I think he’s just screwing around with Romney for those past remarks...
Washington Post at it again...how do they know that Romney is being considered for anything but ‘pooper scooper’??? Last I heard and seen, there are no media in the ‘room’ where things are taking place, unless Kelly Anne has her mouth going again...
When Trump comes out and says: “So and So will be my Sect. of State’ then I don’t believe anything...
Isn’t Petraeus the one that divulged classified information to his girlfriend or am I thinking of someone else?
Oh, it’s a battle now. I love their choice of words in connection with the president-elect.
Mr. Trump was THE ONLY choice; so, too General Mattis IS THE ONLY CHOICE Now! !!!!!!!!!!!
******
Semper General Mattis/President TRUMP !!!!!!!!!!
Semper AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!

RUDY! RUDY! RUDY! RUDY!
We need a pitbull in this position, not a pussycat.
Petraeus should NOT be in the mix for SoS either.
I hope Trump doesn’t pick Petraeus. After all the criticism of Hillary and her disregard for national security, it would be outrageous for him to pick someone who shared top secret information with his mistress.
I think Trump is just messing with Romney.
That being said, we have to be able to do better than Romney or Petreaus.
Serious question: Why is the SoS position never filled by a person who has been a long-term employee of the State Dept’s Diplomatic Corps?
I’m hoping Romney and Petraeus are smokescreens and that Trump is about to nominate a SoS that will astound and surprise us all.
More fake news.
Romney and Petraeus will be consultants....what Obama calls Czars...and will not need Congressional Approval.
Romney is the embodiment of the establishment we voted to get rid of and that Trump ran against.
Pence was a great choice for VP. Trump obviously has a great deal of respect for his opinions, and will make a choice that is in the best interest of the country - whatever the ramifications are with his supporters. Trump recognizes he has a big job and many qualified people who can serve the country, and if he decides to go with Romney (while Romney would need to apologize and recognize that whatever Trump’s history - he is clearly working to build a world-class team that will implement Trump’s policies (and make clear he will support those policies).
Time to move forward - whether Romney, Giuliani, Petraeus, or whoever. Objective is to get moving and put the election behind us. If someone is unfaithful to the President - Trump can always fire him/her.
Petraeus shouldn’t even be eligible. He is no longer able to hold a Security Clearance because of his conviction. He cannot function effectively as SecState without a clearance.
John Bolton for S.of S. comes to mind......
If he can’t find someone suitable, just leave it blank.
“So Pence is the only name I have seen associated with supporting Romney: anyone else?”
From the article:
“Others inside Trumps orbit, particularly Vice President-elect Mike Pence, are viewed as Romney supporters”
I don’t see anything saying that Pence supports Romney. All it says is that Pence and others “are viewed” as Romney supporters.
Who in the world views Pence as a Romney supporter? I have not heard a single person say that.
The Washington Post is making things up again.
