More From Trent Lott

When you're offered a job to serve your country, you step back and assess. and once i spoke with president trump and told him what i thought i needed to be successful - which was to be a cabinet member; to be on the national security council, where i could be a part of the policy decisions; and to be able to say what i wanted to say - how do you not do that job? he was incredibly supportive. he's continued to be. i love a good challenge, and this certainly has been that.

Coolidge liked the dignity of the presidency. he didn't get on the phone easily. it's possible that he banished the phone from his desk. he was known to use it from time to time. the person who was hilarious with the phone was hoover. he was a real engineer. he made a closed circuit phone where he could call the important people and they could call him, a government hotline, but it was closed. he shut out the possibility of input from people he didn't expect to get input from.

There is the possibility that these troops will be used against us if we are victorious. there is also the possibility that in fact the south africans are there at the invitation of britain, because britain is hesitating to remove them. hence there is a need for us to combine forces and demand through all political platforms, through all media, the withdrawal of south african troops and action, definite action, by britain to get those south african troops out.
