Romney Predicts 4 More Years for Trump

Last edited Sun Jun 10, 2018, 02:33 PM - Edit history (1)

Source: U.S. News retell of AP

PARK CITY, Utah (AP) — He once called Donald Trump "a con man," but Mitt Romney on Thursday night predicted that Trump would "easily" win his party's presidential nomination in 2020 and "solidly" win a second term.

Romney, the GOP's failed 2012 presidential nominee from Massachusetts, now a Republican Senate candidate in Utah, made the prediction as he welcomed dozens of high-profile business and political leaders to a mountainside retreat in Utah Thursday night. As he has every year since 2012, Romney played host to an invitation-only summit focused on the future of American leadership at home and abroad.

The future, he predicted, would feature Trump as America's leader at least for another six years.

"I think that not just because of the strong economy and the fact that people are going to see increasingly rising wages," Romney said, "but I think it's also true because I think our Democrat friends are likely to nominate someone who is really out of the mainstream of American thought and will make it easier for a president who's presiding over a growing economy."

Yeah, he was right about one thing: Russia. He rightly identified Russia as the most pressing threat to national security during the 2012 campaign. He was widely mocked at the time, but he turned out to be right.

Doesn't change anything else about him, of course. But like I said, give the devil his due.

Romney is a creature of the modern GOP- a liar and a fool beholden to large corporations and the very wealthy.


How could he be anything but a liar? Republicans have such terrible policies they must lie or hatemonger to defend them. That was where the takers line came from.


Goodbye Mitt, you piece of sh*t. Win your UT Senate seat if you will, but stop polluting the airwaves with your GOP propaganda drivel.

… speaking to the Utah Republicans, per his latest polling. He is correct about the Party Nomination part - Republicans obviously do not care about morality or preserving our American heritage. The "mainstream of American thought" belongs to the Democrats, who saw Hillary Clinton win the vote by a comfortable margin.

Mitt also predicted he would be elected, so he needs a new crystal ball.

Mitt has public dinner with Trump (where no one can sit in on the meeting).

Trump nominates Sacgs/ Bain guy, Jay Clayton, to be head of SEC.

HAAS sues Clayton and Trump to block nomination; but Clerk of D.C. District Court refuses to put case on docket until 3 weeks after case is confirmed.

Case is marked "F-Deck"

Doug Kelley apologizes and names Paul Traub as eToys fraud, partner of Dreier and controller of Tom Petters Ponzi

someone who tries not to ruffle Republican feathers.

Democrats could learn how to do bipartisanship from Republicans:

Say "This is what they people want and I'm going to do it. You can vote with me or explain to your constituents why you screwed them," and then just do it.

If you don't have enough votes to do it, you run the next election on getting rid of Republicans who obstructed what you wanted to do.

He wants to establish himself in the Senate, and subsequently run in 2024 against the Dem nominee. He has a better chance of winning if he's running against a non-incumbent, which is why he's pandering here. He'd sell all us out to get another shot at the Golden Ring.

Honestly, his fading political aspirations are kind of pathetic. What he's willing to sacrifice in his path to his goal (our basic democracy and our world standing) disgust me.
