Romney would make an excellent SOS.

He will also make an excellent lawn jockey. I prefer the latter.

After what Romney did to Trump, I hope this was all a big tweak on the nose.

Mittens is a dangerous, untrustworthy man, and Trump will rue the day he let that charlatan in the door. Puts me in mind of another charlatan by the name of Al Gore.

Romney would make an excellent SOS.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Please, could you elaborate as to the reasons he would be a good choice for SOS?

That’s the first thing I noticed - Romney’s hair. He colored his hair black (leaving a respectable white streak on each side), I know because I am 60 and also color my hair dark brown (well, my wife does, personally I would color it white like Pence but my wife makes me do the dark brown and I always feel embarrassed the first 3 days after and I have dark stains on the tips of my ears and my pillow stains, too... ) - haha.

Please, God, keep Trump safe from harm.

IMHO Trump’s conciliatory gesture to Mittens indicates God’s not doing a very good job of it.

If Trump makes him sos it’s a hugh mistake. It will make Mitt relevant.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Right, and making any NeverTrumper relevant is a serious misjudgment that will come back to haunt Trump big-time.

I think Trump sees the Bushes as snakes in the grass.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Unfortunately it’s the snakes he apparently does not see that are going to bite him if he’s not careful.

Romney will feel like a low-down dirty dog for the rest of his life.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If he has a active conscience, his disgraceful behavior toward Trump should certainly haunt him for the remainder of his life.

Trump and Pence met others outside, too. Not just Romney.

Former Secretary of State James Blaine would have won in 1884 except for the “rum, Romanism, and rebellion” comment made by one of his supporters shortly before the election...or perhaps except for ballot-stuffing in New York City by the Democrats.
