Morphine Prince 109,682 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 “You have to give Donald Trump credit, he was able to bring a rhetoric and a style that he had perfected over his career to the political sphere and connect with people and become the nominee,” Romney said. “Despite the fact that I and a lot of other people thought he would not be an ideal nominee, he is. At this stage, it’s rougher going, but I can’t predict what’s gonna happen.” “To be honest, it’s very possible in my view that Trump wins,” continued Romney. “I wouldn’t think it’d be by a landslide, but I think he could win. I think he could lose, I think he could lose by a landslide. But, I don’t know which it’s going to be and a lot of that depends on what happens to Hillary Clinton. Is there a meltdown moment, or some implosion of some kind?” The former governor said he wouldn’t vote for Trump or Clinton and would look at the other candidates running to see who he would vote for. Romney also said he could write in the name of another Republican if unhappy with choices. Romney stated Clinton was viewed as inauthentic, and she was trying to act like her husband former President Bill Clinton. “You can’t forget that Hillary Clinton is a player as well, and she’s an awful candidate. People don’t trust her, they don’t like in my view she comes across as not being at all authentic. I don’t understand why it is she can’t be what I had expected her to be, which is Angela Merkel or Kathleen Sebelius,” said Romney. “There are serious women leaders who don’t go into an audience and put their arms up in the air and make a big guffaw kind of smile. It’s almost like she’s acting like she’s Bill Clinton and she’s not Bill Clinton. Nonetheless, it doesn’t come across well.” “I think she’s a really challenged candidate and the unfavorables numbers that she has suggest that it is not going well for her, so, she could lose this. Right now, Donald Trump has momentum, but he’s facing some tough headwinds, but Hillary Clinton is also facing headwinds.” Source: https://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/mitt-romney-thinks-donald-trump-could-win-the-election?bffbmain&ref=bffbmain&utm_term=.uc2B6oMlp#.yxxpKYW2P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whispering 18,865 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Here we go again...a woman can't put their arms up a smile correctly? These men really seem to have a problem with whether women are smiling or not. Funny...I never hear anyone telling a man to smile more, smile less, smile differently.

Funny...I never hear anyone telling a man to smile more, smile less, smile differently. Sexism, really? Nonsense! I see a lot of criticism of Trump's flamboyant gestures or Bernie's constant finger-wagging. Ben Carson's far-too-soft-spoken manner or Jeb Bush's ineffectual "low-energy" presence. Ted Cruz's face. Obama's ears! The list goes on and on. What Romney said is true. Clinton looks like she's faking these expressions.

He was kind of a tool who did w.e the GOP and his party told him to, even though he had his own skeletons in the closet that made his ideology actually more moderate than the core of his party I didn't hate him, but I thought he would be an ineffective leader and I still stand by it Anyway OT: His criticism of Hillary was completely left field and not even all that substantiated really... not to mention that it had seriously sexist undertones 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a terrible choice for a candidate, but Trump makes him look like Abraham Lincoln and Reagan together as a Republican choice! Anyway...thankfully Obama beat him!
