Business Insider ^ | March 3, 2016 | Colin Campbell

Donald Trump repeatedly attacked Mitt Romney on Thursday ahead of the speech in which Romney is expected to torch the Republican presidential frontrunner.

"Mitt Romney is a stiff. Mitt Romney will not get elected. Mitt Romney failed twice and really failed last time," Trump said on NBC's "Today" show, referring to Romney's two past presidential bids.

This is going to be fun. Mitt is about to get obliterated. He’s the perfect contrast to the new winners mentality Trump is promoting.

Because Romney and his entourage are political idiots who believe they’re going to hurt Trump.

This is NOT ABOUT DEFEATING TRUMP IN THE PRIMARIES, IT IS ABOUT LAYING THE GROUNDWORK TO DEFEAT HIM IN NOVEMBER.

This backstabbing by the GOP treasonists is absolutely unreal. I really think they want Hitlery to win.

The Mitt speech:

“Well, I came here to praise Trump and urge the GOP to get behind him, but he’s been a total A-Hole to me so he can go F—— himself.”

LOL!

Perfectly summarizes the intra-establishment squabble.

Romney loved Trump in 2012 and Romney hates Trump in 2016.
Trump loved Romney in 2012 and Trump hates Romney in 2016.
Romney hated Trump in 2016 and Romney loves Trump in 2017.
Trump hated Romney in 2016 and Trump loves Romney in 2017.

All part of the game. Note how the power never seems to leave the establishment? Yesterday, it was Romney. Today it is Trump. Tomorrow it will be yet another oligarch.

They are willing to lose the White House in order to protect the down ticket.

Also, they know HRC is toast so the election pretty much ends in Cleveland. They are jealous of missing their chance.

Amazing, isn't it? They're still not getting it.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago

Why did Mitt Romney BEG me for my endorsement four years ago?

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago

I am the only one who can beat Hillary Clinton. I am not a Mitt Romney, who doesn’t know how to win. Hillary wants no part of “Trump”

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago

Why would the great people of Florida vote for a guy who, as a Senator, never even shows up to vote - worst record. Marco Rubio is a joke!

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 3h3 hours ago

I have brought millions of people into the Republican Party, while the Dems are going down. Establishment wants to kill this movement!

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 3h3 hours ago

Failed candidate Mitt Romney,who ran one of the worst races in presidential history,is working with the establishment to bury a big “R” win!

The GOPe doesn't suffer at all when a liberal is president. They do better for themslves pretending to be the opposition party.

A guy who could not handle Candy Crowley going up against Trump.

Gonna be like a D III tailback going up against the Denver Bronco defense.

I cannot believe they are making Trump, a New York billionaire with a "bully" tag, the underdog and champion of the little guy.

God, no wonder we have lost so many elections with this tin-eared gang of incompetents running our party for so long.

Mitt is about to get his ass handed to him.

It's like 1984 and the Ministry of peace being in perpetual ( but rotating) war with the other two superpowers. When alliances chance that all insist that they were always in alliance.

Mitt Romney speaks while waving the bloody underwear. Someone tell me what martyrs of the past he invokes. I can’t watch him without fluid rising from my stomach.

What’s new? These chronic liars, traitors-to-their-electorate and traitors-to-their-oath-of-office are blinded by their lust for personal power and money. Bums...I say ALL are bums.
