Proverbs  12:15

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But a wise man is he who listens to counsel

The Fool:

Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan lost a race they could have won; but, people have to understand – the plan from the start was they would lose – that was why they ran in the first place.  We have to understand Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and Mitch McConnell are all part of the Bush One World Order and wealth distribution and they want Hillary Clinton to win so they can continue the program.  The slip-up was when former first lady Laura Bush spoke out that she was voting for Hillary Clinton.  Why do you think Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell have been riding side saddle with Obama?  If Ryan and McConnell were not RINO’s they would have fought Obama tooth and toe nail.

We have to dismiss Romney – there has to be a lot at stake for Romney to be making such a fool of himself.

Romney warns Trump’s rhetoric could lead to ‘trickle-down racism’

(What is trickle-down racism – does he know – he didn’t define it?)

PARK CITY, Utah — Mitt Romney warned here Friday that Donald Trump’s election as president could change the nation’s moral character and lead to the normalization of racism, bigotry and misogyny.

Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee who has been the most vocal leader of the “Never Trump” movement, delivered one of his strongest rebukes yet of Trump’s candidacy in an interview with CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer.

“I don’t want to see trickle-down racism,” Romney told Blitzer. “I don’t want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nation, and trickle-down racism, trickle-down bigotry, trickle-down misogyny, all these things are extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America.”

Romney, who vowed earlier this spring not to vote for Trump, said he was open to supporting libertarian nominee Gary Johnson. After working to recruit an independent conservative challenger to Trump, Romney conceded to Blitzer that there was no such credible candidate.

But Romney praised Johnson and his running mate, former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld, a former Romney supporter.

“If Bill Weld were at the top of the ticket, it would be very easy for me to vote for Bill Weld for president,” Romney said. “So I’ll get to know Gary Johnson better and see if he’s someone who I could end up voting for. That’s something which I’ll evaluate over the coming weeks and months.”

Romney made his comments to Blitzer during the annual ideas fest he hosts in Park City, where Blitzer is one of handful of journalists participating as official presenters or speakers.

A Mitt Romney Gathering Proceeds Under Shadow of Trump

by Leigh Ann Caldwell

PARK CITY, UTAH — One year ago, Mitt Romney’s annual donor and thought-leader summit here was buzzing with excitement. Half a dozen Republican presidential candidates – or potential candidates – attended to gain favor with the influential guest list of prominent Republicans and hopes were high for the 2016 election. Donald Trump formally entered the race five days later.

Now at the 2016 version of the annual retreat in this tony mountain enclave, the attendance is lower and the mood is serious.

Romney has been one of the most outspoken opponents of Trump and attendees, including many Republican donors, are like-minded and concerned about the presumptive nominee’s impact on the party as a whole.

In the past month, Trump has attacked a federal judge because of his Mexican heritage, called Sen. Elizabeth Warren “Pocahontas,” referred to a black man at his rally as “my African American” and called on Gov. John Kasich, a popular governor of a swing state, to leave the GOP.

(Romney has no room to talk – look like he back down in the Candy Crowley CNN debate – she made him look like a fool and he just stood there like an idiot.)

Even though the purpose of the gathering is to talk policy and big-picture ideas — including in forums with Arthur Brooks of the American Enterprise Institute, Bob Woodson, a community organizer working with Republicans on issues of poverty and Walter Isaacson, the head of the intellectual Aspen Institute — there is no escaping Trump.

At the end of a rare session open to the media was time for just one question. The question was about Trump. Panelist and author Kristen Soltis Anderson chuckled at the question and said, “Notice I didn’t say his name once” during the talk. She went on to say that she thinks it’s going to be “very difficult” for Trump to win. But then she added: “I’m no longer in the business of betting against Donald Trump.”

The line-up of speakers includes vocal anti-Trump Republicans like Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska, who is considering voting for a third party and #NeverTrump financier and Hewlett Packard CEO, Meg Whitman. Another attendee is former Trump competitor, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who hedged on his support of Trump this week.

But this is not strictly an anti-Trump gathering. House Speaker Paul Ryan, Romney’s running mate just four years ago who has gotten behind the candidate (but has also publicly criticized him), is addressing the conference.

And Republican Party Chairman Reince Priebus will hold a joint session with Anthony Scaramucci, a top Republican fundraiser who has joined Trump’s finance team. They are expected to press for party unity and to get behind the nominee.

In a bipartisan session Thursday evening, former Republican Secretary of State and Leon Panetta, Defense Secretary for President Obama, together urged people to support the candidate who can bridge the partisan divide, according to attendees who listened to him speak.

(Why would Panetta a Democrat be attending Romney’s soiree?)

This post originally said that Rep. Trey Gowdy would attend. He will no longer be attending.
