Trump spent Thanksgiving asking: Mitt or Rudy?
NY Post ^ | November 26, 2016 | Emily Smith

The talk at Donald Trump’s Thanksgiving dinner at his Florida club was all about if he should pick Mitt Romney or Rudy Giuliani for secretary of state.

The president-elect held court on Thursday at his Palm Beach, Fla., Mar-a-Lago club at a large table with family members including wife Melania and sons Eric and Barron.

One witness told us Trump took a prime table next to the fireplace in the club’s living room, but spent a lot of time greeting members and asking who they think should be his top diplomat.

The spy said, “Donald was walking around asking everybody he could about who should be his secretary of state. There was a lot of criticism about Romney, and a lot of people like Rudy. There are also many people advocating for [former US ambassador to the UN] John Bolton.”

Knowing Trump, it might be neither one of them!

Pick the one who isn’t Romney.
But wait till the Michigan recount is over.

“....There was a lot of criticism about Romney....”

As would be expected. He is weak. NFW.

I was exploring all the hot spot places of the world right now...

Beyond the Middle East...

South Korea is going through some instability which is NOT good if we want to be strong up against the North — China needs to be restrained, Russia is giving off the illusion of being strong but in actuality the people’s patience with the domestic status quo is wearing thin. The globalist forces that be are making Brexit in Britain very difficult, the E.U is filled with low-lives with no real interest in taking a meaningful stand against radical Islam...Castro Just died and even thanks to revisionists here in America we can’t even seem to agree whether he was all out evil or semi-decent

In a word: the world is desperate for real leadership. And America really needs to be strong.

*sigh* I iust dont know if either man fits the bill!

Sounds like a natural leader. Getting as many opinions from wise people as possible.

Then, when he decides against Romney, he can say he gave it thorough consideration.

While I don’t despise Romney the way many FReepers do I still think Rudy would be a better fit, though not necessarily more capable.

Also I think Mitt would be a little more prone to quit the first time he and the President come to loggerheads.

This sounds like he is lost and has no idea what he is doing. More fake news from an anonymous source.

Pray America woke

I understand Donald likes to ask a lot of people their opinions on things for inspiration, etc.

The spy said .........

The spy is likely someone peering into the guests cars as they pull up for dinner. And nothing more.

Mitt Romney should be no where in a Trump administration, he did his best to elect Hillary.

Romney ran to Ted Kennedy’s left in 1994 for Senate.
If your tag line is serious, I don’t understand how you can’t despise Romney.
