If Donald Trump’s plans were ever implemented, the country would sink into prolonged recession.
CNN ^ | March 3, 2016 | Mitt Romney

"If we Republicans choose Donald Trump as our nominee, the prospects for a safe and prosperous future are greatly diminished. Let me explain why I say that. First on the economy. If Donald Trump's plans were ever implemented, the country would sink into prolonged recession. A few examples. His proposed 35 percent tariff-like penalties would

instigate a trade war and that would raise prices for consumers, kill our export jobs and lead entrepreneurs and businesses of all stripes to flee America.

His tax plan in combination with his refusal to reform entitlements and to honestly address spending would balloon the deficit and the national debt. So even though Donald Trump has offered very few specific economic plans, what little he has said is enough to know that he would be very bad for American workers and for American families. But you say, wait, wait, wait. Isn't he a huge business success? Doesn't he know what he's talking about? "

Given the GDP news this morning I think a Mitt pile-on is reasonable.

To paraphrase an earlier poster in FR;

Mittens would have sold us down the river. For a fair return to the Deep State types, mind you.

Romney is a miserable, lying sleazebag who will say anything at all that serves his own personal interests at any given moment.

In 2012, when he wanted (and received) Trump’s endorsement for his doomed presidential campaign, he spoke about Trump in the most glowing, obsequious terms:

Romney thanks Trump for endorsement.

But in 2016, all of a sudden Trump was a liar, a con man and a failure as a business man.

As the above video shows, Romney doesn't have an ounce of integrity, and shouldn’t hold any political position or have any public presence whatsoever.

Mitt is overrated. The fact is that he is just one of a million+ millionaires who thinks he is a know it all.

I think they mean FDR, not Trump. And yes, they would be correct.

“Mitt is not going away, Utah Morons are going to make him a Senator.”

For a minute I thought you had misspelled a word there.

Meanwhile GDP is over 4% and back awhile the MSMLSD was ridiculing that we’d never see 3%.

Wow... from the guy that tanked his own state and destroyed numerous companies by gutting and looting their resources.

This is the guy who destroyed Toys R Us.

His opinion on economic theory and strategy is BS
