President Donald Trump is reported to be ready to appoint Republican Sen. John McCain’s wife Cindy McCain to an “ambassador at large” post.
The position will focus on working against human trafficking, refugees and humanitarian aid, the Daily Beast reported.
Trump apparently “aggressively courted” McCain for the position, according to the report. However, it is not clear if the State Department would create a new office for her.
