I read that while Romney's still on the short list for State, Trump is wanting to expand the list. Apparently he doesn't like who's on it right now.

I hope he shows better decision making skills than he displayed in whether to take the job, or not...

I absolutely don't get Carson for HUD.. except that he's black. Why not Health & Human Services? Much less Surgeon General.

They'll start calling him Uncle Ben and say he isn't black anymore because his high level of education culturally bleached him.

I think Trump is just toying with Romney,...making him show up with his hat in his hand over and over. It's how Trump is demonstrating to the people how little dignity Romney has.

It is because he is one of the smartest people on the planet in analyzing solutions for near impossible problems. Turning the tide on the inner city problems is about as difficult as one could imagine. I would rather put one of our best and brightest in charge of those problems. Dr. Carson fills the bill for me.

It's easy to fix the inner city problems, the issue is no one in government can stomach the solution.

Hmm... 1) put one of the smartest people in charge of something he's totally unfamiliar with and see how good of a job he can do on something that wasn't a major campaign issue? 2) put him in charge of Health & Human Services and the FDA with an upcoming repeal of ObamaCare and let him see what he can do to streamline drug approvals, reduce ridiculous red tape and wipe out thousands of pages of bad regulations, and preside over Medicare/Medicaid? All of which he's intimately familiar with and it was a top camplaign issue.

And this is coming from someone that thought Trump didn't have a shot. This is going to be your default answer for the next 4 years every time you can't provide a real answer? Just answer how "Only going to get the best people" equates to putting one of the brightest minds on the planet (according to you) in charge of something he doesn't know rather than in charge of something he's an expert in AND is a top priority? Is there somebody BETTER at Health & Human Services that Trump is going to get? Is Carson's opinions on the pyramids being built to store grain maybe something that he'll use to drastically fix inner city housing problem? Maybe he can use to that turn inner city projects into grain silos? I mean, I can't keep up with the thoughts that a brightest mind on the planet has...

I think Trump is just toying with Romney,...making him show up with his hat in his hand over and over. It's how Trump is demonstrating to the people how little dignity Romney has. That's what I figured from the moment he asked Romney. It's hilarious watching Romney grovel for a job from a man he besmirched from the beginning. Typical slimeball politician.
