a major shakeup under the Trump administration.

Businessman, Army veteran and former Central American Chamber of Commerce head Luis QuiƱonez met with Trump earlier this month to discuss the role.

Bloomberg reported that Cleveland Clinic CEO Toby Cosgrove, who withdrew from consideration to head the department under President Obama, is also a top contender for the post.

And The New York Times reported this month that Trump is considering U.S. Navy Admiral Michelle Howard, the leader of Navy forces in Europe. Howard is the first woman to become a four-star admiral in the Navy, as well as the first African-American woman to command a Navy ship.

The president-elect has considered Fox News contributors and analysts for other posts in his administration, and the VA is no exception.
