First on CNN: Donald Trump, Mitt Romney to meet this weekend

New York (CNN)President-elect Donald Trump will meet this weekend with one of his fiercest critics: 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney, a senior Republican source told CNN on Thursday.
The two men are set to meet this weekend to discuss "governing moving forward" and potentially a role for Romney in Trump's Cabinet, the source said.

The source declined to specify for which Cabinet positions Romney is under consideration.
The meeting is the latest in a series of Trump's conversations and encounters with Republicans who did not support his candidacy in an effort to reunite the GOP following a divisive election that fractured party leaders past the Republican primary and into the general election.

for Romney than I should have. Or maybe Trump just wants to borrow Romney's "binders full of women". He needs some new women to grope now that he's not hanging out a beauty pageants.

Oh, and fuck Romney.

Than bolton or Guliani. While I dont agree with Romney's positions I think he is sane. Especially compared to Guliani or the other nutcases.
