Romney considers endorsing Rubio before NH primary to stop Trump's momentum

[eric82oslo]

Reported by several news agents already. How important could this single endorsement be? Could it mean a shift in the general NH opinion of several percentage points?

A former Romney campaign official has already gone out publically warning about Trump being unstable and saying that there is no guarantees with Trump in the White House not randomly hitting the nuclear button in one of his now very famous narcisistic tantrums. Cruz is saying exactly the same, that having Trump in the White House basically would be a greater threat to national security than global terrorism. Due to Trump having access to thousands of nuclear weapons and terrorists not.

Anyways, let's not derail this thread. This is all about the much-expected Romney endorsement come this weekend or at latest on Monday. My prediction is that it will land on soil this Sunday for everyone to digest in good time before the primaries. It's been a public secret for almost a year already that Romney's favourite candidate this season has been Rubio, with Christie a close second. Surprisingly perhaps, he's not seemed too positive towards Jeb.

I have long suspected that he was going to do this, in fact I made a poll about it a while back:

I think it would be a BFD. I have always thought that NH is where you stop Trump and the way to do that is to consolidate the so-called establishment wing and Romney's endorsement could start that bandwagon effect.

Absolutely. Not only that, but Romney might still be the single most popular GOP politician in the country, now probably in a close fight with Rubio for the title (one year ago, there was noone even near him in popularity I think), and the epicenter for his most extreme shows of popularity are definitely Utah and New Hampshire. So it just makes so much sense that he would endorse someone a couple of days before these crucial primaries, considering how much most NH GOP voters truely feel devoted to him and love his persona, profile and accomplishments.

If a loser wants to endorse the next GE loser, then he should go ahead and do it.

I have figured by now that those true believers of Trump who makes every turn and twist to defend everything about him, has as bad or insufficient vocabulary as the big guy himself. It's just an observation, but it's quite interesting I think. It goes for at least 98% of the Trump supporters on this site.

But this is all coming from someone who doesn't know what charisma is, so I'm not terribly surprised.

I don't know what charisma is? What proof do you have for that?

If your proof is that Trump has charisma and that I deny it, then let's get some facts straight:

1) I've never said that Trump doesn't have some kind of charisma, after all even Hitler had some kind of charisma
2) Just having charisma doesn't mean that a person is sane, nor that he can't be suffering from a narcisistic personality disorder, which almost every possible expert on the field claims he is, with force. Narcisists and psychopaths do not make for great leaders, the history is plentiful of such examples, and Trump probably suffers from both.

What charisma? Are you talking about his hair? I didn't know that a piece of hair could have charisma. Unless you mean that throwing the Holocaust upon 11 million of latinos + the 40-50-60-70 million more who are either family relatives or friends with these latinos, as being a great sign of charisma? If that's your point, then Hitler had just as much charisma as Trump.

Yes, Hitler was charismatic, most people agree with that.

LOL!! You just dig deeper and deeper. Anything else? If you think Hitler was charismatic, you have the soul of a pidgeon at best. No normal human being finds Hitler charismatic. Frightening yes, absolutely, just like a modern terrorist leader. But charismatic? Sorry, that's just absolute crazy talk.

More great vocabulary. Maybe next time it will include proper spelling.

You're sure you're still not at an insane asylum? I would have alerted my family already if I were you. Something clearly is not right with you.

Even more unwarranted personal attacks with surely bring up your image, Eric. Just admit you were wrong and move on.

Wrong about what exactly? That Trump is a maniac? Every single sane human being would agree with me on that one. Anything else?
