“Receiving deluge of social media & private comms re: Romney,” Conway said, linking to a story about Trump loyalists who are unhappy with the possibility.

She also stressed loyalty as a key trait for a secretary of State in a follow-up tweet.
Kissinger & Schultz as Secs of State flew around the world less, counseled POTUS close to home more. And were loyal. Good checklist.

While Conway didn’t indicate if the feedback was positive or negative, some Trump supporters and allies have tried to steer the President-elect from nominating Romney as the U.S.’s chief diplomat.
