Did you watch Rommey walking out of that meeting his body language and expressions he just got butt f—k
Romney is a money man...something dealing with the economy
Valid point. I trust Trump picks....just don’t like the idea of a mittens in his cabinet. i do not like mittens....never have. we will find out soon.
Actually, he would. I agree with you.
Romney has no base Conservs hate him, Rats will always field their own. I know, he’s got the inner city vote
Put the great turn around expert in charge of the VA,if he succeeds great, if not fire him like a dog
Mitt would be good.
Where did you see that?
Where did you find video of Romney after the meeting?
Trump:”My pilot, Race Bannon would like to have a word with you”
I read your comment and others on this thread and have, mostly, the same attitude.
But I really want to know....why did Romney go to that meeting? Why did Trump have to meet him in person? If it was just a “mending fences” meeting, why couldn’t they have had an intimate phone call instead of the photo op?
It does not seem, at least to me, that any sort of job offer was made.
I don’t like Romney. He called Trump a fake and a bigot. Romney’s the fake as I see it. He faked being a serious and caring presidential candidate last election. When he is nothing but a political elite posing as something he’s not.
I just wonder who set this all up today.
And why?
I think it may be that a public burying of hatchets was needed. Trump pretends to ask Romney’s opinion of what is needed in some area. Romney is seen being treated cordially. They may hate each others guts but this allows them to work together without friction when necessary. Part of the consolidation of the Republican party behind Trump.
Oh I hope you’re right! I mean he can be something...just not Sec of State!
No, I think it shows Romney that “Trump is a better man than you are, Gunga Din”. So shoot me, I kinda’ like Romney, and I think he has qualities that can help this country in whatever capacity Trump chooses to place him. Romney was totally out of the politics game, and it is magnanimous of Trump to recognize Romney’s capabilities and give him an entre back in to politics. Trump is showing his greatness, here, and we can expect more of the same in the next years. Please, God, keep Trump safe from harm.
If Trump makes him sos it’s a hugh mistake. It will make Mitt relevant.
“Mitt would be good.”
Yeah, it’s time to MAGA and put aside some of the past differences Republicans have had with each other. If the MR that ran the Olympics shows up again there is no reason he cannot be a real asset to the administration.
Extra Brylcream today for Mittster.
Yeah, I’m done complaining about MR. If Trump can be the bigger man, then that’s something I can aspire to.
LOL exactly!
You know that looks good right now. Think I’ll pop it in the DVD player since I’m just cleaning and puttering around the house.
