- "Dishonesty is Trump's hallmark: He claimed that he had spoken clearly and boldly against going into Iraq. Wrong, he spoke in favor of invading Iraq. He said he saw thousands of Muslims in New Jersey celebrating 9/11. Wrong, he saw no such thing. He imagined it. His is not the temperament of a stable, thoughtful leader. His imagination must not be married to real power."
- "Think of Donald Trump's personal qualities, the bullying, the greed, the showing off, the misogyny, the absurd-third grade theatrics."
- "Donald Trump says he is very, very smart. I'm afraid when it comes to foreign politics, he is very, very not smart."
Romney praised the remaining non-Trump candidates, but he didn't endorse any of them. Instead, he called for Republicans to vote for whoever has "the best chance of beating Mr. Trump in a given state." That desperate strategy, if it stopped Trump from getting the 1,237 delegates required for a nomination before the Republican National Convention, would presumably lead to a lot of horse-trading and conflict at the RNC, a battle that would be unprecedented in the current political era. Then again, as Romney noted, "the rules of political history have pretty much all been shredded during this campaign." What's one more oddity?Looks like two-time failed candidate Mitt Romney is going to be telling Republicans how to get elected. Not a good messenger!
