Give us a break. The Meet the Press know-it-alls raised Mitt Romney's name as a possible 2020 primary candidate, to challenge President Trump. Wow. How soon we forget. In 2012, Romney had the presidency in his pocket, and manged to lose it. And who did he lose it to ? A guy (Obama) who was partially responsible for the horrendous Islamic terrorist attack in Fort Hood, TX, that killed 13 US Army soldiers, an wounded 38 more.
He lost it to a guy who reversed all the military;'s successes in Iraq (Fallujah, Ramadi, Mosul, etc), and gave it to ISIS, by withdrawing US troops in 2011. And who further handed it to ISIS, by colluding with al Baghdadi (ISIS) allowing ISIS convoys to travel into Iraq with nothing more than ridiculous, token "pinprick"airstrikes.
He lost it to a guy who championed TPP, NAFTA, held on to a 30% corporate tax rate, and all the globalism that shattered our economy, with US companies moving overseas. He lost it to a guy who gave approval to illegal immigration, with catch & release, sanctuary cities, chain migration, diversity lottery, etc. H1B visas kicked Americans out of their jobs.
Donald Trump's election showed that Romney had a big issue here he could have used as a club against Obama. instead, he cowardly backed off from it, and joined Obama's pro-illegal immigration recklessness - Romney fearing the Hispanic vote, which proved to be not a factor.
This list could be expanded, and probably will as the thread moves along, but just the mention of Romney's name as a serious candidate for 2020, shows how detached political "experts" still are in 2018. Just to illustrate further, they also mention the name of John Kasich (Mr One State).
