What comes next for Sanders after working for Trump?

You probably know that former White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders is joining Fox News as a contributor.

It will keep her in the public eye while she considers running for governor of Arkansas, her home state.

She will make her debut Friday morning, Sept. 6, on “Fox & Friends.”

Sanders isn’t the only highprofile individual to go from President Donald Trump’s administration to Fox. Another is Hope Hicks, who grew up in Greenwich. She was Trump’s communications director and is now chief communications officer at Fox Corp.

You probably also know that Sean Spicer, who preceded Sanders as White House press secretary, will be a contestant on ABC’s “Dancing With The Stars” in the fall.

These two developments got me thinking about what others could do after working for President Trump.

What if Fox has no openings, not even for a former member of the Trump team? What if other television outlets don’t want to be criticized for taking on board a political partisan, as ABC was?

Maybe Trump administration veterans could do something they once did.

Take Vice President Mike Pence. He was a talkshow host at radio and television stations in Indiana. He called himself “Rush Limbaugh on decaf” — politically conservative but not bombastic.

He could do that again — this time for a national audience.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was an investment banker who founded a side business that financed movies. How about a new epic, “Trump v. Wonder Woman?”

Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson was a prominent neurosurgeon and motivational speaker.

In his speech at the 2013 National Prayer Breakfast, he criticized the liberal policies of President Barack Obama, who was sitting 10 feet away.

I’m sure conservative groups would pay Carson a handsome fee to speak to them.

Energy Secretary Rick Perry is remembered for his stumble in a Republican debate before the 2012 presidential election. He couldn’t remember the third of three agencies he would eliminate. “Oops!” he said. (It was the Department of Energy.)

As a young gogetter, Perry sold books doortodoor.

After serving in the Air Force, he went into business with his father farming cotton.

So Perry could do one of two things — sell books doortodoor or — uh. What is the second thing? Oops!

Let’s consider Ivanka Trump, adviser to the president and, by the way, his daughter.

As a teenager, she got into modeling. Later, she had her own business selling clothing and accessories. She could do either again.

We don’t want to forget President Trump. What could he do after he leaves the White House? (That’s assuming he leaves the White House.) He could return as the star of TV’s “The Apprentice.”

I can see him pointing to a contestant who is insufficiently loyal to him and snapping, “You’re fired!”
