I didn’t vote for Romney nor did I vote for McCain. Two feckless fools who unfortunately won the Republican nomination for president.

Trumpism, yet he had Bay Buchanan advising him, and in the 2008 Primary, he met with Tom Tancredo to get his endorsement.

I didn’t vote for Romney nor did I vote for McCain.

And yet you are in complete agreement with them on Trump, among other things I'm sure.

Well, Romney was a very successful for DemocRats. At least he has that to meditate on in his old age.

What’s with this criticism of “populism”? Mike Pence said something similar, about how we have to be conservative and not follow “populism”.

is this a new talking point word handed out to anti Trump Republicans?

Probably secured his piece of the Ukraine funding pie, jauntily tipped his cap, and said, “Adios, losers!”

The democrat and Republican candidates in 2004, 2008, and 2012 were unacceptable for me, so I voted for someone else.

I took a lot of crap for it but wouldn’t change a thing.

Mittens - Just another feckless appeaser. Who worked toward globalism and the ultimate loss of sovereignty for the US.

“I doubt my support will mean anything positive to any of the candidates at the finish line,” Romney said.

Finally, Mitt and I can agree on something. His irrelevancy.

People choose populists and demagogues over rich by inheritance quitters and wishy washy politicians every time.
Romney turned out to be weak sauce.

Unless Romney is faking it for some obscure reason.

Anyone who represents both Massachusetts and Utah in his political career is a phony of the highest order.

Romney calling MAGA candidates demagogues is quite a bit of psychological projection.
