Hillary should send a thank you note to Mitt. This quote is a ready made attack ad.


Quote:
"I don’t want to see trickle-down racism,” Romney told Blitzer. “I don’t want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nation, and trickle-down racism, trickle-down bigotry, trickle-down misogyny, all these things are extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America.”

Mitt needs to get some mental help. In hindsight Trump was totally right that Mitt choked and on top of that Mitt is a sore loser.

What a huge disappointment he is and he should go to campaign for Hillary and see how great that will work for the both of them. Maybe he can become Hillary's VP!

We don't need a traitor.

It's pretty sad when Mitt Romney is the most sensible and sane person in the Republican Party these days.

As a Mormon, Romney should be able to tell racism when he sees it but, obviously is caught up in the "gang" mentality. The Mormon Church Disavows Its Racist Past But Still Offers No Apology

Trump is not a racist. We have been through this many times. Those that cry racist base it on their own feelings toward other races, yes, they actually believe we all feel that way.

They have had to exploit this "racist" thing because they have nothing else and they don't realize it, but they don't have that either.

Maybe after all, it isn't about "race" which Hispanic isn't in the first place, it is an ethnicity, but illegal aliens.

I agree with him!

I live in So. Cal and just last month we were tagged in our apartment with Nazi signs and "wetbacks go home" spray painted on the carport walls. (we live in "working class" apartment complex in a relatively nice area) The apartment had it painted over though within a couple of hours so that was good.
I talked with one of the girls in the office about it, and she said that she's had people come right up to her face lately and tell her she needs to go back where she came from. She said she's always mistaken for Hispanic which is amusing to her, (she's Greek) but it's gotten very hostile lately.

Trump's narcissism and lack of self awareness and self control are terrible qualities in a leader. You wouldn't want this stuff in a boss, a troop commander, Boy Scout Leader, etc. etc. so we're supposed to be okay with this for a President?

I know his "politically incorrect" way of speaking is somewhat refreshing, I get that, but he goes way too far. Like when you pay attention to a child doing something silly, and so they just keep doing it and then it just becomes obnoxious and you go "okay okay, that's enough now"

Do you know why? The government does not uphold the law and the American people are sick of it.. sick of the illegals burning Amercan flags, beating up Americans who are Trump supporters and waving the Mexican flag. We are sick of it!! The government has not done a thing about it. Nothing!

Racism runs deep by the illegals.. even the chief of police who is involved with THE RACE, La Raza , told the police to stand down and did not protect Americans being beaten by the illegals.. this is sick and we are fed up!

Although I am equally turned off by Trumps antics, I find it incredibly hysterical that anyone would take anything that Romney says seriously. His campaigns were a disaster. You didn't see Obama or Clinton clamoring for tips and advice on their campaigns from Michael Dukakis, no difference here.

Does Mitt Romney really think anybody cares what he thinks? He had his chance, and blew it because, like McCain, he was afraid to attack Obama.

Romney, who's apparently channeling his father, has a lot of nerve preaching to us about what a Conservative is. As usual, he's fighting the wrong enemy.

Gimmeabreak with these elites and their pow-wows.
