Mitt Romney showered Donald Trump with uncharacteristic praise on Tuesday night, minutes after polishing off a dinner of frog legs, scallops and lamb chops with the president-elect at the tony Jean-Georges restaurant in Trump International Hotel in New York.

"I had a wonderful evening with President-elect Trump," Romney, who is under consideration to be Trump's secretary of state, told reporters. "We had another discussion about affairs throughout the world and these discussions I've had with him have been enlightening, and interesting, and engaging."

Apparently Romney is willing to grovel for another shot at the international power stage.

What next? Glenn Beck for court jester? Bill Kristol for speechwriter?

It was a bad idea for me to open this thread so soon after lunch.

I've never had foie gras, though I've eaten plenty of frog legs. Yes, they definitely taste just like chicken.

At the risk of being called Pollyanna, the purpose of the cabinet is advisory, plus obedience. So it is possible Trump is selecting those who he feels will help him strictly in those roles, while he ultimately works all the strings. Which would be opposite how things usually work. But then, he was elected to do things opposite how they usually work.

You asked for it, Pollyanna!!!   :tongue2:

I'm waiting for TOS to implode when Trump names Romney his SoS.
