There is NO whatever reason.

Let him go box Evander again and make a fool out of himself.

He ACTIVELY tried to undermine Trump’s election.

#### him.

Hannity nailed this: It’s the trust issue. Romney will bail and then Backstab.

Also, Trump will need a tough negotiatior in this spot.

Romney may be a wimp as a political candidate and a backstabbing weasel as a politician, but he is an efficient entrepreneur, manager and bureaucrat and could set a lot of things right in the US State Department. He would not embarrass America and would be pretty straight guy with enough money not to be bought- if he and Trump are on the same foreign policy wavelength

Of course if I was Melania Trump I wouldn’t ever even touch the man after that stunt with the nude pictures in the Utah primary

If I were Trump I would not make Romney dog catcher but if Trump feels the need I hope it is not a vital job.

I cannot see rewarding someone so far up in the hierarchy of the GOP elitistsphere, as well someone who did all he could to sabotage the Trump campaign from start to finish by appointing him as Secretary of State when much more loyal, and trustworthy candidates are available. This reeks of Priebus.

I agree with this. Romney would be OK in that capacity.

“Does this fall under “keep your friends close, and your enemies closer”?”

Sure does...which is why I think it would be an ingenious move by Trump. If Bolton is pulling the strings and Romney is the puppet, what a great duo.

NO, Mr. Trump! Do not even give to him a janitor’s job!

We did not elect you so that you could put Romney or Haley in your administration! Don’t do it!

We would all hate you immediately!

Romney is a deal guy and a turnaround guy who has governed a blue state, skills that could be useful in any number of jobs. Outside of state, restructuring and implementing Trumps vision for a first class VA, for example. Let’s wait and see.

To be honest, my personal feelings aren’t relevant. I trust Trump and his team who know a hell of a lot more about it than I do.

I would expect to see someone like Bolton.

Agree 100%. Having Romney as Secretary of State would be an ingenious move. Hope Trump does this.

Don’t believe anything that the media tells you. See what Team Trump says.

What experience does Romney have as a diplomat?

Other than Bolton what experience to any of the other names being bandied about have?

I think the Romney visit is a head-fake. Trump's people think that he needs this to show people how unifying he can be. Once Romney leaves on Sunday I doubt we'll hear of him again.

I wouldn’t hire Romney to clean the latrines in Guantanamo Bay. If he takes any position it will be to lay the groundwork for betraying the Oresident. He cannot be trusted.

Gotcha! Mitt sucks.
I very rarely use that expression.
He is a Globalist.
That is enough.
