Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is meeting with Donald Trump this weekend to discuss "governing and [a] possible Cabinet post," CNN reports.
This would be a curious partnership, as Romney, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee, has been an outspoken critic of Trump's, calling him a "phony" and a "fraud" as well as publicly saying he would rather write in his wife than vote for Trump. Romney even delivered a full speech against Trump in March aimed at stopping Trump's then-snowballing momentum in the Republican primary.
