President-elect Donald Trump and VP-elect Mike Pence interviewed former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney last week at Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey.
Reports soon came out that the Trump Transition Team was seriously considering Mitt Romney for Secretary of State.
Trump supporters are stunned and outraged with this development.
Former Governor Mike Huckabee, a Trump supporter for several months, said choosing Mitt Romney as Secretary of State would be a “real insult” to all of those who voted for Trump.
Former Speaker Newt Gingrich said, “I can think of twenty of other people better suited for secretary of state other than Romney.”
Here is a list of the several vicious actions and attacks Mitt Romney took to ensure Donald Trump would never be elected president.
** Mitt Romney said it was disqualifying for Trump not to release his tax returns.
Hillary used Mitt’s words in her anti-Trump ad.
Why hasn’t @realDonaldTrump released his tax returns? Looks like he’s out of excuses.https://t.co/6SbJdlPWFD
