McMaster (the Guv) is a big time neo-con.

I’m sure he’ll appoint someone similar to Graham for the time being. His Lt governor lost in the GOP primary not long ago, maybe she gets the appointment or someone like Nikki Haley. Certainly the appointment will not be someone who is in complete lockstep with Trump. Graham talked a big game but when it came to the populist issues he was one of the biggest roadblocks to the alleged Trump agenda.
