i have to pose this question. these crowds are similar to what we saw with romney. what do you think will be different this time. i can only think of two.
romney didnt get the evangelical vote, and obama had an historic minority turnout.

Romney has not had the Trump support. Hillary has never had Obama’s support.

Four million conservatives stayed home in 2012. Granted, you have some NeverTrumpers, RINOS and others who will vote for someone else or stay home, but that number won’t even come close to four million. Add a large number of independents and crossover Democrats and Trump will have a much larger total vote than Romney had, and in the battleground states that will be a huge difference.

Romney was a Mormon; sorry to say, but most evangelicals do not consider them “Christian”.

I voted for him, because the other guy (”O”) was twice the worry for America .. but I always vote.

There’s always someone like you on every thread injecting doubt into things you know nothing about. Romney basically took all of October off to coast. He had a few large crowds, but not these crowds 4x a day every day for months. Pay attention to the dialogue here, this has been discussed extensively for months.

Romney wasn’t getting two to five of these a day.

Trump has been doing this every single day for month after month.

At Trump’s events, there are frequently as many folks outside as inside.

Romney never had that.

Romney never pressed these issues Trump is pressing. He was a milk-toast compared to Trump. Trump is larger than life and has become somewhat of a folk hero.

Romney was nothing like this, and by no stretch of the imagination could you call his efforts and the reaction to them, “A movement”.

This is on a whole different level.

Were you born yesterday? Romney never got this kind of buzz. Not even close.

The difference is, Romney only drew comparable crowds at the very end of his campaign. Trump has been drawing enormous crowds for nearly eighteen months. Think his base might be just a wee bit motivated to come out for him?

Plus last time the evangelicals stayed home for the most part. The last 8 years have taught us all to be more pragmatic.

Careful, newbie.

Romney never drew one tenth of the crowds Trump has drawn these last sixteen months.

He had one very good sized rally at the very end of the campaign. Not even close to what Trump has gotten.

What's different this time? Trump didn't QUIT campaigning the last few days before the election like Romney did. Romney was a PLANT like Bernie was a PLANT. Regarding Trump, I don't think he would be EXPOSING THE HILLARY MEDIA CABAL like he has been if he were truly a Plant.

And now we know why Bernie refused to attack Hillary on her emails.. WIKILEAKS HAS CONFIRMED HE WAS A PLANT AND HAS SUCH AS AGREEMENT WITH THE HILLARY CAMP A YEAR IN ADVANCE!!!:

Instead of 4, it's now been 8 years of Obama. Add to that Obamacare and the prospect of Hillary being the next president..........

Big difference between '12 and now.
