Over the Thanksgiving weekend, Kellyanne Conway — Trump’s campaign manager — heavily criticized the idea that Romney would be selected to head Trump’s State Department, yet has received heavy backlash for her remarks.
“Kellyanne doesn’t have a job yet,” MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough stated Monday morning. “She’s angry about that. She hasn’t been offered the job she wants. She is. I can report that, and so she’s striking out.”

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is still being floated as a dark horse candidate for the position.
Trump is expected to make his selection this week, and Spicer told reporters Monday that the transition search is progressing “ahead of schedule.”
