Many politicans on the right, who opposed Trump before the election, are now singing a different tune. For example, Mitt Romney, who ran for president in 2012 has been more than vocal about his disdain for Trump, calling him a “phony” and a “fraud.” However, since Trump won, Romney has contradicted his previous comments by saying Trump might be “the very man that could lead us to a better future.” He even had dinner with Trump back in November.
Now, rumor has it that Trump has interviewed Romney for the position of secretary of state, a position that Rex Tillerson is reported to be a favorite for. So why did Trump interview Romney? Back in 2012 both Trump and Ryan had some interesting and perhaps relevant stances when it comes to foreign policy. And nobody will deny that a former presidential candidate is probably better suited for the job of Secretary of State than somebody who runs an oil company, especially considering the fact that the Middle East, where we are constantly at war is full of oil.
Again, why did Trump interview Romney for the job if Romney opposed him so much?

In business your always looking for the best candidate.
Trump is a better man than that….go Trump
Stop with the conspiracy theories it’s junk like this that gets people upset
I’m glad he dumped the ambassador core. Clean house. Get some new people in. Lots of fixing needed
Let’s remember Trumps campaign manager Paul Manafort and his foreign policy advisor Carter Page both were here and back and forth to Russia during the campaign and after the election. Unprecedented
Don’t get mad get even
Well maybe just maybe he gave Romney a chance. Then discovered there was a better man for the job.
Let’s also remember both were global business men bouncing back and forth to Russia (and other countries) before there was even an election in play. I was in and out of Austria, Hungary and Netherlands the last couple of weeks, do you think that’s because I’m plotting to resurrect communism in Budapest, Naziism in Vienna, and to return Amsterdam to the North Sea? Think objectively and you’ll be played less frequently.
Old news!
I am glad Romney didn’t get the job but I don’t think he was deserving. He may be qualified but he was nothing but a nuisance to Trump from the time the campaign began. What Romney really wanted was a brokered convention and to be nominated from the floor. But he didn’t want to campaign. It was a professional going through the motions for Trump to speak to him I don’t believe he was really ever consideration
