Donald Trump’s top adviser Paul Manafort said Sunday that former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is a “coward” for not throwing his hat into this year’s GOP primary race.

"He's now attacking this past weekend all the other Republicans who ran for president as well saying they should have done a better job,” Manafort, Trump’s campaign chair and chief strategist, said on ABC's "This Week." Well, if he feels that way he should have run. He was a coward.”

Speaking to a crowd at his annual summit in Utah yesterday, Romney appeared emotional when he explained why he could not back Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee....

And he’s even more of a coward for treating Obama so gently in ‘12.

Mitt is contemptible.

And being a coward is pretty low on the list of demerits that fill the sick sack of skin that is Mitt Romney.

So your campaign is having trouble with women because of the un-presidential behavior and this is how the campaign continues. I can not stand Romney but this was just another off-putting move.

Is there no one in Trump's campaign that actually understands how talk or better yet ignore yapping dogs like Romney? Why give him the time of day at this time? Your guy won! Go on to the real opponent do not give Romney the time of day!

He also go emotional when he learned that the LDS would accept blacks into the priesthood. He’s never said that the 12 honchos voted on this but did not put it into effect for 8 years or more.

Romney is part of the confusion that benefits Trump.

You don’t appear to understand why this is good.

Backstabbers like Romney, who send surrogates
after children, are always cowards.

But steal the money he does; this week
from Puerto Rico using his little trained toad, Ryan.

I saw it here, somewhere. I cannot take credit.

It is spot on, though!

Paul is correct. Mitt just blamed the other candidates running for not being tough enough on Trump. If he felt that way he should have thrown his hat in the ring. Mitt is indeed a coward.

He proved his cowardice when he took a dive in the 2012 election.

Mitt is now just trying to keep the Cheap Labor Express running.

Romney is even more of a snivelling boob than I thought in 2012.

Give Mittens a tube of Vagasil and move on. He’s a loser. His family is responsible for the AMC Pacer, and that’s exactly what he is...the AMC Pacer of American politics.

So saying Trump will lead to trickle down racism is not off putting ? Are you ok? Romney is a coward and moving into traitor territory. After today it’s either Trump or Hillary. Anyone still confused is clueless.
