I'm starting to think this is going to happen. It would probably calm a lot of nervous people down - both here at home and internationally.

I'm not sure if it's the right move or not. I guess it depends on how "on board" Romney really is. Interesting times....

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Don’t like it. Why would Trump reward someone who not only savaged him but did every thing he could to derail his campaign, including run that idiot Egg McMuffin against him to try to steal EVs?

Makes no sense.

[Savage Beast]

Well, Romney has proven that he can turn on a dime. Also that you can't rely on what he says.

Trump has proven that he's a better man than Romney.

I'm sure Trump knows what he's doing...

[Helicondelta]

[ChessExpert]

That is a lot of food.

[Jrabbit]

Trump is just a politician after all......what a shame

[DoodleDawg]

A wise man once said that the back you stab today is only a foot or so above the butt you may have to kiss tomorrow. Romney wants to be Secretary of State so bad that he can’t pucker up and smooch hard enough. I so hope that when the dust settles he’s winds up disappointed.

[New Jersey Realist]

Makes no sense to me but we must realize however that Trump was the most hurt by Romney’s personal attacks. If he has the heart to forgive, then.....

[Morpheus2009]

Does the secretary of state control the president? Can Trump keep a critical view on whatever the SOS offers? I believe it is worth asking this question to oneself. It doesn’t matter how much of a friend or foe a cabinet member is. If the POTUS can’t keep a critical mindset on his cabinet members, then we are pretty screwed.

[AppyPappy]

Why is Romney a good choice for a foreign policy job?

[HarleyD]

"Frog Legs"!!!!! I can just see the lead story at the HuffPo-

How insensitive Trump and Romney are!!! Think about all those handicapped frogs with no legs who won't find work....

[rejoicing]

While the other guests ate frog legs, steak, and lamb chops, Mr. Romney ate a very generous portion of crow. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[HarleyD]

BTW-Trump isn’t in office yet and he’s already has kept Ford and Carrier from moving to Mexico. Obamacare is first up and hints of repealing Obama’s EO and treaties are in the wind. He won an election against all odds with everyone (including many on this site) against him.

Trump seems to know what he’s doing and I’d cut him some slack.

We get upset over the way Romney went after Trump. But, I think what a lot of us don't get, is for high-end business people like Trump and Romney, none of this stuff is personal. It's "Art of Deal" thinking, two businessmen can go at it, call each other every name in the book, sue, countersue and try their best to destroy each other and then a week later go off to the golf course and become partners in some new business venture because it's in their best interests. That's why I laugh every time I hear someone talk about Trump being "thin skinned", they don't get it, to get where Trump has gotten in business you can't be thin skinned, it's all an act. Trump doesn't care, he's just playing the audience

Romney tried everything in his power to destroy Trump because Trump was engaging in a hostile takeover of his "company" (in this case the Republican Party establishment). Romney failed. Romney knows he failed. Trump knows Romney failed. That's enough, no need to hold a grudge from either party, just cut the best deal you can like nothing ever happened.

[Maceman]

Romney has spoken well of Trump before -- like in 2012 when he got Trump's endorsement for his doomed presidential campaign.

Romney thanks Trump for endorsement.

Romney is a miserable, lying sleazebag who will say anything at all that serves his interests at the time.

As the above video show, he doesn't have an ounce of integrity.

[Tamatoa]

If it does happen, imagine Romney praising Trump and defending him for 4 years? He will be a yes man for 4 years. The best revenge ever.

By the way, Romney does have business experience and know how to put great deals together. Trump is looking at who can manage and get things done. As much as I don’t like Romney for what he did to Trump, I will accept what Trump does knowing he believe the people he picks will advance his vision for the country.

Plus Trump can always say “You are fire”

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Mittens had a healthy serving and seconds of crow.

[DOC44]

POS

[Mase]

I'm not sure if it's the right move or not

I'm certain it's the absolute wrong move given Mitt's liberal bent along with the fact that he did everything he could do to elect the most criminal presidential candidate in more than 100 years.

Trump is a fool if he allows this person anywhere near the the power poles of his administration.

[Be Careful]

I can’t make heads or tails of this situation.

It could be Trumps biggest troll to take down Romney

or it could be a way to unite the party which has merit

additionally it could be a way to hold the reins in on little Paul Ryan to basically neuter Ryan and keep him under Trumps thumb

Ryan is a little boy that can’t do anything without Romney

[Georgia Girl 2]

I have been saying this is a Trump headfake. Romney is so wrong for this job I can’t believe he would give it to him. I hope I’m right.
