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."

How DARE he speak like that when SO MANY who had him as a LAST CHOICE in 2012 kept their mouths shut and were good Republicans. That wing will never, ever be able to ask for such courtesies ever again.

As opposed to trickle up wussiness? Romney hates, loathes and despises just like his Daddy, every RINO I can think of and most certainly the Progressive, elitist GOP establishment from McConnell, Boehner Jr. (Ryan), McCain, Graham, Peter King, Kevin McCarthy et al.on down

Mitt Romney, if he was smart, would shut his mouth for the remainder of this election. He is digging a hole for himself that he will not be able to get out of with these statements.

I guess no one can criticize Elizabeth Warren or Romney will get mad:

“Elizabeth Warrant Listed as ‘Woman of Color’ in Harvard student journal”

Romney, Ryan, and McConnell will work to defeat Trump from now until November. They are now diehard saboteurs.

LOL Warren can’t lie out of that one. She passed herself off as a “woman of color” for years, and only when she decided to run for office and move up did the abandon the transparent lie. She used it to advance herself. Further, she caused Harvard to LIE on federal documents that listed her as a minority and Native American in forms they have to file with the federal government.
She LIED. LYIN’ LIZZY the fake “woman of color” from Harvard.

worth a chuckle -— racism and misogyny -—

rumney has not yet learned that illegal hispanics and muslims neither one is a ‘race’ and to not want them here is not racism but common sense.

A strong anti-muslim refugee feeling is the best for womens safety (ie see Germany/Swedens woes). No religion/cult is more misognistic than the muslims. I cannot remember the las time I saw a woman buried up to her torso in the ground as men chuck boulders at her head in the USA.

Rumney needs to stop sniffing the ketchup and get out more.

Trump should threaten to have Romney tried for treason for throwing the 2012 election.
Maybe add McCain for doing it in 2008 too if he starts popping off.

“I want my vote back. I might as well have voted for Zero.”

I hated his guts and still voted for him. And then I had to read whining Freepers always moaning and groaning about people staying home and not voting for this jerk. He’d have given away the store and elected lots of Democrats if elected. We know which side he is on.
