Mitt Romney Concludes Meeting With Trump, Had A “Far Reaching Conversation”

In a brief, 30 second statement to the press issued moments after Mitt Romney finished his meeting with Donald Trump, the former presidential candidate (who previous had accused Trump of being a “con man,” a “phony” and “a fraud”) and who is allegedly in consideration for Secretary of State, said that he had a “far-reaching conversation with regards to the various theaters in the world where there are interests of the United States of real significance. We discussed those areas and exchanged our views on those topics: a very thorough and in-depth discussion in the time we had, and appreciate the chance to speak with the President-elect and look forward to the coming administration.”
As expected, this was the canned statement one would expect from a person tasked with perpetuating the status quo around the globe, and the US role in it, which may or may not be what Trump has in mind for the future US role in global affairs.
As Romney approached reporters, Trump remained near the front door of the clubhouse, cupping his hands around his mouth and calling out, “It went great” according to The Hill. The former Massachusetts governor didn’t take questions and ignored the ones shouted at him after making his statement, which lasted about 30 seconds.
