President-elect Donald Trump's senior adviser Kellyanne Conway attacked former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, now a contender for secretary of state, warning him, "This is Trump's party now."
"I think that there was the 'Never Trump' movement and then there was Gov. Mitt Romney. He went out of his way to hurt Donald Trump. He gave two speeches that I can recall in this calendar year, and they were both about Donald Trump," Conway said on ABC's "This Week."
Conway did add that she is glad that the former Massachusetts governor and the president-elect are now talking.
Conway has taken to Twitter over the past week to express some of her views on Trump's choice for secretary of state, tweeting a story from Politico about Trump loyalists warning against Romney as secretary of state and saying she was receiving "a deluge" of similar comments.
When asked by ABC's Martha Raddatz if Trump wanted her to tweet about Romney, Conway said, "I won't discuss that."
Conway said, "There's one person that will select his cabinet, and it's President-elect Donald Trump. Whatever he decides will have my full support and respect and he knows that."
She noted that Romney is one contender among others being considered for secretary of state.
"We're all for party unity. I don't think s cost of admission for party unity has to be the secretary of state position," Conway said.
