Lincoln, Nixon and Reagan weren't always "friends" with their cabinet members either.

doesn’t Romney see Russia as an enemy?

[doug from upland]

I don’t like it, but Trump makes good decisions. If he chooses Romney, I am going to assume that Trump has decided it is best for the country. And he will have him on a short leash.

[Mouton]

Don’t trust that back stabbing SOB.

[Sacajaweau]

Just love Pence as his vp pick and as an elegant spokesperson.

The difference between the Dems and the Republicans.

The Dems have no one....Obama pretty much ruined all their careers.

[Leep]

My least favorite possible choice so far.

[Bullish]

Romney isn’t fit to wash Trumps car.

Romney would have been perfectly at home in Hillary Clinton's cabinet. This has all the makings of a disaster - an unforced disaster. There is no pressure on Trump to appoint a sworn enemy of his agenda to his cabinet. There is no incentive for Romney to toe Trump's foreign policy line as Secretary of State - he will protect the Foggy Bottom bureaucrats who have defied Republican presidents for years and garner praise from the Washington news media by "standing up to Trump" until Trump is forced to fire him.

I doubt Romney will make it through Trump's first term, and there's no telling how much division and chaos he will cause in US foreign policy before he is canned.

Ugghh...Mr. Establishment

[Afterguard]

No thanks. Mitt might be a useful candidate for overseeing the dismantling of the Federal Reserve, though.

[conservative98]

Better than Corker, better than Regime Change Bolton, better than Rudy who can do other things...

[demkicker]

I like him for Secretary of Veterans Affairs. Romney’s got a good business mind and could tear that place up and rebuild.

[kingu]

Eh, I’m good with Mitt being the sacrificial lamb to go in and fire most of the creatures that lurk in Foggy Bottom. He is well qualified to fire people and downsize.

[Paine in the Neck]

Romney might be ok at State, especially after he’s seen Trump ream and fire Christie in short order. Romney will know he’s not going to go rogue for very long should the impulse overtake him.

[Hattie]

Romney is a great talker for foreign govts. He does care about this country and will be loyal to America and the Trump administration I believe.

Rush always has respect and good things to say about Romney. You can’t fool Rush most of the time.

[EnquiringMind]

What about RUDY?????

[pierrem15]

This simply means that State will be demoted to mainly ceremonial functions.

I suspect DOD will represent the primary institution dealing with foreign powers.

[Bartholomew Roberts]

My thought is that if Romney is “under consideration”, that means he needs to be vetted.

If Trump vets him, he will then know everything about him.

It’s a great way to see what is in Romney’s closet!!!

[HomerBohn]

I wish he wouldn’t!

[Brookhaven]

Mitt’s dad George Romney undermined Barry Goldwater & put Lyndon Johnson in office.

Mitt Romney tried to undermine Trump and put Hillary in office.

I see no reason to trust Mitt Romney at all. He has proven to be shortsighted and untrustworthy. Traits that seem to run in the family.

I think this post needs a “Barf” Alert.
