You know, when Trump started to look for a VP, one of the people that screened the possible candidates was his son Donald Jr., and here is a direct quote of what he asked Kasich........
Donald Jr. wanted to make him an offer nonetheless: Did he have any interest in being the most powerful vice president in history?
When Kasich’s adviser asked how this would be the case, Donald Jr. explained that his father’s vice president would be in charge of domestic and foreign policy.
Then what, the adviser asked, would Trump be in charge of?
“Making America great again” was the casual reply.

And now, it seems that he's not really interested in knowing what he might have to deal with because he's only had 2 security briefings, where Pence has been getting them almost daily.

Me personally? I think Trump is more in love with the idea of being president than actually doing the job of president. Looks like Pence is gonna be in charge of policy while Trump runs around the country, making America great again.
I never thought Donald Trump wanted to be POTUS, and his win probably shocked him more than it did the nation. There's just too much history of what he used to be, as to what he has portrayed himself as today, a Republican, which he's not. He's for single payer health care, he's for a pathway to citizenship. He praised Obama's 878 billion dollar economic stimulus bill, the list goes on and on. Then within 3 years he against all of it?

I think he came out of the gate to get the attention, he loves the media lime light, he's a narcissist and needs that kind of attention
.Trump did everything he could possibly do to LOSE this election. He chased off more voting blocks than you could shake a stick at. He offended, insulted, & threatened his way all the way to the White House. He played upon American anger & ignorance, and he was successful. But the reality is, he is one fantastic actor, and I think soon, his supporters are going to realize that
they've been roped a doped.
I believe Trump asked Kasich if he would take over domestic and foreign affairs also. This also could be one of the reasons for his interest in meeting with Mitt Romney of late.
Romney is well liked and admired by most house and Senate Republicans, and by moderate Republicans which are the majority of the party--and he would actually have the experience and knowledge to handle foreign and domestic affairs.
We'll see, but I really can't think of another reason that he is talking to Romney at this point in time other than that. I don't think Romney is jumping out of his shoes, just to become Secretary of State either.
