Romney’s old remarks about Trump weren’t the only inconsistency people noticed. Indeed, the Trump campaign quickly compiled a video of Romney’s notorious flip flops on various political topics, a serious issue that prevented conservatives from getting behind him the way they are Trump.
Here’s a video from a YouTube user illustrating the Romney flip flop…
In addition, Romney’s former running mate and current Speaker of the House Paul Ryan joined in on the hatefest, blasting their party’s most popular candidate in no uncertain terms:
“Trump knew the attack was coming, and set out on a media blitz before the speech to preempt the attacks.
‘Mitt Romney was a failed candidate; should have beaten Barack Obama easily,’ Trump said on ABC’s Good Morning America.
Tweeting to his 6.6 million followers, Trump ticked through a point-by-point rebuttal, arguing that ‘Hillary wants no part’ of him in a general election, and saying he’s uniting the party and bringing scores of new Republicans into the fold.
At a campaign rally in Portland, Maine, Trump kicked back hard at Romney, calling him a ‘disaster’ as a candidate and a ‘choke artist.’
Trump said Romney ‘demeaned 47 percent of the country’ with his infamous remarks on poverty.
He said Romney thought about running for president again in 2016, but ‘chickened out because of me,’ and claimed the 2012 nominee ‘begged’ him for an endorsement.
‘I could’ve just said, Mitt, drop to your knees, he would’ve dropped to his knees,’ Trump said.”
“Now, Romney’s vice presidential candidate, Paul Ryan, is Speaker of the House and chairman of the Republican convention.
Ryan this week condemned Trump’s initial refusal to disavow white supremacist David Duke, but he has reached out to Trump’s campaign in an attempt to forge a working relationship with him.
On Thursday, Ryan dodged a series of questions about Romney’s attack, saying only that ‘everything is fair game’ until a nominee is chosen.
‘I know Mitt feels strongly about this election and he’s going to speak his mind,’ Ryan said on ‘Fox and Friends,’ adding that Romney is a party leader who’s ‘worried about the future of the party.’
Romney and Ryan attended a fundraiser together in Utah in late February, and ABC News is reporting that the two met privately at Romney’s home over the weekend.
While Romney’s insults were directed at Trump, his speech was meant to light a fire under the growing anti-Trump movement within the party.
Many mainstream Republicans are going public in their efforts to block Trump from the nomination by any means possible and are vowing not to support him if he makes it to the general election.
Dozens of high-profile conservatives, from Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) to conservative media personality Erick Erickson, are using their platforms to make the case against Trump.”

Simply to hide their squirming
The establishment are so damn stupid. They were counting on the Republicans to keep buying their BS or they wouldn’t have thrown this has-been loser out. No one cares what Romney has to say. He handed the election to Obama on silver platter. I wonder if it was intentional and he was following orders. Republicans don’t care who gets into the whitehouse. Nothing changes for them, they still make millions, they still have power, they still have perks so what difference does it make. If they get booted out of office, they go back to a law firm, get a high paying job as a lobbyist or maybe a CEO. Don’t ever think a “pollitician” cares about you, it’s impossible.
The losers!
A very dishonest group of losers!
