Take Penn Jillette for example. After his first appearance on Celebrity Apprentice he trashed the show as fake. He was invited back for a second season and Trump took him to the finals. PJ lost and DJT said to him, live on air, “you never had a chance, you knew that, right?”
Or Mutt Romney. Google the pic of rejected and dejected Romney leaving the White House after not getting the Secretary of State nod.
POTUS has to be politic now so no telling how far out he’s thinking with the “vote your conscience” dirt bag.
I think Trump will take the high road.
