Just think what a leader he would be if he invited Hilary to be Sec. of State. She could hit the ground running. She even already has an apparatus set up to take in the bribes.

I’m sorry, Romney could have cost us the election with his B.S.

SCREW ROMNEY!

No, that wouldn't have happened. It didn't happen because Romney has no political credibility.

The media knows nothing. Every person that goes to Trump Tower they say is going for Secretary of State. Obviously they are very concerned about that cabinet position and will trash whomever Trump selects.

Media Losers.

Trump may be putting Romney at State in the same manner that Michael Corleone put Carlo in charge of the Las Vegas operation in The Godfather.

Finally, someone here gets it AND has the perfect language to state it!

Calm down folks, CEO types don’t play footsie without reason.

Trump has never been that stupid. Make Romney ambassador to Salt Lake City then forget him!

Romney could be Secretary in charge of dismantling Obamacare, since he is the father of O’care, and thus is best qualified to get rid of it.

This actually makes sense to me on a number of levels.

He cleans up well, likes to travel, and is liked by eurotrash and other foreign scum.

Trump’s genius is on display again.

Do not miss it.

Do not misunderstand it.

Notice he also “interviewed” Ted Cruz, didn’t you?

What Trump is doing is schmoozing and mending fences with former adversaries who would be better off as his allies.

He won’t offer them the positions, but he - though the winner - has extended a magnanimous olive branch to them, which they are now - by simple human nature - likely to accept.

Trump is laying the field for his coming “Spring Offensive” by putting out brushfires and turning neutrals - and former adversaries - into allies.

As Rush says: “DO NOT DOUBT ME ON THIS.”

THAT folks, is what is REALLY going on here.

That - is “the rest of the story”....

Methinks the conversation will include the results of the election .... compared with Mitt’s. :-)

They can talk about the SOS spot .... but that doesn’t mean Trump has any inclination to offer it to him. :^D
