Is Mike Pompeo actively exploring a U.S. Senate race?

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans to meet with Sen. Pat Roberts in the near future amid a heavy recruitment effort by powerful Washington Republicans for Pompeo to run for Roberts’ seat.

A Senate run by Pompeo would reshuffle the race to replace Roberts in Kansas. It would also reshuffle President Donald Trump’s Cabinet — again — and have international implications.

Trump would need to appoint his third secretary of state to replace Pompeo, one of president’s most trusted and loyal lieutenants who has managed to avoid the scandals and upheaval that have pushed out other cabinet secretaries.

It's almost as if he knows he will soon be out of a job.
