Have been reading much this afternoon on Mitt. It is almost as if he is having a complete psychological breakdown. Something more at stake than his family, finances and “sacred honor”? What could it be that he is this unhinged?

“Mitt doesn’t have much stick-to-itiveness, so he’ll get tired soon enough and give up.”

Good observation, which is supported by his past.

Mittens is so far on the outside looking in that he’s no longer relevant.

Romney should have entered the race after getting snookered in the 2012 election—If he’s so hot on a 3rd Party bid—why doesn’t he run himself? Maybe he could get Carley to run as his VP? Go Reform Party? Write in? Conservative Party? do a Ross Perot? If this has any chance—he should have started yesterday.

Blood boiler: Romney speech against Trump

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xd3kr-QpeM

Heavily edited transcript - the essence:

[snip]

If we Republicans choose Donald Trump as our nominee, the prospects for a safe and prosperous future are greatly diminished.

[snip]

If Donald Trump’s plans were ever implemented, the country would sink into prolonged recession.

[snip]

His tax plan in combination with his refusal to reform entitlements and honestly address spending would balloon the deficit and the national debt.

[snip]

But you say, wait, wait, wait, isn’t he a huge business success? Doesn’t he know what he’s talking about? No, he isn’t and no he doesn’t.

[snip]

Frankly, the only serious policy proposals that deal with a broad range of national challenges we confront today come from Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and John Kasich. One of these men should be our nominee.

[snip]

Mr. Trump’s bombast is already alarming the allies and fueling the enmity of our enemies.

[snip]

I’m afraid that when it comes to foreign policy he is very, very not smart.

[snip]

Now, I’m far from the first to conclude that Donald Trump lacks the temperament to be president.

[snip]

There is a dark irony in his boasts of his sexual exploits during the Vietnam War.

Dishonesty is Donald Trump’s hallmark.

[snip]

He’s not of the temperament of the kind of stable, thoughtful person we need as a leader.

[snip]

Think of Donald Trump’s personal qualities. The bullying, the greed, the showing off, the misogyny, the absurd third grade theatrics.

[snip]

There are a number of people who claim that Mr. Trump is a con man, a fake — thank you.

Let me say that again. There’s plenty of evidence that Mr. Trump is a con man, a fake.

[snip]

If I’m right, you’ll have all the proof you need to know that Donald Trump is indeed a phony.

[snip]

Mr. Trump is directing our anger for less than noble purposes.

[snip]

Here’s what I know. Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University.

[snip]

He’s playing the members of the American public for suckers. He gets a free ride to the White House and all we get is a lousy hat.

[snip]

His domestic policies would lead to recession. His foreign policies would make America and the world less safe. He has neither the temperament nor the judgment to be president and his personal qualities would mean that America would cease to be a shining city on a hill.

” What could it be that he is this unhinged?”

Mama, After reading another synopsis of Agenda 21 for the 10th time, I am pretty certain that Trump is set to tear down the Agenda 21 system: Environmental, energy, population, common corp, healthcare; all the engines tearing down our country and pushing us into the dark ages. I’m betting Mittens is in that scheme. DJT is in grave danger.

Romney seems to be the root of most of the trouble making in this primary.

He is a nasty man.

“Too bad he didn’t put as much time and effort into his campaign against 0bama, he might be running for re-election now instead of just being an a$$.”

Exactly.

Sasse is an ass and he'd probably have run except that a blogger discovered that he has a serious pedophilia problem. Sassy was a little too close to the Denny Hastert scandal. Sassy was a big supporter of Hastert and some suspect he used his position of authority to enable abuse. Ben Sasse was in charge of supervising underage boys, who were later abused by members of Congress.

I'll bet you didn't know that Speaker of the House Haster turned out to be a lifelong pedofile. I sure didn't. That is until Mike Cernovich shined the light on the #NeverTrump cabal. For more on the scandal see Ben Sasse and #NeverTrump's Pedophile Problem

Thanks be to the Inter-webs for uncovering this dark episode.

Sounds like the type Romney would support—LOSERS.

Sasse has ties with the Congressional page-boy scandal. So he ain’t running.

Boy, ol Mittens is really going to bat for the global elite this time around. Too bad he threw his own chance at the brass ring 4 years ago by refusing to play hardball with Bath House. What a jackass.

Mitt please exit the stage. Your time for being relevant is over.
