Romney's Latest Money Scheme
The Boston Phoenix ^ | April 12, 2012 | David Bernstein

Posted on 03/03/2016 5:19:18 PM PST by true believer forever

This week, the Romney campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) established a joint-fundraising account, "Romney Victory Inc." The idea is that donors can write one big check to the joint account, which can then be divvied up between Romney's campaign committee and the RNC.

According to Romney Victory fundraising documents, the first $5000 in an individual's contributions to Romney Victory will go to the Romney campaign (the $2500 maximum for use in the primary campaign, which technically runs through the convention, and the $2500 maximum for the general election). The next $30,800 goes to the RNC, again the maximum allowed.

Romney used this scam in 2012, and now he has registered the same Romney Victory as of 1/30/2016. This enables the funds to go to the RNC for distribution to the state gop committees. Also registered in the same FEC document is a Romney for President and Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan fundraising committee for 2016. Looks like the fix has been in for quite awhile.

Romney humiliated himself today. He will never be the same. Why didn’t his lovely wife stop him? I guess she is a typical abused Mormon wife.

Apparently, Romney and Ryan may have been scheming since last September to run for President and VP. Take a few minutes and go to the link below and read the 4 infamous pdf pages.

If true, they have been planning $crew not only Trump but Cruz and ???.

Is this for real?

I think you might have it backwards. I think Romney did the bribing. These are all infrastructure from 2012, which he has resurrected for 2016, and which, it seems, will function basically as a money laundering scheme. Individuals will give to Romney and half of that goes to Romney and the rest to the RNC who will funnel it to state gop committees. Meaning, the fix is in, from vote counting to every other sort of accommodation they provide.

More importantly an individual can give 5000 to Romney, when 2500 is the limit. The first 2500 goes to the Romney campaign apparatus and the rest goes to the RNC and then off to state gop committees, at least that is the sense I made of it.

Why isn’t he using his own money? Trump must go for the big donors now. He must finish them as soon as possible.

I did read the four pages, and did a little research, and all the individuals cited therein are from his 2012 campaign. This is what Rush is talking about when he speaks about scenarios being carried out behind closed doors and the public only seeing the final stages of it out front.

And from the looks of this, he didn't have the courage to go for it honestly against Trump. Instead, all of these backroom machinations so typical of the gopE.

It broke my heart, but I went and voted for him in 2012, trying to be a good conservative and fight the good fight against barack. They really just think we are fools. And they must believe we have no memories at all.

20012 Romney Campaign Spend:

The campaign had spent $360.4 million
$284.2 million by the Republican National Committee
$200.1 million from the top three Romney Super Pacs.

All told, that’s more than $844.6 million.

Squandered more than $800 million on a LAME campaign and lost.

He wants to do it again. I will not help him. I will not vote for him under any circumstances.

I believe that if any one else(excluding Cruz) gets the GOPe nomination Trump will go 3rd party and gain even more voters. For once it ain’t working.

I think if you agree there will be a lot of disillusioned Bernie supporters out there that might look to come on board, you could be very correct. I think Bernie supporters who could support Trump are somewhere in the 23% range. that's a nice bit of help.

Vile is certainly the right word. The establishment may not have been willing to take on Trump outwardly for a long time but they certainly were working hard behind closed doors. Sickening.
