Trump nominates Lee Greenwood's wife to be ambassador
President Donald Trump has nominated the wife of “God Bless the USA” singer Lee Greenwood to serve as the U.S. ambassador to Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean. Kimberly Greenwood was among a list of nominees the Trump administration sent Monday to the U.S. Senate for confirmation. Later, Kimberly Greenwood posted on Instagram a picture with her husband and Trump as she thanked the president for the nomination.
Lee Greenwood is one of Trump’s favorite singers, whose signature patriotic anthem has been his chosen walk-on song at political events for years. Trump even went into business with Lee Greenwood, selling a $59.99 “God Bless the USA Bible” with him.
