Rmoney for SOS

[malaise]

Just saw that on GEM$NBComcast

[drray23]

1. Well its better than guliani or bolton.nt.

[Renew Deal]

2. Makes more sense than some of the other names I've seen

[Generic Brad]

30. He would actually be a good GOP appointee- relatively speaking

Every other name floated has scared the crap out of me. While I disagree with Romney on most things, I do not question his integrity. I really think he wants to do what he thinks is right despite being woefully out of touch. Better him than Bolton or the NY vampire.

[LisaM]

3. It's not the most insane choice ever

And that's about all I can say. He does have lots of relatives in Mexico.

[MANative]

4. In the grand scheme, it's the least bad choice that I've seen floated. n/t

[BeyondGeography]

5. Miles better than Bolton, Giuliani, Nikki Haley, etc.

Basically, under Trump, I don't want to die in a nuclear holocaust. Romney ups the odds considerably over those other choices. He'll be an errand-boy for a child monster all the same, but at least he's an adult.

[Coyotl]

6. Someone who knows how to represent the American Oligarchy and ship jobs overseas.

Yeah, Trump in all about real workers and jobs

[C Moon]

7. I wonder if he would accept it. There seems to be a lot of animosity between the two.

[Jersey Devil]

8. There is no honor among theives or ambitious politicians

They will eat sewer waste if it furthers their careers.

[C Moon]

11. Love it!

[NCTraveler]

9. Best news I have heard from the start of his administration building.

I'm being serious.

[deminks]

10. I thought Mittens hated the Trumpinator.

I can't keep up. Maybe that is what they want.

[malaise]

18. Maybe they fooled all of us

They sure seem united right now

[Mosby]

12. i don't think he would do it.

Way too much work.

[Laurian]

13. If Romney does this, he's a craven hypocrite after the

"Never Trump" stance he took.

[geek tragedy]

15. double-edged sword--what you say is true, but having a sane person running our foreign policy

would be a BFD. It would certainly preserve our standing in the world.

[Lucinda]

14. Least offensive suggestion so far... n/t

[spanone]

16. when it comes down to status and politics, they have no moral compass...none of 'em

[malaise]

17. None whatsoever

[etherealtruth]

19. This is probably the best we can hope for ....

I truly would not have been completely surprised had David Duke been named.

Romney is not unhinged and insane ... I don't agree with the man on many (most issues) ... but he is not a straightup lunatic

[herding cats]

20. That is actually not the worst possible choice.

It's Much better than Bolton or Gulliani.

[Dr Hobbitstein]

21. I feel odd that I take relief in this...

It's like the least bad person on that side I could think of in that position.

[Mr. Ected]

22. Swap him out for Trump

Lesser of 2 evils.

[Laffy Kat]

23. God, you know it's bad when we look at Mittens hopefully.

Just kill me now.

[Cattledog]

24. Tiny hands reality show drama

[malaise]

25. I expect the Con to humiliate him publicly

at some point sooner or later

[madamesilverspurs]

26. Proving only

that Trump is incapable of considering anyone who doesn't have at best an unsavory history when it comes to people of color.


.

[cilla4progress]

27. To

Neutralize him

[VMA131Marine]

28. I have to say

Romney as Secretary of State? Could be a lot worse, as in all the other names that have been floated would be a lot worse. Romney is credible and will look positively brilliant compared to Boris Johnson, for example. I’ll take almost anybody who keeps John Bolton away from the position.

[LisaM]

29. Well, as we all know, Secretary of State is a completely independent position.

Any policy he works on will be all his, and have no connection with the administration, right?

Yes, this is

[Recursion]

31. Wow.... that would almost be tolerable (nt)

[spin]

32. Politics is a dirty game and this election proved how nasty it can be. ...

Trump realized that his only chance to win was to get deep into the mud. Trump did just that and he was in pig heaven.



I often wonder if Trump actually expected to win but now that he has, he is beginning to realize that he needs all the help he can get. If he actually surrounds himself with some good people and listens to their advice he might actually work out to be an acceptable president.

The question is with an ego as big as Trump's can he keep it under control? If not he will definitely turn out to be the worst American president in modern history if not the worst ever.

[Hekate]

33. Better than ANY of the other names that have been floated, and I mean that.

[dumbcat]

34. GEMNBComcast?

What's that? You're still a bit behind.

[mountain grammy]

35. I can't stand the man..

but I can live with this choice.

[CK_John]

36. Trump will have to throw in an Olympics.

[Generic Other]

37. Must be afraid Romney will run against him in 2020

Neutralizing him.
