Romney’s 47% is more like 97% now. Math is important, mittens. So is loyalty.

It’s beginning to look like Romney was never seriously considered and the whole thing was just a “gesture”.

Dana Rohrabacher says he was contacted about the SOS job.

I don't feel betrayed, but I feel it would be a bad choice. Romney has no integrity and should not be considered for any position in a Trump administration. Besides, what qualifications does he have that would make him a good choice. Look at how bad Hillary was.

I wonder if they are setting the stage:

The people clearly want certain things, and Trump intends to listen to the people.
Republicans who have not helped Trump will be passed over.

Message: All Republicans should actively help Trump in the future, because the people expect it, and Trump expects it, and there will be repercussions if Republicans “reach across the aisle” on their own.

Prolly right. I realize Trump is trying to unite the party, but do feel a sense of betrayal that the “consideration” process has gone on for as long as it has. The prolonged process is a slap in the face of Rudy, a loyal supporter from day one. The Mittens drama has gone on far too long and has unfortunately called into question Trump’s loyalty to his own supporters. Time to end this sorry spectacle.

Either she is expressing Trump’s own position or trying to influence it. In either case, I am delighted with her comments.

How does Romney have so much power? He was a one term governor who has been out of office for almost 10 years?

Let’s hope so, it absolutely baffles me why the hell Trump would pick a Democrat operative like Romney. Romney and his boy Paul Ryan need to be kicked the F out of the Republican party, they are frauds, liars and backstabbing punks and you don’t make one SOS of all things. Their whole agenda from day one has been to ensure Democraps stay in power so it stands to reason Romney is going to work against a Trump administration. That election for Obamas 2nd term, I don’t care what anyone says, the Romney/Ryan ticket was a fraud, they were merely token Republicans to give people the illusion they had a choice and right before the election they sabotaged their campaign to ensure Obama won a second term.

Classic “good cop, bad cop”. Kellyanne gets to play “bad” for a change, now Trump can come along later and say, “Gee you know I would have liked to have Mitt on the team to unify the party, but we see that it might have healed one small wound only to create a new much bigger one”. Trump ends up like the Big Man in the deal and Mitt and his followers ought to be able to better accept it and do less damage than if he’d just ignored them.

Trump has locked horns to the biggest of big boys in business. At that level the sophistication is way beyond on mere mortals to comprehend. Even seasoned businessmen in the ranks of multi-millionaires. I think Trump is playing an extremely crafty counter to any possible alliance between Hillary’s camp and the NeverTrumpers. He saw this bogus challenge to the electoral vote weeks before it happened and sought to take the steam out of it. At most, expect Romney to get an Ambassadorship (most likely to France). Think about it, who are some of the people Trump first met with? Romney, Mattis (Kristol’s pick for Never Trump candidate), Tulsi Gabbard (a favorite of Bernie supporters), et al.

Trump is brilliant. Just like he allowed Ted Cruz to speak at the convention and let Trump supporters boo the heck out of him, he’s essentially allowing the same to be done to Romney. No sense having his fingerprints all over, when his supporters are in no mood to punish the man who did his utmost best to get Hillary Clinton elected.

No mater who Trump makes SOS, they’ll be labeled by the media as a Ribbentrop. Its a no win deal with any appointment. If I was Trump I’d create my own media to counter the the rest. Romney? hell No, the opportunist should just go back to his mansion, he’s now old news.

You would have to be insane if you thought by passing over Romney would be being betrayed...

Who would ever in their right minds even consider this POS idiot for anything other that ‘toilet scrubber’!!!

Trump has better sense than this, this was a ‘fake news’ piece, one of just many to come, and remember the news thinks everyone and their dogs that show up on Trump’s doorstep is there for a ‘position’...they cannot believe they are being able to ‘pick his cabinet’ or ‘know who is doing what’...poor slobs!!!

Force him into a public apology. Then tell him to stick it.
