Romney rejects Trump judicial pick who smeared Obama

Slavister said:
Thanks for accepting that people accepting Trump endorsement have no conscience.

Is this supposed to be some sorta gotcha moment by you, because if it is it isnt a very good one.

My comment was centric to romneys opinions and actions not my own.

Romney embraced trumps endorsement when he was campaigning and post election he has shunned Trump.

Trump has been consistent in his positions, Romney has not been consistent about his support of them. This calls into question his sincerity and his integrity.

LOL, nice rambling pile of junk. You don't even paint with a broad brush, you use an industrial sprayer. I'd rebut this but I don't want to encourage more verbal diarrhea on your part.

There is no broad brush here. Stating values that the poster claims were GOP values that the current GOP leadership does not hold isnt broad brushing.

At least Trump promised to go after hedge fund managers and attack tax loopholes. Of course he didn't fulfill that promise, but that doesn't mean I'm going to praise Romney.

Didnt ask ya to praise Romney. Of course he wasnt going to fulfill that promise, he is very much like those hedge fund managers.

LOL, it's the definition of broad brushing. He doesn't qualify or quantify which Republicans he's talking about; he's talking about ALL Republicans - the definition of broad brushing.

He's not leaving office tomorrow, either.

You said he promised something and hadn't delivered. I was just pointing out he's still in office so saying he "didn't" do something actually he hasn't done it YET.

Get back to me in 6 years. He hasn't even delivered on immigration. The only thing he's done is temporary tax breaks for labor and permanent tax cuts for corporations who buy back their own shares and enrich their shareholders. Yawn.

Talk to Congress about the tax thing, GOP tried to make the personal rates permanent, couldn't get enough Dem support. Those corporations have also raised wages, expanded employee college programs, granted bonuses and hire more people; minor details, right?

Then why is the working age male activity rate still at multi decade lows, and why are median male wages still substantially lower than they were in the 70s?

What? I thought Obama had fixed all of that and Trump is just skating on his accomplishments.

He isnt going to deliver on that just like he never delivered on Mexico paying for the wall.

why is the unemployment rate at a fifty year low? Wages? They're growing. **** doesn't happen in a day.

Those unemployment numbers are BS. Campaign Trump knew it.

By the way, here are median male wages adjusted for home prices. Wages by this measure are a touch above the lowest they've been since at least the 70s. Time to break out the champagne! We have marginal improvement!

Can he successfully get Trump removed siding with Democrats, believing this will force Republicans to nominate him for 2020?
Click to expand...

1. That is the idea that immediately came to my mind, too.

2. Senator Romney was governor of very liberal Massachusetts.

3. Governor Romney introduced a health plan.

4. Senator Romney believes that he is a genuine moderate Republican.

5. If President Trump is forced out, the Distinguished Gentleman from Utah is no doubt hoping that Republicans will think that he, not Vice President Pence, would have the best chance to win a general election.

6. And, of course, there's always 2024 for a Romney comeback. (Remember the Honorable Richard M. Nixon's comeback.)

You mean when the GOP used to believe in free markets, instead of picking economic winners and losers?; you mean when the GOP believed in balanced budgets?; You mean when the GOP believed that it was immoral to exploit the bankruptcy laws, live like a king and pay no taxes -- essentially being a parasite to society?; you mean when the GOP believed in the rule of law and not, 'I may be guilty of obstruction but I can't be prosecuted.' That GOP?
Mycroft said:
Nope. I mean exactly what I say.

The GOP never believed in free markets, they've always picked winners and losers, they've never believed in balanced budgets, they don't care about bankruptcy laws

There are only two things the GOP...and the Dems, for that matter...believe in:

1. Doing whatever their donors want them to do.

2. Making damned sure the public doesn't know.

Glad you finally admitted the hypocrisy of the GOP. However, if you think Trump is somehow different, I see no evidence. His main policies are tax-cuts for the rich and corporations, regulation cuts with a sack of self-enriching corruption thrown in. That's pure GOP going back decades.

You asked 'If [Romney has a conscience], why did he accept Trumps endorsement?' I think what you said is pretty clear and speaks for itself.

I understand you did not really mean to undermine Comrade Trump, but your slip was just too funny.

Don't care.

This is about Romney. It's not a competition.

It may become a competition of sorts if Romney primaries Trump. Will you care then ? And do you care about Trump's lack of morals and the effect it is having upon our youth ?
