El Trumpo continues to surprise with his meetings by announcing that he’ll be talking to former presidential competitor Carly Fiorina.
From the Washington Post:
President-elect Trump is set to meet with two of his formal primary rivals Monday at Trump Tower as he continues to fill out his Cabinet.
Carly Fiorina and Rick Santorum will travel to Manhattan to meet Trump early next week, transition officials told reporters on a conference call Friday.
Trump will also meet Rep. Raul Labrador and Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin on Monday.
Both Manchin and Labrador had been slated to see the president-elect this week, but their appointments were pushed to next week as Trump travels the country for a number of rallies and presidential-style events.
Carly and Trump really got into it during the presidential run and he was especially nasty to her by mocking her looks. She, in turn, was a part of the last gasp of defiance from Ted Cruz when she joined his campaign right before losing Indiana and dropping out. It’ll be really interesting to see if anything comes from that meeting, or if it’s just another head fake from Trump to garner more spotlight attention.
Maybe he’ll remind her of this moment, one of her finest, from the debates:
Dang.
