Eight months before the
presidential election of 2016 Romney gave a speech at the Hinckley Institute at
the University of Utah torching
then-candidate Trump.
Here are some
pull-quotes. You can read the full
transcript here.
“…If we Republicans choose Donald Trump as our nominee, the prospects for a safe and prosperous future are greatly diminished.”
[SKIP]
“First, the economy: If Donald Trump’s plans were ever implemented, the country would sink into a prolonged recession.”
[SKIP]
“His proposed 35% tariff-like penalties would instigate a trade war that would raise prices for consumers, kill export jobs, and lead entrepreneurs and businesses to flee America. His tax plan, in combination with his refusal to reform entitlements and to honestly address spending would balloon the deficit and the national debt. So even as Donald Trump has offered very few specific economic plans, what little he has said is enough to know that he would be very bad for American workers and for American families.”
[SKIP]
“A person so untrustworthy and dishonest as Hillary Clinton must not become president. But a Trump nomination enables her victory.”
[SKIP]
“Here’s what I know. Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University. He’s playing the American public for suckers: He gets a free ride to the White House and all we get is a lousy hat.”
“His domestic policies would lead to recession. His foreign policies would make America and the world less safe. He has neither the temperament nor the judgment to be president. And his personal qualities would mean that America would cease to be a shining city on a hill.”
Mittens AKA Pierre
Delecto spoke
with Obama Secretary of State Hillary Clinton about becoming President Trump’s
Secretary of State.
Twenty-one days after
the 2016 election, President-elect Trump invited Pierre Delecto to dine with
him at the Jean Georges Restaurant in Trump Tower. They were there to discuss who he would pick
as his Secretary of State.
Richie Duchon of NBC News
characterized the meeting this way, “Trump made a spectacle of dining with
Romney as he weighed his choice for Secretary of State, only to give the job to
Rex Tillerson.”
To say Mittens, a
treacherous RINO, is still bitter about being turned down for the job he begged
for would be a monumental understatement.
I have concluded the sole reason he sought a seat in the Senate was to
exact revenge for the humiliation of that dinner at the Jean Georges
Restaurant.
Sen. Delecto (Romney)
said Monday the revelations from the soon-to-be-released Bolton book make it “increasingly
likely” he and three other wafflers would want to compel his testimony in the
President’s Senate trial.
The well-coiffed
patrician who rarely ventures beyond his gilded barricades to mix with the
little people is intellectually incurious about Bolton’s intemperate
allegations. No one has seen the
manuscript. We only have the word, God
help us, of the failing New York Times whose carefully orchestrated “leak” was
timed to hurt the President during his impeachment trial.
This is treachery.
