Romney didnt win, did he?
That was former Senate Democratic majority leader Harry Reids response to whether he regretted lying about then-GOP presidential nominee and now Utah senator Mitt Romney.
Mr. Reid accused Mr. Romney on the Senate floor in 2012, when he was running for president, of not having paid any taxes in four years. It was absolutely untrue and was discredited by Washington Post fact-checkers and others at the time. But that didnt stop the onslaught of unfair and inaccurate accusations and innuendos.
The Mitt Romney who ran for president in 2012 went on to vote for conviction in President Trumps impeachment trial. And that same Mr. Romney became the first known Republican senator to march with the George Floyd protesters over the weekend.
You remember 2012, right? That was the year of the last presidential election before Donald Trumps victory. And the way liberals attacked Mr. Romneys presidential campaign on opinion pages of newspapers, news broadcasts and in the media echo chamber of blue check-mark Twitter, has a lot to do with how the next election went and how this one will go. Their treatment of Mr. Romney was an inflection point for many on the right.
