    Apparently the Donald has no problem insulting the same guy he endorsed in the 2012 election, calling him the dumbest and worst candidate. If he was so dumb and bad, why did he endorse him then?

    I also like the following quote from Donald regarding this:

    "The sad part about the world in which we live -- if you do well in television, you maybe can get elected to something. But that doesn't mean you're going to be any good at what the big picture is which is running a country," Trump added."

    Hello pot, meet kettle...

    LOL - Trump is just steamrolling the establishment at the moment. They are desperate to have him fail. Trump is the true Independent. He's the natural consequence of far right stupidity, and far left fascism.

    It's only a matter of time before people see him for what he truly is, a failure. He may be a good businessman, but when it comes to running a country, he will be the one getting steamrolled.

    Trump may have supported Romney but Romney lost and Trump hates losers.

    Yet you didn't call out the guy that insulted the guy who endorsed him. Interesting. Trump is absolutely CRUSHING the status quo politicians and they are losing their (*)(*)(*)(*)ing minds!!! Its about time this happened. When the left and the right is attacking the same guy and he is crushing both of them at the same time then that tells us that he is the right guy for the Presidency.
    Why they are so beside themselves the anti trump twits are trying to incite his assassination. Doesn't get anymore desperate fail than that.

    We all expected a much more capable campaign than the Mittster mounted.

    It would have to be very, very far left. Fascism is on the right wing of the political spectrum.

    Right! Donald Trump endorsed the loser, Governor Romney for president
    and this is how Romney shows his loyalty to Trump!

    Romney, by the way, didn't ask for Hillary's taxes, did he? No, which tells
    you who side he is on. He is on the side of the backstablishment, the same
    people he took a dive for in the 2012 election so that Obama could win.

    Why doesn't he just come out of the closet and endorse Hillary?

    Hitler and Mussolini were fascists socialists!

    Yes, and as Uber-Nationalists, right-wingers.

    fas·cism
    ˈfaSHˌizəm/
    noun
    an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization.
    synonyms: authoritarianism, totalitarianism, dictatorship, despotism, autocracy;

    [sarcasm]Oh. A book. Well, that settles it. Political theory for the past 200 years is wrong, because there's a book that says otherwise.[/sarcasm]

    Romney was experienced, successful, smart, and an excellent leader who did everything from being a successful governor of a liberal-infested, contentious bog like Massachusetts, to saving, almost single-handed, the Winter Olympics from its scandal in 2002. Oh, and he was also a very, very successful American businessman, too -- something that many Democrats cannot even understand, let alone achieve....

    That said, he was "a babe in the wilderness" in the presidential campaign in 2012. He should have come out like a militant, no-nonsense defender of Conservatism, taking Obama's nascent unconstitutional, deceitful lies and cramming down his throat. Instead, as we saw, Romney was a "nice guy" milquetoast who even allowed that lock-stepping, hyperliberal toad, Candy Crowley (moderator in the final debate), to inject herself into the discussion with more intrusive lies. And she got away with it!

    When you compete with creatures like Obama and the scum that worship at his shrine, you've got to be tough, uncompromising, and stand your ground to the bitter end. Romney failed. And now he wants to slam Trump...? Sorry, Mitt, but that's BULL(*)(*)(*)(*).

    There's nothing right-wing about totalitarianism and
    taking away the rights of the individual. That is a
    left-wing ideology like the democrats. They want
    all powerful centralized government. Us right-wingers
    want power to be given back to the states and to the
    individuals.

    Or haven't you heard?

    Only from you, and I don't know what your credentials are, and I suspect you are woefully uninformed. So, I'm just going to go ahead and continue to listen to the experts (political scientists) until I hear otherwise. But I'm sure you will keep me informed on anything else that changes in that head of yours.

    I think that it is you that just admitted to being woefully uninformed.

    You didn't just want to go with "I'm rubber, you're glue"?

    Make your case. You don't just get to say "because I say so!" and have that stand as a reasoned argument. Ironically, that's what a fascist would do.

    If you can't acknowledge the fact that republican
    conservatism is for smaller government then
    there's nothing to debate.

    You know that's not what fascism is, right?

    Do you hold the flag, the Constitution, the Pledge of Allegiance, the National Anthem, the symbol of the bald eagle in high esteem? Do you call yourself a patriot but believe that those your nation has become pathetic, weak, and a disgrace? Do you believe you need to make the country great again? That it must be taken back from "them"?

    Do you believe that security is more important than privacy or human rights? Do you believe that the government should use torture if it stops terrorists, spies, or traitors? Do you believe that government agencies should have the right to listen into the private conversations of citizens to root out spies and possible deserters? Do you believe that the government should execute those it deems worthy of the punishment?

    Do you believe that you and your cause need to find and expose those within your country who are a threat? Does this group have a particular name? Can you identify them by social group, racial group, nationality, sexuality, religion?

    Do you believe your country needs to have a strong military? Should military be our highest priority? Do you disagree with those who believe the military should be smaller to make room in the budget for other projects?

    Do you believe that women are just as capable as men at holding government positions?

    Do you believe that the media should have limits? Are there words or ideas that should not be expressed in media? Is this more true during war time?

    Do you believe that national security should be of the highest concern for your country?

    Do you believe in the separation of church and state?

    Do you believe that business and industry should get extra consideration in society? Should businessmen and men of industry have high positions in government, and strong connections with government officials?

    Do you believe in a strong Union, or organized labor? Should workers be protected in their jobs, and have the right to organize, strike, and demand more money?

    Are you frustrated with both the rich and poor, and think that you should be doing better? Are minorities and immigrants getting too much credit, and obtaining what you should have?

    Do you hold esteem for professors and intellectuals? Is higher education a worthy pursuit? Do you believe that arts deserve more consideration, and higher exposure regardless of their revenue?

    Trump is a phony, but Hillary isn't?! Hypocrisy, thy name is DEMOCRAT! :roflol:

    Bernie Sanders is the only completely honest, genuine person who's running for the presidency, but you hyperlibs are perfectly willing to let the Clinton Machine cheat him out of any real chance to win nomination. Hint: Hillary will be indicted for crimes against national security. Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders will not!

    As for Mitt Romney, well, he had his opportunity to win in 2012, but he let the radical Left steamroll him, and now he needs to confront his failure and understand that you FIGHT people like Obama and Hillary Clinton, or just go ahead and drop your pants and let them do whatever they like to you. I think poor, old Mitt still has his pants down around his ankles....
