Palin posted the ABC News article saying she was under consideration for the VA position to her Facebook page on Wednesday.

She also shared a post from her son-in-law, Dakota Meyer, a Medal of Honor recipient, that touted her support for the country's troops.

"We should be grateful we'll soon have a commander-in-chief who will champion our vets and honor the promises our nation made," Palin wrote in the post she shared on Facebook.

"A pro-private sector individual who surely understands bigger government is NOT the answer; a President who promised to drain the swamp and clean up all government corruption... all things our vets and active duty troops deserve."

The 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee was a strong supporter of Trump throughout his campaign. She endorsed the billionaire over his GOP rivals in January, ahead of the Iowa caucuses.

Reports surfaced earlier this month that Palin was a possibility to head the Interior Department.

Some lawmakers, however, questioned whether she would be up to speed on policy.
