Dina Powell ^ was at the top of the short list of candidates to fill the 'glamorous' UN Ambassador role when Nikki Haley departs at the end of the year.
President Trump confirmed on Wednesday that Powell was a definite possibility, that she'd done a great job in her short stint as Deputy National Security Advisor, and that she'd love to return to the administration.
Yesterday, Powell said, 'thank you, but no thank you' to returning to the Trump administration. She's staying at her executive position with Goldman Sachs.
