Mitt Romney explains why he waited until now to attack Donald Trump

"My son Tagg came running up the stairs," Romney told the Globe, remembering the day of Trump's CNN interview, in which he blamed a faulty earpiece for his inability to reject the support of the former Ku Klux Klan leader.

"[Tagg] was white in the face," Romney said. "He said can you believe what Donald Trump has said? And I was shocked as well. I contacted my colleagues, my advisers, and counselors and said: 'I'm giving a speech. I'm going to give it as soon as I can.'"

It’s not a question of why he waited, it’s why he would want to go against the American people at all???

[frankenMonkey]

I’ve heard some whoppers in my day, but this one is breathtaking...!

[novemberslady]

I wonder how it feels to be as full of shit as mitt is.

America didn't want you...you lost...get over it...go away.

[Dana1960]

I’m waiting to see how long it takes him to attack Obama, myself.

[P.O.E.]

Sorry, Mr. Romney - but you had your chance back in 2012, and you blew it.

[Vigilanteman]

Who cares? When is the last time you saw Democrats trip over each other to stampede to a microphone when a character far more repugnant than David Duke endorsed them?

[Cboldt]

-- ... it's why he would want to go against the American people at all? --

That should be no mystery. He's part of the political/royalty class, which has been working against the USA and its people for about 100 years.

[Vigilanteman]

I should have wrote ALLEGEDLY endorsed them, since the Duke endorsement turned out to be bogus.

[Enlightened1]

So it took Romney a week to come up with this BULL $HIT story???

LOL! What a LOSER!

[GeaugaRepublican]

Mitt told a better whopper than that.

Mitt was asked about his feelings about the LDS Church members needing to be “White and delightsome” and the racist origins of his religion.

He still remembers when he heard that the Mormon church announced that it was abandoning its belief in discrimination. He was driving his car and that he pulled over to the side of the road and wept.

What a phoney.

[Mr Apple]

Sit down and shut up Romney; no one is interested in anything you say.

[sevinufnine]

He waited until a time when it gave him an opportunity to do something for himself.

[dainbramaged]

B.S. meter pegged at maximum. Lying jerk.

[Suz in AZ]

Knee jerk reaction.
Great presidential quality.

[Grampa Dave]

How do Elite Harvard Law School grads feel about average American voters like us?

[Suz in AZ]

Isn’t bush one too?

[headstamp 2]

Are Mitts eyes brown?

[blackdog]

So the mittens are off on this huh?

[MarMema]

All complete CRAP. He did it days before the Michigan primary.

Because Michigan is all about the name Romney.
Mitt’s niece is the chair of the state Republican party.

As a child I accompanied my parents to campaign headquarters for Mitt’s father in Detroit.
