That's why Trump went after him. Trump is a coward who trolls on twitter.

Romney a good choice and a conservative.

Trump is neither.
Says the liberal who will vote against Romney for a Democrat... Like they did last time... These anti-Trumpers are just plain liars...

Hillary lost. Get over it. Too bad so sad.
What do you believe those accomplishments and successful achievements to be? I'd like to know.

During the third quarter of this year, President Trump and the RNC raised $125 million in fundraising.
Former President Obama and the DNC raised just over $70 million in the third quarter of 2011.
Romney couldn't even beat Obama!

CNN or MSNBC will never tell you about all the good things he's doing so you should go out and try and get more positive news.

Just one of a hundred great things he's done such as Prison reform, Black unemployment rates, 6 million new jobs......... I could go on but you'll never believe it.

An interesting article within The Atlantic draws attention to one of the more intended consequences of Maganomics: wages for the middle-class Americans are rising twice as fast as wages for high-income earners.

I supported him in 2012, but I can't say that now since he's a serious Rhino and missing the ability to fight like Trump does every single day.

Romney could have won against Obama in 2012, but he's too passive where you need a Trump to fight fire with fire... Something the GOP hasn't figured out yet and probably never will. With that said, after Trump leaves the Whitehouse, he'll be the last Republican President for a long while... Or until the Democrat's socialist ideals destroy both the country and the middle class.

This is something the Democrats want so badly, but they're not getting Romney in 2020... It will be Trump, who will tear down a Biden, Warren or Harris in a heart beat with facts and explain to the middle-class that the democrats will have no choice but to severally raise taxes on the working middle class AND sink our booming economy.

Agree with all of the above. Romney had Obama on the ropes after the first debate, then turtled up when the Globalists got to him. Total RINO elitist.

You sound like a true blue (D) all the way.

How many Democrats come out to condemn fellow Democrats these days? If they cannot even slap the hand of a freshman Congresswoman making all sorts of anti-Semitic comments, and instead come up with some generalized anti-hate resolution, what does that tell you.

In the past the Democrats would have shut down the squad of kooks and taught them proper decorum despite their hatred (like they did with KKK members). Today the obnoxious few seem to have free reign of the roost.

As to Romney, he is too nice for the political environment we find ourselves in today. He does not know how to fight back, and while Trump is over the top at times, at least he has some backbone.

Since you are the OP, let me ask you this question.

Would you rather have Romney get the nomination and lose the general election to a leftist Democrat, or prefer Trump since he is likely to win the general election in 2020?

He already won the GOP primary just one short election ago in 2012, and lost to an ineffective and divisive president.
Remember how decent the media and leftists were toward that decent person?

I’m aware he won the gop primary in the past. I was implying now, which I thought would be obvious.

While Romney did get the nomination (some posters must be too young or ignorant to realize it) as you say, what is with your FYI
The irrelevant and so called "popular vote" is doubly irrelevant when you compare different vote counts in different elections.
Trump might have lost to Obama, and Hillary might have beaten Romney, as different constituencies come out for different reasons.

This entire premise might be an interesting thing to discuss, but Romney has 5% chance of winning the R nomination, even if Trump were to pass away. Pence would most likely be the nominee, and he would win if Romney were to run in 2020.
Why?
Many Republicans are tired of RINO's that give in to the Democrats bullying, and turn into feckless eunuchs against the MSM. The constant assaults from leftists when R's oppose all manner of socialist/communist dogma turns them into non conservatives.

The Democrats have created culture wars within our society to the point of FDR, JFK, Truman or LBJ would not even being able to recognize their own party any longer.
