I can't imagine Romney planning this line of attack all by himself, it's like the GOP refuses to acknowledge that sending the guy who symbolizes all that is wrong with capitalism when working class whites, even the evangelicals are the ones fueling this populist revolt is a smart thing to do. They seriously couldn't find another attack dog for this?

saints gambit posted:Isn't Trump just going to smack that down by citing Romney's refusal and calling him a hypocrite loser? With the Supreme Court nomination hypocritical statements on both sides happening and how little Trump voters pay attention to his own backassward statements (a la Colbert segment)... our politics is so hosed.

Trump practically perfected 'show me your birth certificate, now show me your long form birth certificate, now show me your transcripts, now show me your tax return' as a narrative to delegitimize a candidate. I'd be shocked if he fell into this. Also, who's Romney's 'we' in that interview?

The Nastier Nate posted:If the GOP openly ratfucks Trump out of the nomination after he wins a plurality of delegates (which won't happen, they aren't that stupid) It's hardly "ratfucking", you see it in state elections all the time. Candidate A gets a plurality of the vote on the first ballot, then all the other candidates' supporters rally around candidate B on the second ballot and A ultimately loses. It's even easier in a convention setting, since many of the delegates who are obligated to vote Trump on the first ballot may not actually personally support him.

If they ratfuck Trump, Clinton wins in an ABSOLUTE landslide (420+ EVs) and takes back the Senate and cuts DEEP into the GOP House majority. Then the GOP is left with a scorched earth.

"You see it in state elections all the time" doesn't magically mean they can give the nomination to someone else if Trump marches in with 40-49% of the delegates and get away with it. Anger at the GOP establishment is at an all time high and narrative is everything, the narrative will be that it's undemocratic ratfucking. It's far better to run with Trump and possibly suffer a defeat, then recover with an "I told you so" candidate in 2020. Because the only alternative is PYRAMIDS OF SKULLS, RIVERS OF BLOOD AND SALTED EARTH.

Rocks posted:Also, the Washington Post editorial board asked GOP leaders (Ryan, Romney, George W, McCain and Bob Dole) to stand up to stop Trump.  this poo poo is so loving stupid unless President Rubio is their actual endgame. The only people dumber than conservatives trying to stop Trump right now are non-conservatives trying to stop Trump. The GOP is about to commit suicide and they're begging for the GOPe to come in and save it.

Freepers are losing it on Romney right now. Funny I remember the right losing their minds defending Romney and attacking Reid for that attack... That's what makes Romney doing this so bizarre, it's like he just reopened a wound and all the old talking points are pouring out of it.

To answer my own question: no, Trump won't be trading blows with Megyn Kelly tonight:quote:The two-hour special edition of the impromptu panel, The Kelly File: Face to Face with Candidates, will take place Feb. 24 at 9:00 P.M. ET. That’s the night before the next Republican debate, which will be hosted by CNN in Houston. GOP candidates Ted Cruz and Ben Carson will appear on stage on the Fox show, while Marco Rubio and John Kasich will join via satellite.
