Back to Videos Trump: Romney Begged Me For Endorsement, I Could Have Said 'Mitt, Drop To Your Knees' And He Would Have By Ian Schwartz Posted on March 3, 2016
Donald Trump responds to the speech Mitt Romney delivered Thursday morning on the state of the 2016 race which he used to lambaste the Republican presidential frontrunner. At a campaign rally in Portland, Maine this afternoon Trump talked about how Mitt Romney begged him for his endorsement in 2012, which eventually did happen.
"He was begging for my endorsement," Trump said Thursday. "I could have said, 'Mitt, drop to your knees,' and he would have dropped to his knees. He was begging. True. He was begging me."

And Romney did not win primaries by the large margins that Trump is winning them. Romney was shoved down people’s throats; nobody (except the GOPe and mormons wanted him.) As Romney destroyed the other candidates with his lies, their supporters did not move toward Romney, they moved to another candidate.
Somebody needs to tell that guy those old clichés no longer work. We now have twitter, facebook , IM etc. We are sick of that old racist stuff.
LOL. He just doesn’t care. That answer is going to play well with a whole mess of people. Perfectly handled and makes Romney look like the idiot he was today.
(FD: I am not a Trump supporter)
“Why is it that so many of the Freepers that refused to vote for Romney are now big supporters of Trump?”
Name two.
And in this case the media would be correct. Trump knew exactly what he was saying.
Establishment Politicians are prostitutes.
Did you cheer Rubio’s peepee jokes?
Honestly, are you thinking about Romney’s hit anymore.
I’m not.
What many people are wondering is what is this Romney endorsement crap.
...and when they see the video of Romney claiming Trump is the opposite of everything he said he was today - game over.
The MSM will be forced to show that video now.
Trump just stole the news cycle.
I was NeverRomney long before Trump was.
There was nothing sexual implied. Mittens was begging. That’s all.
“Did you cheer Rubios peepee jokes?”
No
What a class act.
I smell ozone
“And in this case the media would be correct. “
and you can prove this how, exactly?
He understands Ronald Reagan as well as any demoncrat. Cuz he is one.
He must really be laughing his @$$ off at how well he has people fooled.
That statement by Trump, crude though it may be, is the only thing many people will remember about Mitt Big Speech Day.
Mitt made himself a target for such vitriol by calling for this meeting, casting himself as ‘Our Last Hope’. not!
The first thing I thought of was begging, too.
Some people here have filthy, filthy minds.
Trump was great!
FNC is on in the background and whomever is talking is saying Trump said nothing in his speech.
You are quite right, and that is exactly what Trump meant. Nothing sexual. Think of the classic picture of the young man going on his knees to ask a young woman to marry him ...
