Mitt Romney another RINO

hindsight:

If Romney is a RINO, what does that make Donald Trump?

Trump is RINO on some (even many) issues, and conservative on others.

Ditto Romney.

The all-or-nothing pigeon holing is for the birds.

I disagree. To be conservative I believe you must have at least a modicum of principled ideology. Mr. Trump has proven that he is rudderless when it comes to principle of any kind.

Dems made people think Romney is cruel to dogs and cheated on his taxes. He can’t seem to learn from that…

When what he actually did was raid the pension funds of companies via handsome dividends to himself while loading them up with insurmountable debt.

San Diego Free Press – 30 Jul 12

How Mitt Romney Drove Companies Bankrupt, Raided Pension Funds and Paid...

Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital was very good at making money for Mitt Romney. At the same time it loaded companies Bain bought with debt, borrowed even more money to pay dividends to Mitt Romney …

See, the dems will attack any rep unmercifully. Even nice moderates. Why dim bulbs like Romney can’t seem to figure that out is beyond me…

Stating a fact is not an attack and I ain’t no dem.

Romney got about 93% of the Republican vote from the 2012 Presidential election. And I think that he supports Trump on the border wall.

I have asked several times for a list of all the Republicans and have it pointed out on that list which ones are the RINOs and which ones are the real and true Republicans. However, I never got that list.

I suppose dodging the draft with the help of daddy’s doctor friend accounts for something quite special. It sure beats putting your life on the line for your country, right?

Mitt Romney, drier than a popcorn fart, still can’t believe Trump won at something he lost.

I still think we would be better off now had Romney won in 2012.

I agree

What makes you a RINO these days?

Is it because as a republican you don’t always go with the status quo?
Is it because as a republican you are your own person and know what is right or wrong?
Or is it because you’re not a follower like most of these 45 drones in the GOP?

I am laughing so hard my sides hurt.

Everyone is a tool in DC including Romney albeit a very well groomed and mannered tool.

Meh. If Romney were the R candidate, you’d vote for him, RINO or no.

What different/substantive policy ideas do you think Romney has that deviate from the rest of the polarized GOP?

The thing is: Flake, Sasse, Corker, etc. It’s not like they actually did anything, other than yammer and pout. For example, if any or all had wanted to say: The President needs to change course/behavior, and we’re going to caucus with Democrats/block judges/engage in actual oversight until he does–okay, that’s bucking the party. But overwhelmingly, these cowards expressed disapproval, while voting to enable the President.
