Romney is a smart guy.

By all accounts, he is a straight arrow.

Yes, he openly worked very hard to defeat Donald Trump. But if Trump can find a real use for him, why not use him?

Well, I suppose Donald could always use a knife in the back. At the first opportunity, Mitt will probably more than happy to put one there. As far as Mitt goes, a leopard cannot change its spots.

For one, he was trashing Trump until election day.

For two, he was trashing Trump’s policy until election day.

Need I go on?

I’m starting to wonder if the Romney opposition was a ruse to cement Trump’s outsider status, and now Trump is paying him back for playing the part so well. Hmmm...

You must be kidding me. His behavior in this election cycle is despicable and shows no character. When he ran for President he was a wimp and unable to hold his own in debates.
Urban Dictionary
Straight arrow
A person who doesn’t use alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, or other drugs. Can also be used to refer to somebody who doesn’t party, cuss, stay out late, or engage in other risky activities.
That dude is such a straight arrow; all he does is drink water and read the Bible.

What part of that is applicable to being Secretary of State

I hope not as Secretary of State. Please not. There are other positions if he feels the need for whatever reason to include Romney.

SOS is a bad fit. Romney is a capital guy. Give him Treasury. State needs a forceful personality who is on the same page as Trump. Mitt isn’t that.

Obama made Hillary Secretary of State so there is precedent to giving your enemy a job.

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

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

Because he’s a backstabbing weasel.
He was behind the sabotaging of Palin.
He was behind the NeverTrump nonsense.

Because the state department is full of NWO types, and needs to be cleaned out, as they will actively do stuff contrary to what the country needs. Mitt is also a NWO guy, so this particular job is not a good way to use him.

I could live with him being the Head of Veteran’s affairs or something like that. All the globalists need to be ousted from the agencies that deal with anything that might help them bring down the USA.

Are you daft or what? The man HATES Trump! The main reason he should not even be considered is due to a little thing called TRUST. He can’t be TRUSTED!
