And in regards to what Romney may,or may not have said in the past...what's past is past.Ditto for what DJT may have said about Romney.
We must all remember that the definition of "diplomacy" is the ability to tell a man to go to hell in such a way as to make him look forward to the trip.
And no...I am not,and never have been,a "never Trumper".
A “wall” isn’t going to work - there are bulldozers and ladders in Mexico.
The biggest problem is the first sentence of Amendment XIV:
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
That needs to be amended out of the Constitution.
Birthright citizenship may have been appropriate 150 years ago, but it creates millions of problems in the 21st Century - US children with illegal foreign parents.
What I suggest is:
The first sentence of Amendment XIV is hereby repealed.
Every child born in the USA after April 30, 2017 shall be born with the citizenship of their mother as of 10 months prior to giving birth.
No foreigner may be granted US citizenship unless the foreigner is over age 22 and has paid United States federal income tax in excess of the value of one ounce of gold on personal US earnings in each of the prior four years.
[That’s to make it impractical/impossible for Democrats to give a scofflaw mom or her newborn US citizenship.]
[Why use mom’s citizenship? Because we don’t want one male US citizen sperm daddy in search of easy money to create hundreds or even thousands of US children with foreign mothers.]
“in regards to what Romney may,or may not have said in the past...what’s past is past”
Romney’s entire political career has consisted of undermining and backstabbing other Republicans.
Romney will not magically turn into someone who is honest and loyal.
Appointing Romney as Secretary of State would be a terrible decision.
Romney is not trustworthy. Mr. Etch-a-sketch would create one international problem after another. Romney has no foreign policy experience.
Romney would also leak to the media.
In addition, the State Department is infiltrated with leftist conspirators who would undermine America. The State Department supported the failed foreign policy in Europe and the middle east.
They supported weakness and appeasement towards China, North Korea and Japan.
The State Department insiders would soon control someone like Romney.
Trump needs someone smart and tough. He needs someone who can deal with the bureaucracy and America’s enemies.
