(Loser) Mitt Romney: Donald Trump is a 'phony, a fraud'
CNN ^ | March 3, 2016 | By Catherine Treyz

Posted on 03/03/2016 3:40:22 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney thinks "Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud" and that he's "playing the American public for suckers," according to prepared remarks provided by Romney to CNN.

According to the former Massachusetts governor, "the only serious policy proposals that deal with the broad range of national challenges we confront have come from Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and John Kasich."

Romney is expected to remark on some what-ifs about Trump becoming president. "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," Romney is expected to say.

Romney will also touch on a "twisted example of evil trumping good: "Trump's claims that he admires Russian President Vladimir Putin while calling "George W. Bush a liar."

What an embarrassment, a total loser this idiot is. He ran the worst campaign against the worst President. He should go crawl under a rock.

Mr. RomneyCARE = Greatest Fraud in Both Centuries

" Boston Herald - Friday, July 20, 2007
In an apparent violation of the law, a controverisal aide to ex-Gov. Mitt Romney
created phony law enforcement badges that he and other staffers used on the campaign trail

to strong-arm reporters, avoid paying tolls and trick security guards
into giving them immediate access to campaign venues, sources told the Herald.
They (the aides) knew the badges were fake and probably illegal,”
said a presidential campaign source who asked for anonymity
because the story could damage the individual’s career.
Two additional sources confirmed that the badges - described as bright silver plates with a state seal attached -
were first created and used by Garrity while Romney was still governor."

I see the cultists are up early today.

Expand the party?? Half the Republicans will not vote for the orange oompah loompa...including me and my family.

He may get a few new racists to vote. If that is the expansion you cultists seek, go for it.

#NeverEverTrump

The RINOs’ latest mantra - phony and fraud. When that backfires like it did with Rubio, then what?

I’m not a fan of Trump but from Mittens this is hitting below the belt.

I expected this attack from a Democrat not from a Republican.

We know now who Williard is and I don’t want to see him anywhere near the White House.

“Really? Having lived in soviet Red England, I can assure you that Milt is a steaming pile of excrement in the tradition of the Kennedys and the Kerrys. They do not give a tinker’s damn about anyone outside their circle.”

Yes, I am seeing that now. The extent of the corruption within our government is being exposed in a way we have never seen before. Trump is exposing them layer by layer. I am so glad he is running, will be even more glad if he wins. But, I am not so certain of his victory...I have never seen a candidate so opposed by those in power as this one. Republican elites, democrat elites, and their media all constant lies and distortions about this patriotic man.

Oh, please. Mother Jones and The Nation have made it to FreeRepublic as “truth” because they were pro-Trump or anti-Cruz. Not to mention the endless stream of crap from Salon and Huffpo.

When your side starts posting The Nation and Mother Jones without blinking, you’ve lost the high ground.

Nice projection, bro.

If anyone would know a fraud, it’s Romney. There’s a lot of frauds in the GOP, judging by quite a few who have said they’d vote for Hillary over Trump. They don’t want a wall or border security, it would interfere with the cheap labor their Chamber of Commerce masters demand as payment for their backing. Hillary’s one of them, even with the D behind her name.

Mittens is a fool. I wonder how many goodies the power brokers in D.C. Are giving him for this zombie reappearance.
