Roger Stone, a longtime adviser to Donald Trump, says the president-elect interviewed Mitt Romney for the secretary of State position just to "torture him" for his former criticism.
Romney, who as much as I've opposed him politically, is still a decent man. He can't seem to understand that Trump was fucking with him, just to humiliate him in front of the world.
Romney confidants say they still believe Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence were genuinely vetting Romney for the job, with phone calls, a meeting at Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, N.J., and a sumptuous two-hour dinner at Jean Georges in Manhattan, complete with frog legs and diver scallops.
The one thing that nobody, other than those in his family, will ever say about Trump at his memorial service was that "he was a decent human being".
Good! F-ing Romney. Sure as hell didn't vote for THAT guy.
ReplyDeleteSo, NJT, you're celebrating tRump being a petty, vindictive bully? Not sure how else to interpret that.
ReplyDeleteI keep trying not to laugh at these Republicans (and right wing pundits) who are just so aghast at the fact that Republicans are behaving like Republicans TO THEM now.

It's just a message.
ReplyDeleteI think this demonstrates this that Romney, who (justifiably) called Trump "a phony" and "a fraud" prior to the election and then squirmed and sucked up to him for a job after the election has the principles and the spine of a jellyfish. I don't at all like Trump, but if Trump sucker punched Romney, good for him!
