Romney, while imperfect, was a Republican his whole life with executive experience. Also well-informed and sharp as a tack. Trump, a proud ignoramus who would fail a pop quiz on civics or the names of world leaders, has been a Republican for like five minutes. And no, it's not enough for him to be conservative on one out of 10 issues. In reality, he's a social liberal (planned parenthood!) with a disturbing authoritarian streak. Nor did Romney ever refer to his junk at a debate. If I’m expected to vote for Trump or else I’m not a Republican, that’s fine by me. I will vote, or not vote, for anybody I damn well please.
Romney's idiocy was covered up by the Republican label. He's fucking stupid. He lost an election he should have won and he had Obama on the ropes and he backed off. One of the worst political moves in history and it cost an election. Then he gets up a couple of weeks ago with his speech against Trump, as if he's some spokesman for the party. Bullshit. There's a reason why he was elected in Massachusetts, a very Democtratic state. And Romey tried to sell himself as a moderate Republican. He used the "compromise" word long before Trump and used his experience in a Democtrat controlled state an example of appeal. He was nothing more than a RINO.....the worst kind of Republican.
And I didn't think there was anything wrong with his response on Planned Parenthood. They have done some good things for women outside of abortions and he was catering to the female vote with a comment like that.
And by the way, you may be a Republican but you're a Beltway Republican. The world outside of that 495/395 circle doesn't exist for the Beltway Bandits where everyone is employed by the G or feeds off the G until they retire or die. Folks are having a hard time outside of the DC area and it shouldn't come as any surprise that folks are bitter at the party. I know I am and I'm glad that Trump is exposing them. It adds to his appeal
And I can also appreciate how you've found political decency and are offended at his reference to his junk. But it's really too late for me to take your offense seriously.
