Giving him the Romney treatment.
How many times did he meet with Romney about the Sec of State job?
Strike 1: Cruz is pushing him.
Trump is more magnanimous than this never trump clown.
More courtesy than he would ever get from this ilk in return.
Advantages of Lee:
1. Age 47.
2. Relatively easy confirmation.
3. Unlikely to “evolve”, as he has remained strongly conservative throughout his tenure in the Senate.
I think Trump is simply doing his due diligence. He is meeting with many candidates, same as he did before he selected Gorsuch.
After what happened to Sessions’ Senate seat, I don’t think President Trump is going to nominate any more Senators for any positions. Maybe next year if the Republicans pick of several more Senate seats in November.
I think our President will be picking one of the women on his list.
Let’s not forget who this guy Lee is: after Trump had the GOP nomination sewn up he was in charge of a movement on the floor to try & stop Trump from moving forward...for what? So that Hillary could win easily in November.
That picture of him screaming on the floor reminded me of an adolescent. He also went on the internet demanding Trump quit the race after the ‘Hollywood Access Tape” came out. The guy is an unstable idiot.
Lee would not be a bad choice. He is solid on conservative major issues.
So the President surprised us, and a rumor from yesterday was not true. Mike Lee is good on the Second Amendment. Good choice!
I do know that Thomas Lee is on the USSC list, but Mike Lee is NOT; therefore; I do believe the Hill is Fake Newsing this as they don’t know what they are talking about...
Mikey is a Senator from Utah...period.dot.; He’s a crook!!!

Another possibility I’ve found, Noel Francisco, age 48, Solicitor General of the United States.
He clerked for Scalia. His father was from the Philippines.

“The United States Solicitor General is the person appointed to represent the federal government of the United States before the Supreme Court of the United States.”

Never hurts to butter up the senate. Zero chance he’ll get it.
Read about Brett Kavanaugh:
Lee has recently written a book where he outlined that Roe V. Wade was unconstitutional and a travesty towards the Constitution. His views on this are published.
Kabuki theatre (don’t make the Senate mad)
Thomas Hardiman
I get the NeverTrumper part, but if he’s truly a conservative, who cares? Trump will be gone long before him.
