As a wave of Republican scorn washed over Donald Trump Saturday for questioning John McCain's status as a war hero, Mitt Romney joined in with praise for McCain and derision for Trump.
-snip-
Both men lost to Barack Obama, a fact Trump was quick to tout in returning fire toward Romney:
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 49 minutes ago
Why would anybody listen to @MittRomney? He lost an election that should have easily been won against Obama. By the way,so did John McCain!

So was Dick Cheney.
What Trump said about McCain is exactly the same comments the left said about McCain in 2008 I dont remember the media being outraged then
not relevant to the 2016 primary race.
Gotta say, Trumps comments about Romney and McCain - dead fricking on.
I second the motion.
...........................................
All in favor say Aye!!
The ayes have it!
Trump deserves credit for firing back at these frauds. Hope he keeps it up and neuters every one of them.
They can always join the democrat party of sleaze.
Watch the video. I didn’t hear an uproar.
Romney is a RINO, but Politico reported that, in the past, Trump donated $5,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
Didn’t Trump donate $ to Shrillary’s and McVain’s past campaigns and say in the past that McVain was “very smart” only recently to say “dummy”?
Stick with Cruz. Cruz all the way in 2016, as I believe that Trump is going to fizzle out. Any and all campaign donations, past positions on social issues, etcetera, will all come out on the debate stage.
But you voted for him, right?
Yeah, I know. But libtard loser Romney has no standing at all. And though McCain was a war hero, he’s been a traitor ever since becoming a U.S. Senator. Benedict Arnold was also a war hero. When you turn traitor you lose some of the shine from your hero badge.
Anybody wanna guess how many points Trump will gain from this dig at loathsome McCain?
By the way does anybody know how McCain’s girlfriend, Linda, reacted to this?
Trump donates to everyone because he is a businessman in New York and needs to get things done.
it’s a sad day at FR when the groundlings cheer a draft dodger for crapping on a decorated war hero under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, irrespective of the war veteran.
sad day indeed.
Anyone that would be upset by what Trump said about him would never vote for Trump anyway.
Trump is not a ‘Politically Correct’ person, which is good. However, he needs to learn where the line for PC crosses the line for insult.
I don’t like the guy any more than you do, but you can’t be allowed to crap on what he stands for. just over the top in a massive way.
Ronald Reagan made training films, propaganda shorts and stared in war films during WW2. He was one of our greatest presidents. McCain, the bum that he is did serve his country and you can’t take that away from him. At this point in time, with the situation as dire as it is I don’t think this is time for a spitting contest about who served and who didn’t. This son of a bitch in The White House is tearing apart every decent thing there is left in America and he’s about to give the mullahs in Iran the bomb. Let’s concentrate on the best candidate there is to stop what could be the end of us all.
+1

He may not be perfect, but he's doing a splendid job of confronting the left on both sides of the aisle.
Linda isn’t happy. If he saw Trump, I bet he would throw her purse at him.
