$6 million goes a long ways these days.

For those who thought Donald Trump had "No Chance in Hell" of becoming President of the United States, not only has it happened, but another former wrestling personality may also be involved in his administration.

NBC Connecticut has revealed that Linda is being considered as his Secretary of Commerce. An official offer has not been made yet, but her spokesman said she would be "honored to serve if Trump asks her."

This seems to be one of the most expensive cabinet positions in the history of politics, as Linda reportedly gave Trump's campaign over $6 million a few months ago. She also spent $97 million of the McMahon Family fortune trying to become a Senator in two prior runs.

Linda no longer has much to do with WWE, as she resigned as CEO of the company in 2009. She hasn't appeared on Raw or SmackDown in years, and isn't even mentioned on either show.

It looks like a prominent political role like this is something she's been looking to land for years. The lesson is: never give up on your dreams, especially if you have over $100 million to keep chasing them.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
