They both did propaganda to demoralize the troops fighting for freedom

That was exactly the aim of mitts speeches against trump - and against us

They both rooted for the losing side.

Tokyo Rose was a U.S. citizen who was stuck in Japan in 1941. She was under a lot of pressure from the Japanese government to make those broadcasts. After the war American servicemen said they actually liked her broadcasts because she played the best music; and the GI’s did not believe the propaganda any way.

Mitt Romney, on the other hand, was under no pressure to do what he did to Trump. He voluntarily tried to put Hillary Clinton in the White House and ruin what is left of our country.

You are correct.....we are battling for our heart and soul and very survival...Romney comes out and does what?????

After losing so badly....he and Ryan couldn’t even win WI and MI.......

I think that this is Trump’s biggest Rick Roll ever...and Romney, the Preener, is taking the bait

No Japanese broadcaster used the name “Tokyo Rose,” which was a collective name given by Western listeners to several personalities who broadcast over Radio Tokyo in English. Iva Toguri, the best-known of these broadcasters, used the name Orphan Ann when she was on the air.

Imagine the glee in the press when Romney resigns as SOS over a policy dispute which will inevitably happen. Will make Trump look alt right and hurt his numbers. Bad choice if made. On the other hand if Trump declines to pick him it would be humiliating for Romney and just deserts for his anti-Trump speeches during the primarys. I vote for the latter.

“Smooth and nice boobs”...the “voice” didn't do much for me...but that was a long time ago....

Mittens is the very snake that Trump was warning us about during his campaign. So if he’s given the SoS job I’m almost at the point of hoping he turns around and sinks his fangs in Trump’s ass. Would serve him right.

Perhaps not the analogy you’re looking for.

I have condemned him, as you well know. But that doesn’t fit your false, dishonest RSS/regime narrative, so you just keep spreading the lies.

Sorry - must have missed your condemnation among the posts where you compared Ajrawat (a convicted criminal) and your/his site to Jim Rob and FR. Can you post this condemnation you mention? This will be a first for you - and I can only imagine the screaming fits at the Council of Khalistan that preceded the approval you received.

I salute your bravery. /sarc

Is it possible your post got lost in cyberspace just like Kalra went AWOL in Canada?
