I can see where Trump might give Petraeus the opportunity to rat out Hillary and Obama.

Trump is busy playing the media like a violin. Would not be surprised to see GW Bush visiting him soon just to stir the pot a little more.

Never going to happen,
they are just trying to embarrass Trump, snark at him.
How could he run an entire campaign about Hillary’s misuse of classified material and then hire him. Completely illogical and nonsensical.

After *I* turned him down, he’s now stuck interviewing all of the second-stringers.

I doubt that would happen. IIRC Petraeus is a DEM. Just what we need at SOS....../S

People jump to conclusions. I’d rather think Trump met with Willard to discuss Gen. Petraeus as S.O.S. Try THAT on for size.

I think you’re on to something! It probably will be Courtney Love. It just only makes sense.

About as likely as Willard. Rumor is now out of control.
