Former House Speaker and Trump transition team vice chair Newt Gingrich, no fan of Mitt Romney, said he would nonetheless support the former Massachusetts governor as secretary of state under one condition — if the president-elect nominates him to that position.

“I’m very comfortable, if given the amount of time he’s given to this, if President-elect Trump says ‘I want Romney’ then I’m for Romney,” he told CBS News host John Dickerson on “Face the Nation” Sunday.

He reiterated, “If he concludes Romney can do the job best, them I’m for Romney.”

That is a far cry, from his opinion that Romney should be Trump’s last choice for secretary of state a mere two weeks ago.
