Romney calling Trump 'phony,' urging Republicans to shun him

[The Deacon]

This is the kind of establishment assault that would have happened to Ron if he'd won early in 08 or 12.

Correct. All the same fear mongering.

He's scaring our allies.
He'll destroy the economy and send us back into recession (lol).
He's heartless.

Exactly.



Coming from Romney, how can a statement like that carry any weight whatsoever?
Trump's nomination handing the Democrat candidate the win is supposition.
Romney's nomination handing the Democrat candidate the win is fact.

Well he also was a rich guy who never actually worked a day in his life. He also was a major flip flopper who would only say things because their effect on polling.

And he lost to a Democrat in the general.

So I'd say he has real world experience on the matter.

Basically what he's saying is; "Trump is as big of a loser as I am."

Trump just got more votes

Romney calling Trump 'phony,' urging Republicans to shun him.

So in other words... "Romney endorses Trump."

He is absolutely correct there. What that arrogant bastard and his equally monosyllabic supporters don't understand is that at least 50% of the record number of voters turning out is being energized against him.

I don't care how badly anybody wants to watch the world burn; nothing good will come out of this debacle.

Good is already coming from this debacle. The GOP is falling apart at the seams, neocons are running around like chickens with their heads cut off. This is awesome... all of these douches that fucked over Ron in 2008 and 2012 are getting their heads handed to them. Good times!

Lindsey Graham is a laughing stock.

John McCain probably will lose his primary vote.

Mitt Flopney is telling us that Trump is a phoney.

Bill Kristol will be voting for Hilary.

FOX News is losing viewers.

So much good has already come out of this... debacle. That is of course not the case if you are a supporter of the corrupt and hypocritical Republican party. In that case a person certainly has something to be upset about.

Personally I think it is great to see these pricks that screwed over Ron in Tampa squirm.

Burn baby burn. I don't like Trump AT ALL, but my hatred for the GOP is greater. Watching it implode is a good consolation prize. Hillary was the chosen one years ago anyway. Don't worry, you will still get your statist either way. This is just part of the WWE Nitro Election and it is quite a show. They put something in the show for us all this time at least. Even as repulsed as I am, I can't stop watching. Coincidence? I don't think so.

Going to be a fun ride.

The guy who not only lost to Obama, but also lost to the guy who then lost to Obama? Yeah, he might know something about handing elections to the democrats, he speaks from actual experience. lol

Perhaps there will be some good coming from Trump. The Republican party will be so thoroughly discredited that they'll have to start from scratch! What happens when your party consists mainly of angry Americans who are in the midst of massive ideological backlash against what they see as unforgivably liberal (gay marriage, egalitarianism, diplomacy, and economic socialism among others)? Of course they're going to latch onto a personality like Trump (and a personality is really all that he is), vicariously living through his unrelenting disrespect for anyone who isn't Trump.

Now, Trump is so naive on politics, particularly foreign policy, that the right people could, perhaps, influence him in a good direction. I don't hold out much hope for that (I admit that I dislike Trump so much my judgement is probably a bit clouded), but it might happen. If it doesn't, then at least the Republican party will simply implode. Everyone has been pointing out that the Republican party has a problem with racial minorities, women, and youth, and a lot of that comes from the fact that people have traditionally associated Republicans with the same callous and self-serving attitudes of Donald Trump, and the GOP has been doing its best to divorce that point of view from their platform. With Trump doing so well, the party is scared to death that their reputation will never recover, and part of me hopes it doesn't. The party, actually both parties, need to start from scratch.

BWAHAHAHA!

This is the establishment answer to Trump? Weekend at Mittens 2016? Funny shit!



The death spiral of the neocons is quite the hilarious drama.

Super Tuesday Funeral: Neoconservatism, An Obituary

Trump sweeps the primaries
by Justin Raimondo, March 02, 2016

March 1, 2016, will go down in history as the day the incubus of neoconservatism was banished from the Republican party – and, in effect, destroyed as a viable political force. It’s the day Donald Trump swept the GOP’s Super Tuesday primary, taking – as of this writing – Georgia, Alabama, Virginia, Massachusetts, Arkansas, Vermont, and Tennessee.

Sort of, but not really. After getting crushed by Hillary (and he will most definitely get crushed) and losing a handful of congressional seats they will be begging people like Mitt to run in 2020, so next cycle the primary field will be 2 Mitts, 3 or 4 Bush clones and Lindsey Graham. The GOP will be set back to the days when they would nominate people like Bob Dole and be happy about it.

Trump is more politically astute than he lets on. Many of his "mistakes" are planned in advance. The press spend more time talking about those than his actual positions, which are well documented throughout the years.

 

[enhanced_deficit]

He's an idiot. Doesn't he realize that by coming out so strongly against Trump he's actually helping Trump?

Two idiots who could not beat even disgraced DGP are doing their best to get Trump elected:

Romney, McCain: Trump a danger for America's future
March 3, 2016 — 4:35pm
SALT LAKE CITY — In an extraordinary display of Republican chaos, the party's most recent presidential nominees, Mitt Romney and John McCain, lambasted current front-runner Donald Trump on Thursday, calling him unfit for office and a danger for the nation and the GOP.

Romney's attack changed my mind; I think I will vote for Trump in the primary. If the establishment GOP is this scared, then something good is happening.
