Mitt Romney says Donald Trump will change America with 'trickle-down racism'

Park City, Utah (CNN)Mitt Romney suggested Friday that Donald Trump's election could legitimize racism and misogyny, ushering in a change in the moral fabric of American society.

The 2012 Republican nominee, who has openly opposed Trump's candidacy, went further than he has before in outlining to CNN's Wolf Blitzer how the country's character would suffer in a Trump White House. Trump's rhetoric has caused even some other Republicans to label him a racist, and Romney said he would not be able to paper over his incendiary remarks. "I don't want to see trickle-down racism," Romney said in an interview here in a suite overlooking the Wasatch Mountains, where he is hosting his yearly ideas conference. "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."

So, Mitt, what’s affirmative action? Trickle-up racism?

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say that Mitt Romney, Bill Kristol and Glenn Beck are kamikaze pilots, working for the corrupt Washington cartel to try to take down Trump.

Nothing like the POS GOPe giving the left wing media their sound bites.

I’ve really got an education this campaign season as to just how far gone the GOP is.

People forget that Mitt Romney has done more for the democrats/socialists/communists/Marxists than he has ever done for the republicans let alone conservatives.

1. Obamacare can be traced directly to him

2. Gay marriage in the US can be tied directly to him

3. He gave us McCain who lost to Obama the first time. Then he, himself, lost to Obama when anyone else willing to run against and confront Obama could have won.

Is it any wonder that he is now trying to bring Hillary to the White House? When will people wake up? He’s not just the fox in the henhouse. He’s taken over the henhouse, opened all the doors and hypnotized/brainwashed all the hens to willingly go with every fox, coyote, wolf and weasel that shows up.

Mitt Romney is not now, nor has he ever been, a conservative. Right now, he really can’t even pass for a republican, even if he chooses to “self-identify” as one.

Only one thing explains this. LBJ’s plantation isn’t going to last 200 years and the black race is tired of being lied to.

Mittons is a big part of keeping people on the porch.

Does anyone really believe this guy’s BS, or is the general public writing this loser off? I’m seriously worried this clown is infecting the minds of some voters that could vote for Trump, but will stay home bc they are afraid of what Trump will be like as potus.

Comrade obama has been the decade long steady drip of ‘trickle-down racism’ that has been rotting out our society. Mitt is a little slow.

Why isn’t the Republican party officially condemning this jerk’s comments and disowning him? Or do THEY want to lose, too?

___________

The only guy actually doing his job is Priebus, believe it or not. He and Trump were the only ones to condemn these statements.

Here’s the sad truth, and it will become more clear every passing day:
The GOPe politicians will actively work to defeat Trump from this day forward. The want him to lose. Read what they are saying—all of them—and this is the only conclusion one can reach.

This coming from a Mormon, a religion in which blacks were said to be inferior because they screwed up in a previous life. Get lost, Mitt.
