'He's a fool': Trump fires back at 'tough guy' Romney

Donald Trump fired back at former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for wondering Wednesday if a "bombshell" was sitting in his unreleased tax returns.

Fresh off his victory in Nevada, Trump fired off a trio of tweets at Romney, calling him a "fool" and a "tough guy" for his attack, adding that he should have beaten President Obama as the Republican nominee in 2012.

>>>Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrumpWhen Mitt Romney asked me for my endorsement last time around, he was so awkward and goofy that we all should have known he could not win!<<<

>>>Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump "@Ward_II: Oh great @MittRomney is doing a @SenatorReid on @realDonaldTrump like losing the presidency wasn't enough #Trump2016" He's a fool<<<

>>>Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Mitt Romney,who totally blew an election that should have been won and whose tax returns made him look like a fool, is now playing tough guy<<<

Earlier in the day, Romney told Fox News' Neil Cavuto that he worried over the fact that Trump, Sen. Marco Rubio and Sen. Ted Cruz had not released their back tax returns for "several years" as Romney had in 2012. He added that there is "good reason" to think there's a "bombshell" in Trump's taxes, given his wealth.

Once he’s the nominee it will be too late to face these character and legal issues.

Let me help everyone here understand what you really meant. Here it is:

Once he’s the nominee it will be too late to face these for me to see my own character and legal issues insanity. And too late to wish for a brokered convention to install Scott Walker as the rightful nominee!!! I know he should have won........I just know it.......

:-)

So, Romney agrees with Harry Reid and how Harry Reid treated him 4 years ago.

BTW, where are Cruz's tax returns? I heard there were bombshells in them as well.

Romney and the GOPe are disgusting.

She does have an obsession to the point that she is possessed and her family should call a priest for an exorcism. :-)

I've heard a similar sentiment from a lot of people.

URGENT!

Fellow MORMON Freeper Christians!!

I've been getting lots of feedback from those of you on Free Republic (spit) about a certain Colorfornicator (or something like that) and ELSIE and Reaganaut, who are REALLY giving us a hard time there.

 

Why not try to point out to the uninformed how OBSESSED they seem to be.

 

Let's see if we can tangle them up so much trying to defend their reputations that they'll no longer have as much time to post facts about MORMONism.

 

As always, Tommy M.

I think “silly” is not exactly the word. Demented, misguided, ill-advised, come to mind. Moreover, the tactic you are engaged in is pure Alinsky. Repeat defamations of others until they are ingrained in the psyche.

If you were posting on Yahoo or the Huff Po, you would be more effective. Here? Not so much.

[QuigleyDU]

Yet he is the only candidate with any real chance of beating Hillary.
That is your opinion and it is just not backed up by the facts.

Sure it is, if the other R’s can’t beat Trump, how they gonna beat Hillary.

“What trash?”

Well let’s start with the wedding picture of the Trumps and the Clintons. Do you not think if you are a businessman it would be a plus to have the current sitting Senator at your wedding with a past president?

How many times have your posted that? That is recycling TRASH!

And by the way what YEAR was that picture taken?

[odawg]

“The only thing you are posting is emotions, not reasoned thought.”

Reasoned thought?

Like this from CW?

“I have no trust in the man. Everything he says has multiple sides, he attacks people personally, he sues people constantly - imagine him with control over the Department of Justice - the IRS - all the legal departments of all the government agencies. That should frighten everyone.”

[Elsie]

Why did you have any for this cheap used car salesman in the first place?

You make missishies sad...

[Elsie]

The left one or the right?

[Chgogal]

Cruz has not filed his tax returns. Where are they?

Romney pulled a Harry Reid, and you and the nasty wife support that. That reflects poorly on you and the GOPe.

[Elsie]

Nobody has an issue with you posting your opinion, but you are out of control.

Oh?

WHOSE control do you want her to be under?

[mad_as_he$$]

“Silly me.”

First true post you have made since returning after Walker’s demise.

[odawg]

FDR and Carter were not businessmen.

[Elsie]

You need a few days off of here, whether by your choice or by the mods.

Then you need to WARN the mods about her!

[OKSooner]

If something like that were to happen it would be very, very bad.

[Elsie]

And we are morbidly curious to see the depths of denial to which Trump supporters will go in ignoring their man’s past actions.

And we are morbidly curious to see the heights of MEH! to which Trump NON-supporters will go in ignoring Donald's LATEST actions.

Mitt Romney, who was one of the dumbest and worst candidates in the history of Republican politics, is now pushing me on tax returns. Dope!

[Elsie]

The Chinese (and Putin and Kim Jong-un, etc) all know they can deal with the Donald because he has no ideological core.

Hillary knows that she can deal with the Chinese (and Putin and Kim Jong-un, etc) because SHE has a solid ideological core.

[odawg]

“It’ all about Trump being “in everyone”s face” and not about his ideology.”

People with an obsessive ideology, what you are accusing Trump of having, start out at a very young age, enter the political world, and then try to force their pet ideologies onto society.

At a very young age, Trump entered the business world in New York City, a very tough place for his kind of business, remained there, and has become unusually successful. He did not deal in theory and speculation.

He has not been trying to force whatever he believes on the rest of the nation.

That description fits EVERYONE else in his race. Every single one of them have made their way running their mouths. They deal exclusively in theory and speculation.

[Elsie]

I'm guessing this is not a favorite verse from Trump's "Favorite book".

Galatians 3

¹ You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.

² I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard?

³ Are you so foolish?
