Him attacking Trump in 2016 was the most pathetic political event in American history


When he gave that speech attacking Trump just before Trump secured the Republican nomination calling Trump a "phoney" and a "fraud". The Republican establishment asked him to do it because they thought it would decrease Trump's support, but it actually increased it. Those idiots didn't realize that Trump was popular because he was perceived to be anti establishment and Romney attacking Trump was seen as further proof of that.

At least Mitt told the truth.

He didn't tell the truth, Trump was no more a fraud than the Republican (or Democratic) establishments. Trump at least pretended to be on the side of the people.
