Axios: “Ben Carson, the secretary of Housing and Urban Development, has told confidants he wants to start a think tank after President Trump leaves office next month. Carson’s planning signals his private recognition of what many Trump loyalists won’t say publicly: Donald Trump will not serve a second term – at least not consecutively. The secretary has not publicly acknowledged Joe Biden’s election win but is preparing for a future outside the federal government. Carson, a neurosurgeon by trade who competed with Trump for the Republican Party’s 2016 presidential nomination, wants to start an organization that will promote Trump’s policies and foster bipartisan dialogue, a source in his inner circle told Axios.”
