That's interesting. In 2012, After he took a dive in that televised debate with Obama over foreign policy by failing to so much as mention Benghazi, I became convinced that he did not want to win the race for the White House.
The RNC went all-in behind the one person on earth who could not run against ObamaCare, because he passed the same thing, RomneyCare, in MASS. That took the top issue off the table. Then Mitt tossed the second one away, never once mentioning Benghazi. Tough to win when you "unintentionally" bench your two best players.
The RNC must have been paid a LOT of money to throw that election.
Me too! He tried hard to lose the election.
A clarification about that ‘debate that Romney took a nose-dive for failing to mention Benghazi” - I remember it quite differently.
To be sure, I have been totally disillusioned by Mitt over his criticisms of Trump and never seeming to blame the lying and dishonest Hillary and her DNC over the Russian collusion hoax.
In 2012 Mitt totally demolished Obama in the first debate, so much so that the Democrats were nearly hysterical about it. Then in the second debate Romney was doing quite well when he brought up the Benghazi debacle and that Obama had refused to call the deaths of the ambassador and 3 other Americans a terrorist act. After Obama mumbled and then claimed he had called it terrorism Romney was about to contradict him when Candy Crowley inserted herself into the Presidential debate by siding with Obama. She claimed that Obama had declared it a terrorist attack.
This was a total lie and she should have been confronted by Romney right then and there. His lack of fortitude cost him the momentum and hence, the election. AND THAT, MY FRIENDS, IS WHY TRUMP WAS ABLE TO WIN IN 2020. HE WAS NOT AFRAID TO COUNTER ATTACK WHEN HE WAS BEING CONFRONTED WITH UNTRUTHS.
AGREED
