(CNN)President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Montana Republican Rep. Ryan Zinke as his nominee to lead the Interior Department. A transition official said Zinke has accepted the offer.

Zinke, a 55-year-old ex-Navy SEAL commander and recipient of two Bronze Stars for combat missions in Iraq, was a Trump supporter.
He's also faced criticism from environmental and conservation groups since joining the House in 2015.
In the House, Zinke is a member of the Armed Services and Natural Resources committees.

His selection is major political break for Democrats. Zinke was the top Republican prospect to challenge Sen. Jon Tester in 2018, and his removal from the race would substantially improve Democrats' chances of holding the seat in the midterms.

Damn, at this point if there's war Trump won't have to send in the Rangers.


He'll just send in his damn Administrative cabinet and stomp arse.

Not so fast bud. Increasing the democrats chances of retaining the senate seat is not a good long range plan.

With Trump's landslide mandate victory expect coattails in the midterms.

How in the hell is a democrat holding a Senate seat from Montana? Surely they can find someone who can beat a democrat in Montana.

Nothing says he can't serve a year at Interior and then run for Senate.

Good pick.
