Mitt Romney and John McCain Denounce Donald Trump as a Danger to Democracy

[futurecurrents]

In an extraordinary public rebuke of Donald J. Trump’s campaign, Mitt Romney and John McCain, the last two Republican presidential nominees, denounced Mr. Trump in forceful terms on Thursday and warned that his election could put the United States and even its democratic political system in peril.

Offering himself as a bulwark against Mr. Trump’s march to the nomination, Mr. Romney laid out a precise and lengthy case against Mr. Trump, lacerating his business dealings, his erratic pronouncements on national security and demeaning treatment of women, minorities and the disabled.

Mr. Romney warned that Mr. Trump’s nomination would be calamitous for the Republican Party and, quoting John Adams, even suggested it could be suicidal for the country.

Evoking the specter of totalitarianism, he said Mr. Trump was amplifying a “brand of anger that has led other nations into the abyss.”

“His domestic policies would lead to recession,” Mr. Romney said. “His foreign policies would make America and the world less safe. He has neither the temperament nor the judgment to be president.”

Trump is no doubt starting to worry defense contractors, insurance companies, etc. that pull the politician's strings on the Republican side.

He could well be the wrong guy for the job, but not because these guys say so.

Silver lining on every cloud.

The neocon rabble have outed themselves for the scumbags they are. Romney is now on the shit list, along with all the other declared enemies of Trump: FOX news, Rupert Murdoch, the Koch Brothers, Romney, Rubio, the Bush Crime Family, Cheney etc. These fucking shitbags ought to shut their fucking mouths and sit the fuck down. Americans have declared their intent to rid themselves of these neocon parasites.

"Mitt Romney and John McCain Denounce Donald Trump as a Danger to Democracy"

That is rather funny to me, two losers and who is going to listen to them?

The American people are plain tired of the deals in the back rooms that have nothing to do with the American public. Anyone associated with Washington should be scared cause the good times they have had for years since World War two can be over. It is long overdue to have change in this country, instead of what is good for "I", as there is no I in "WE"-like in "WE the People", America needs some shaking up. GOP is so scared of Trump as He is leading what the American public demand, GOP is going after anyone who is part of Washington. I betcha Trump is going to learn much about how to lead America to become Number One in the world again, as we are not right now, hardly anyone fears/respects us. If GOP were smart, they ought to start ponying up to Trump than do some back room crap they are use to doing.

And Bennie Sanders? He is waiting for Clinton to be arrested by FBI. Biden going to make an entry yet. Wonder how many heads will roll when Clinton starts naming names, another shake up on the Dem side. They going to make it easy for Trump.

Regardless whether Trump going to be strong or weak, America needs change. I love my country, am glad I was in the military, I still have tears when National Anthem is played and I thank all the Vets who have defended our country, damn shame that younger ranks have to get food assistance to feed their families but so many of our politicians live like Kings and Queens.

This is the year for change for President and Chicago Cubs win the World Series.

You really have shown your intellect and command of the English language with your well reasoned post. By the way, who are these Americans that have declared anything? So far in all the voting, Trump has had 66% of the electorate vote against him. Where is this big mandate that you speak so highly of?

By the way, Donald Trump is the champion of your cause and has been paying off politicians for personal favors for decades. You are planning on breaking the process by electing a guy who has played the process his entire life. Way to stick it to the man, man!

Get real. You support that establishment loser, Rubio. You're bordering on having as much relevance as Futurecurrents. It's called an election. Trump has won 12 primaries. More then any other GOP candidate, Americans are voting Trump by a huge margin. Go read a newspaper. You're in denial. Rubio is a fuckboy who hasn't won shit save Minnesota, because Americans can see through the bullshit for what he is - an amnesty-loving, offshoring, more-of-the-same, neocon hack. And you support him. Which makes it evident you're a neocon hack. You and your ilk are halfway down the drain. Its Cruz versus Trump now, and both are alot more similar then that fucking halfwit you think would 'turn things around'.

Rubio needs to get out. He is just wasting space, oxygen, votes and everything else you can think of.

One of the few things Trump + Cruz agree on.NOT a prediction but looks like the FLA voters kick him out. Rubio turned traitor to the TEA party.....................................................
