2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumMitt Romney is telling the terrorists, and those that hate America that is is ok to belittle &
undermine the President of the United States during a time of retaliation against our country.
He is a nominee for President and at the same time is interfering with our attempts to diffuse this situation.
And that is MY talking point!
Rather than looking at Mitt as an incompetent idiot, we need to look at the message he is sending to the rest of the world.... at this very moment.
Even St Ronnie did not disrespect Carter during Carter's unsuccessful attempt to rescue the hostages.
Shame on you, Mitt Romney! Shame on you!!
I don't ask for my threads to be kicked and rec'd very often, but dangit, that is what he is doing.
And rather than listen to his campaign's talking points being regurgitated all over the msm, we should be throwing this right back in his smirking face. He is making the situation worse.

Mitt is a candidate for POTUS - I am not calling him a traitor - I am saying he needs to STFU and work with this administration right now, instead of undermining our efforts.
As I posted in the OP - even Reagan stayed quiet when Carter had the failed attempt at releasing the hostages.
It is what leaders do. They do not undermine the President, esp during a time of unrest directed at the US.
IF Mitt did support the President out of respect right now, he just might score some political points.
No, not with his batshit crazy base, but with everyday Americans.
It would send a message that he is secure enough in his leadership skills that he is willing to let his opponent take care of this one.

(39,451 posts)Bush admin did to the Dixie Chicks for saying something about they are from Texas like Bush but are not like him, or whatever they said. They were a 3 girl band, not a Presidential candidate.
Their hypocrisy is disgusting, especially on this.
Boiling mad too!
