Against the street fighting mudslinging dirt machine that Hillary is, Romney would have been toasted by the media.
Trump has the balls and backbone to fight back.

Look if the DNC and their media lackeys can taint Romney for “binders full of women,” A “dog on the roof” of his station wagon, and “killing the wife of one of his workers” by denying medical coverage.....what would you imagine Hillary could do today.

The situation called for a street fighter who is willing to get in the mud pit and deal with Clinton where she lives....in the sewer of life.

Mitt might actually have won, in 2012, if he had actually run as a Republican who was mindful of his base. As it was, he ran his campaign for President the same way he ran his campaign for MA Senator, against Teddy the Swimmer. He ran as a Liberal Republican, and voters in MA decided they wanted the genuine article, and voted for Teddy.

When Mitt ran against Obama, the same thing happened. He didn't want to embrace the Republican base, so he ran as a middle of the roader and got squashed.

Trump was already doing that even though Romney wasn’t on stage.

Come on, he’s spent more time fighting the GOP nominee this cycle than he did fighting for the presidency in 2012.

Perfect!

[HamiltonJay]

Because you blew a very winnable race in 12 and you know it

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

So true.

[italyconservative]

Just. Go. Away!

[Ditter]

I didn’t say he was a good politician or a good Republican, he was a good human being.

[ManHunter]

Hey “Mitt”, you were the stalking horse for Obama in 2012. No way you were gonna get a chance to do it for Hillary in 2016.

[RedWulf]

Romney spent more time attacking Trump than he did Obama. He’s a traitor.

[DEEP_e]

while the rest of us wonder why he dropped out of the 2012 election

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Romney’s magic underpants are WAY too tight if this fool thinks he could have won the Republicans primaries, much less the general election.

[Qiviut]

My first thought .... :-)

[Twinkie]

ROMNEY did NOT “stay out” of the 2016 race. He ran his
piehole nonstop until he finally got tired of running his
piehole.

[Albion Wilde]

Uh... because you’re a prissy, self-righteous dweeb and cultist?

That's odd. I've always wondered why he stayed out of the 2012 presidential race.

[bray]

He has nice hair.

Pray America wakes

Romney MIGHT have out polled Jeb Bush, but that's about it. I think his original agreement with the Bush family was to act as the 2012 placeholder, which he was, in order to nominate Jeb in 2016.

Trouble is the public hadn't had enough time to forget the last Bush, so they just weren't buying what Jeb was selling.

Dear Mitt,
you’re not running this year because
you threw/blew the 2012 election to the IIIC (illegal islamonazi in chief)

and now you’ve been backstabbing the R nominee.

any more questions?
