Romney Says Hillary Encouraged Him to Seek SOS Job [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 11 June 2017 | John Semmens

Former Republican presidential candidate and Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney says former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "encouraged me to actively seek her old job. 'Don't let your differences with Trump scare you off,' she told me. 'I had differences with Obama, but I put those aside to take the job.'"

"She was very sympathetic to the fact that I had spent tens of millions of dollars of my own money running against Obama for the presidency," Romney recalled her saying. "'You can get that back and more just like I did. When you're Secretary of State you have say-so over a lot of things businesses and foreign governments want. You could just make decisions based on merit, but you could also ask for some kind of payback. I'm not saying you should do something you wouldn't otherwise do, but why do it for free?'"

"Unfortunately, President Trump went in another direction," Romney lamented. "Now, we'll never know what great things I might have been able to accomplish."

There are a lot of out here that think that Mitt should get a job. There are a lot of ideas who should be in jail.

“She was very sympathetic to the fact that I had spent tens of millions of dollars of my own money running against Obama for the presidency...”

Now we finally understand how Bonnie and Clydette justify their looting of the Treasury. Public service requires sacrificing one’s income and potential income in the private sector. Makes sense to a lot of our public servants, it seems.
