Trump names budget director

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – President-elect Donald Trump, in the latest stop of his victory lap, told a military veteran-laden crowd in Florida that while he would build up the country’s armed forces, he would use them sparingly as commander-in-chief.

“For too long, we’ve moving from one reckless intervention to another, to countries you’ve never heard of before,” Trump said at a rally Friday night in Orlando. “It’s crazy and it’s going to stop.”

Trump still vowed to defeat the Islamic State group, offering no details but promising a foreign policy strategy that “means crushing ISIS rapidly.”

On Saturday, Trump will make the final stop on his “thank you” tour at a football stadium in Mobile, Alabama, revisiting the site of the largest rally of his campaign.

Then he will return to Mar-a-Lago, his palatial Palm Beach estate. Aides said the president-elect would likely spend all of Christmas week there, taking meetings and relaxing with his family, and could stay at the coastal resort until New Year’s.
