Trump saved us from this.I can’t think of a better way to keep Paul Ryan in line. If Ryan tries to pull some crappola, his best bud Romney would lose his position. And vice versa.
HOW ABOUT AMBASSADOR TO BENGHAZI.
but Romney and Ryan could be such great ambassadors to Kenya.
Wouldn’t that be a #betterway?
Trump has never been that stupid. Make Romney ambassador to Salt Lake City then forget him!
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.
Keep your enemies further than at arms' length, sir!
Trump saved us from this.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”....
WTF?
Seriously, WTF?
I voted for Romney over Obama. If Trump wants to keep his friends close and his enemies closer, I don’t have a problem with Trump giving Romney a position in the administration.
But why Secretary of State? Simply because he can’t possibly frak up more than Hillary and Kerry did? Why not Secretary of Commerce, or Secretary of Transportation, or US Ambassador to Micronesia, or some other position that he might actually be qualified for and less likely to do any real damage?
He is won’t take direction.
I think it’s a brilliant move. What’s the old saying about keeping one’s friends close and your enemies closer! Whether we like it or not Romney “cleans up nice”, and it’s awfully difficult to continue trashing someone when you’ve got a key role in their administration. He’ll probably do quite well.
Gee! If I get to see elect president Trump. Will CNN say that I AM looking for a Cabinet Position. All the news out lets are reporting that any meeting with Trump is for a position. Keep them guessing.

“.....source close to the president-elect with direct knowledge of his thinking....”
I am sick of this bulls!t.
Advisor to Trump: "Sir, Mr. Romney is here per your request"
Trump to Romney: "Thanks for stopping by. I just wanted to tell you to your face... you're an idiot. Have a nice day"
My guess is it ain’t going to happen, on the basis of Romney being the one to start the red-baiting back in 2012 - ironically, getting famously slapped down in a debate for that tactic by Obama of all people.
Consider the source...No one knows but Trump.
