PatriotRetort: Just spit-balling here. But if Mitt Romney really believes Donald Trump is the worst thing to happen to our Republic since King George III, why is he so desperate to become his Secretary of State?
Romney went on a one-man mission last spring to destroy Donald Trump’s chances in the primaries.
Not that anybody noticed or cared.
In fact, Romney showed more chutzpa in taking on Trump than he ever did in 2012 against Obama.
If he displayed half that determination when he ran against Obama, he’d be President Romney right now.
Good old Mitt is proving to be just as much of an opportunist as every other member of the Republican political class.
All those supposed “principles” that prevented him from supporting the Republican nominee are worth about as much as air in a jug.
Just how much of a “fraud,” “con man” and “phony” can Donald Trump be if Romney is willing to forget calling him a “fraud,” “con man” and “phony” in order to get a position in his Administration?
Sounds to me like Mitt Romney is the fraud and phony.
There is an up-side to Romney begging Donald Trump to be Secretary of State… MORE
I paid no attention to the details of Romney’s attacks on Trump before the election but now that I’ve seen the details I can’t believe Trump is seriously considering him for anything. I hope Trump is doing this as a head fake and will use it to continue dismantling the GOPe. I’m trying not to take anything seriously until whatever is decided is announced from Trump himself.

printhiple is the proper form for romney
The only favorable point for Romney as SOS is that he would be better (or at least not worse) than Hillary. But he’s in the same league as Swift boat Kerry.
He doesn’t deserve consideration for ANY position within the Trump Administration.
Mittens reminds me of the Groucho Marx quote ~ “Those are my principles. And if you don’t like ’em … well, I have others”
Hell, tell the guy to eat a dead crow live on television.
Something tells me, Romney would show up wearing a lobster bib clutching a knife and fork.
Hahahaha! I can see it!
If Trump were to select Romney for SoS, then let’s all remember that Trump could also select Romney for “you’re fired” if he doesn’t toe the line.
If he gets to do anything in the Trump Administration, you can bet that it will be under an extremely short leash. The Donald is no idiot, if he’s going to use Romney, then he’s going to USE Romney. Just look at the way he’s been bitch slapping the media and and just about anyone else who has incurred his wrath. Trump understands the saying about vengeance being best when served cold.
… & Gingrich is correct … Romney ran for president just 4 years ago … whose policy will he serve as Trump’s SOS? Trump’s, or his own?
btw, he total stunk up the place when he went on his ‘foreign policy’ tour of Europe & the Middle East while campaigning in ’12 … look it up (it was mentioned on Lou Dobbs the other night)
Gubmint be just like da ‘Lympics!
International Man o’ Mormon!
Romney is a vicious bastard who directs and then hides behind his sycophants. Part of me would like him on Team Trump, but only a small part of me. He is also a scheming opportunist and a double crosser who is always looking for an opening.
Trust the bastard at great risk. He is the exact opposite of the image he has cultivated.
I recognized the personality type in grade school and they didn’t have anything to offer me, I have never been one to follow a cult of personality.
What I caution against is being outside his cabal and placing trust in him.
It is alluring, he offers adding his followers to “the cause,” but what they are NOT there in any support position. They are there because they are looking to exploit that position to take over and absorb as many as possible into following Romney.
He is especially dangerous. Just say: Romney came in a close second and leave it at that. He is extremely dangerous because his well rehearsed and polished treachery is hidden behind the veil of charisma.
Mitt the Ken doll is just for show. Trump won’t let him have any real power as Secretary of State. The real negotiations will be done by Trump. Mitt, a shallow jerk will happy to smile for cameras, give diplomat handshakes and clueless pompous speeches. It will keep him out of the way so Trump can get down to business.
I prefer to believe that Trump told romney what was going to happen to him if he Didnt write a public apology.
I hope Trump is just egging Romney along, pretending he’s under consideration for SOS.
Hey Mitt. You want to be SoS? You’re a really attractive candidate. Yeah – you got what it takes. You’re bright. You’re handsome. You know people, places and things. Yeah, yeah. We can go places together.
Then BAM. Trump gives Romney the middle finger. “Fuck you, you mother fucker. Payback’s a bitch, ain’t it? You look like a fool, groveling like that.”
I can hope, can’t I?
I am amazed at how long Trump can lead Mitt on…Even I get bored after awhile when playing the cat with that stick and the feather.
Mitt is and always has been a swamp gator swimming with the rest of the elite, in the mire of the DC swamp. PULL THAT DAMN PLUG, Presidrnt Trump. 🐊🐊🐊🐊
