Good question 6:53pm the anti Trump media is already trying to discredit her for her good work against terrorism, but it only makes more credible for doing anything necessary. The anti Trump media appears to be pro terrorist.

I'm not familiar with her career, but there have been many successful heads of spy agencies in movies and books. Judi Dench for one, and isn't the head of the CIA a woman in Vince Flynn's novels?
