Romney: “It Will Be Very Difficult” For Party “To Be Put Back Together Again”
Buzz Feed News ^ | October 14, 2016 | Nathaniel Meyersohn, Intern

After criticizing Trump’s comments on the lewd video released last week, the 2012 nominee did not say who he would vote for, but said he thinks Trump has “maybe a 25% chance” of winning.

In a new interview, Mitt Romney says that he criticized Donald Trump’s 2005 comments about women last week because they were “so over the line” that they demanded an answer.

“I felt that I had to say something again to simply point out to the women of America, and to the men of America,” Romney said in a podcast interview with Ashcroft in America posted on Friday, “that we’re better than that and that this does not represent the quality or character of our country.”

In the interview, Romney talks at length about the 2012 Republican primary, the general election against President Obama (“It was not until election night that we recognized we were not going to win”), why he believes Republican voters nominated Trump, what the future holds for Republican Party as an institution, and how he thinks it’s likely that Hillary Clinton will win, but he doesn’t think “it’s impossible that Donald Trump wins,” saying he has a 25% chance.

“We’re conflicted as a people right now,” he said. “To a certain degree, we feel patriotism, pride in our country, [and] hope for the future. We’re family-oriented, God-fearing, hardworking people. On the other hand, there’s a growing stream of anger and resentment, defeatism, victimhood, and a lot of people are sort of torn in both ways. We have our better angels and our darker angels, if you will.”(continued)

It *can* be put back together.

But no Mormons, this time. Loyalty's important.

STFU Mittens. YOU ARE THE ONE WHO DESTROYED IT. Now, you’ve more than likely given that bitch Clintoon the presidency and she’ll destroy America for you. You lowlife.

After what Romney did to Trump earlier this year with his bizarre slanderous rant about Trump...Romney is also on my permanent sh*it list. What a jerk. He ruined his entire reputation with one selfish rant. Idiot. Loser Party Idiot, just like Jeb! and the rest of them.

You don’t want to know what the last Republican nominee is up to three weeks before the election?

I agree. So sick of the Uniparty.

May it die a quick death and be replaced by the “Deplorable” party! :)

Romney is a dumbass.
Romney is helping to unite a movement against the uniparty and it’s anti-Christ brand of corrupt corporate globalist socialism.

This may well end up a new replacement for the dead GOP.

Trump is leading this movement and Romney will eat dust from the dust bin of history.
