Romney. He of Stericycle/abortion legislation/personally funding Planned Parenthood fame. Thats what Stericycle does. BBQ dead babies for money. He profits from that and it was common knowledge. And it was just fine for 70ish million people that voted with depraved indifference.
The voters were driven by the dame old. The same free sXit mentality that drives Black lives matter/regular liberals. Except they want their crap to be called conservative to make their consciences feel better.
Winning matters. Not who they win with. Just winning so they can say they won. If they WANTED conservative governance, they havent shown it in the primaries or general for over 30 years.
We’re like two ships passing in the night. We’re just not connecting.
My understanding is that the GOPe pulled some dirty tricks, for want of a better description, to haul Romney’s butt across the finish line. I’m simply unaware of voters in large numbers believing that unless they voted for Romney there was a very real possibility that their country would cease to exist.
Comparing the tepid support Romney elicited from the overall base, and the seething hostility he aroused in the TEA party faction of the GOP, to Trump’s support is simply missing the point. The floodgates have been thrown wide open. The invading horde is streaming in. The country is on life support. Voters are choosing between teddy bears and soccer balls and a vow to build a wall. It is life or death. That is the driving force in this election.
