Kellyanne Conway: Trump Supporters Will Feel ‘Betrayed’ If Romney Is Secretary Of State


As if we haven’t seen enough of President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway publicly made her case against Trump choosing Mitt Romney as Secretary of State.

Dana Bash, a CNN host, talked to Conway about her aversion for Mitt Romney and how she spoke publicly about Trump supporters being against the choice of Romney for Secretary of State. Bash also insinuated that Conway felt the same way. Conway replied by stating:

“You’re not wrong to say that. Because Gov. Romney went out of his way ― I also think it is Donald Trump who has shown he has political instincts. You know, Gov. Romney ran for the same office four years ago and lost spectacularly.”

As if Conway had any right to question someone’s political experience, she went on to say:

“Gov. Romney for the past four years ― has he been around the globe doing something for the United States of which we are unaware? Did he go and intervene in Syria where they are having a massive humanitarian crisis?”

Conway made sure to let everyone know that she did let Trump know privately that she didn’t agree with the decision to make Romney Sec. of State due to the extreme grassroots dislike of the choice.

But none the less, even if Trump makes what they perceive as a wrong choice, they are still hell-bent on standing behind his decisions. Though a strong supporter of anything Trump, Reince Priebus, the Chief of Staff, downplayed the controversy over Romney stating:

“It isn’t a matter of warfare. I mean, there’s a lot of opinions about this. And yes, it is a sort of team of rivals concept if you were to go toward the Gov. Romney concept, but I think that should tell all Americans that Trump is committed to uniting the country in the wake of the fractious election.”

Hopefully, Trump will one day wander off a cliff so that his lemmings will follow right along after him.
