Bush, et al. and Romney are still trying to broker everything behind the scenes but they do not want their name attached to ANYTHING.
Romney thought he had enough goodwill for being the previous nominee that he was the face of the Republican electorate. WRONG. Not only is he wrong and was trashed for giving a speech trashing our front runner during a Republican nomination cycle, he acted as if he was going to be applauded and encouraged by the electorate. Instead, what happened? Romney was ridiculed for acting as if his opinion mattered and showed that his ego has still not gotten over LOSING biggly against Obama in 2012.
Talk about being tone deaf. Romney seriously thought his anti-Trump speech was going to give him or Ryan momentum to run again in 2016. At this point, if Romney or Ryan tried to speak a the RNC convention, they will get booed non-stop. Even 2 former Republican Presidents will be unable to give speeches at the Republican convention because they are acting so shady behind the scenes because of poor poor Jeb. Same with arrogant Priebus and Ryan, acting as if they OWN the Republican Party. They work for us. They are so out of touch and bought by the Bushes.
I think your analysis of this entire steal situation is spot on.
I called that handshake the handshake seen ‘round the world. It was....the backstabbers, Rubio and cRuz, were exposed for exactly what they are. Lying cheats.
Another thing I’ve mentioned......when W Bush said he ‘didn’t like cRuz’, I said that was a lie....a chip called in....to distance cRuz from being the Bushie that he is. A favor, from W.
