Romney, Ryan, and Lindsey are still not supporting Trump. Although Paul Ryan previously endorsed Trump, he seems to be walking back his support after Trump's comments about the Mexican Trump U judge.
Mitt Romney launched a scathing attack on Donald Trump by suggesting the Republican presidential candidate would encourage racism, bigotry and misogyny.
In a candid CNN interview during Romneys annual ideas summit near Park City, Utah, the 2012 presidential candidate said he would consider voting for Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson instead.
Romney has maintained his position as one of the most outspoken Republican Trump critics despite House Speaker Paul Ryan attempts to unify the party with his endorsement. Trump has come under fire for his attacks on the federal judge presiding over civil lawsuits against Trump University.
The business tycoon has pointed out Gonzalo Curiel is Mexican, despite the fact that the judge was born in Indiana.
Paul Ryan called Trump's comments 'the textbook definition of a racist comment', Romney chimed in, saying: 'He indicated what he believes in his heart about Mexicans, and about race, by the comments he made about Judge Curiel. 'He didn't just say it once. It wasn't a slip of the tongue, which he went back and apologized for. First of all, he's repeated it time and time again. Second of all, he's never apologized.'
Romney said he didn't want to see Trump as an example for future generations, or as a representative of the country to the rest of the world.
Lindsey Graham also just came out and said that he will not be voting for Donald Trump.

Mitt’s father, Governor George Romney, did the same thing to Goldwater in 1964. When he made a failed run for the nomination in 1968 and ended up something like HUD Secretary, he had said he was “brainwashed” on Vietnam War by the generals. I remember at the time, Gene McCarthy said “Romney claimed he was BrainWASHED; a little light rinse would have been just fine”. Like father, like son.
Romney is such a loser with the biggest embarrassing ego ever seen from or former candidate. Yikes. Romney has some major psychological egotistical issues that he should be working out behind closed doors with a therapist. Instead, he family and friends allow him to continue to embarrass himself on a national level.
Romney is embarrassing himself. Trump supported Romney. Romney has ZERO class and is just a mean little immature highschooler. Romney is delusional and needs some very intense therapy. YIKES
Isn't that supposed to be 'Nativeamericana'?
Mr Romneycare to vote for a “libertarian?!” Ha ha ha. Like FDR voting for Goldwater — gimme a break! The volume of inane BS spewing from these pathetic sore losers is overwhelming
This is hilarious, no one questions bill clinton, Hillary’s husband for the rapes and sexual misconduct with women but Trump is unfavorable with women
I just don’t understand why he would be polling badly with women. This one loves him
throw some money at them
throw some money at them
This is BS, plenty of women will vote for him. They never mention hilarry’s massively horrible man vote problem either! Men do not like hildabeast.
The business tycoon has pointed out Gonzalo Curiel is Mexican, despite the fact that the judge was born in Indiana.
I’ll bet you a dollar to a doughnut, ole Gonzalo considers himself a Mexican. Ater all, according to the group to which he belongs, Mexicans are a RACE! Americans are not a race.
Kittens Romney, RINO Ryan and Linda Graham?
Quite the menage a trois they have going.
Hope no one gets hurt.
Is Lindsay Graham the Republican woman they’re speaking of?
Who is cashdaily?
“despite the fact that the judge was born in Indiana.”
To a father that died as a Mexican citizen, and a mother that did not become a citizen until 18 years after his birth. He’s an anchor baby, and his associations make it crystal clear where his sympathies lies. He should not be the judhe in this case!
“Ill bet you a dollar to a doughnut, ole Gonzalo considers himself a Mexican. “
Well of course he does. The whole issue Trump is complaining about is that this judge belongs to four explicitly latino ethnic associations including the La Raza Lawyers of San Diego, and that this affects his rulings on the Trump U case.
Trump used ‘Mexican’ as shorthand in interview and this is what has been seized upon to try to make it racism on Trump’s part instead of looking at the groups that the judge belongs to, one of which offers support to illegals.
This is like the “white folks” in Washington DC having their panties in a wad over the name “Washington Redskins. The Indians don’t give a $hit about the name. Go Trump!
Trump has a valid complaint. His enemies including the usual suspects among the GOPe are trying to exploit the issue in their standard PC race-mongering fashion.
I don’t think that the average American buys that accusation much anymore. Unless bed sheets and burning crosses are involved the BS meter runs really high.
After this election they think they are going to control the party. But if they give us Hillary I pledge myself to join others in destroying the republican party.
After all they didn’t mind destroying America.
