From the story: Romney, though, credited Trump with waging a politically savvy primary campaign. “He played it extremely well,” he said, noting that the New York businessman had tapped into a deep vein of voter frustration. “It was a very effective strategy.”

“Their biggest failure was attacking each other and not the frontrunner,” Romney said. “Just politically, I thought that move was not right for them.”

What planet was this guy on during the primaries?

Romney is the biggest douchebag there is right now. What he actually thinks he’ll accomplish with his childish temper tantrum is unknown. I think that the #nevertrumpers must have some deep dark secret that they are willing to make public to get him to humiliate himself over and over again like he has been doing.

Duhhhh.....if Romney hadn't thrown the election to Obama four years ago, there would not have been primaries this year.

I used to have a better impression of Romney. Now, I think he's a sleazy creep who can't stand being compared to someone who's superior to him in just about every way.

“As he has on previous occasions, Romney warned that a Trump presidency could have disastrous repercussions for the country.”

The elites have all done fabulous under Obama. They want to keep the gravy train rolling.

So the guy who lost to a sissyfied quasi dark skinned man is talking to “experts” what they coulda-shoulda done?
That’s kind of like letting the horses out of the barn after the fire burned it down...it’s a bit late you have to be in a fire prevention mode
and if that fails a fire supression mode
and if not...you are going to get beat by the man with the flame thrower Donald J Trump and all you have is a fancy title...you Mitt Romney are toast...go away!

All Trump had to do is TELL THE TRUTH about who and what are destroying this country. Simple as that. Many people, not enough yet, understand what is happening.

He is auditioning for the VP slot on Hillary's ticket. If she is indicted, he is auditioning for the Democratic presidential nomination, with the intent of creating a Democratic-Republican Party via merger to stop Trump.

Mitt Romney should look in the mirror..he let a has-been news anchor in Candy Crowley walk all over him during the debate with Obama..she schooled him and he didnt even fight back..Poor Mittens, he just wishes he was relevant, he would rather see the Republicans lose than admit he was an epic failure

A clear pattern is emerging.

Yep. What other Republicans are saying about Trump is concern trolling on steroids.

If only Mitt would have shown this much gumption when he was running against Obama. But no, he had to basically hand the election to Obama, too afraid to criticize him for anything.

I am reminded of groups like Amnesty International, who speak up loudly to denounce the US death penalty and our “deplorable” prison conditions—while remaining silent about real prisoner abuses taking place in regimes such as Cuba, China, anywhere in the Middle East.

Romney—just go away. You had your chance, and you blew it.

Romney doesn’t support democracy. He wants to appoint a dictator.

I'm going in circles over that one.

Mittens lost to jOkeass. The humiliation should keep him speechless.

Romney, though, credited Trump with waging a politically savvy primary campaign.

Trump's "strategy" wasn't even a strategy though. Romney is still congratulating Trump within the context of Republican establishment thinking, as if Trump obliterated 16 other opponents by having the best focus groups, hundreds of millions of dollars in attack ads, and the best internal pollsters.

Nothing could be further from the truth. All Trump did was focus on issues that were being ignored by both parties, and put them on a nationalist platform.
