The guy is a co-founder of Bain Capital, how do you come to the conclusion that this guy isn’t willing to do literally anything for a dump truck full of money?
he’s l’wholesome mormon dontcha know
I remember when conservative media got bent out of shape about ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ because the antagonist was named Bane, and they were convinced the release timeline was a conspiracy by Hollywood to smear Romney lmao
did you know that Mitt Romney gives 47 percent of his income to the Islamic Republic of Iran? google “mitt romney 47 percent”
🆒🇺🇲📠
You can be one of the most powerful Republicans in the country and all you have to do to get a lib’s approval is say ‘trump bad’. Is this intellectual dishonesty or just intellectual non-existence?
This is the logical conclusion of only ever participating in politics within the extremely narrow range of contradictory positions that the public is offered.
Fucking libs being like “Well I don’t agree with anything he ever said or did but by jingo I respect him as a person”.
Chapo’s whole “name your enemies” thing was very important for my development in to the burning cinder of hatred I am today.
Someone was telling me how great John McCain was bc he dissed trump and I’m just like my brother in christ he set children on fire from the safety of the sky idgaf that he was mean to the real estate buffoon.
“Well I don’t agree with anything he ever said or did but by jingo I respect him as a person”
Reminds me of Marx’s 6th thesis on Feuerbach: “the essence of man is no abstraction inherent in each single individual. In reality, it is the ensemble of the social relations.” Actions and beliefs are secondary and only incidentally attributed to individuals who, in themselves, can be good or bad even if the entirety of their existence negates it.
Liberal dems are an inch away from liberal republicans. Trump not following the usual kayfabe is their problem with him.
Liberals were happy enough to get their hate-on against George Bush and Dick Cheney when they were in office. Its only after leaving office that they got hagiographies and a proper white-washing. That’s instrumental in the “We may be facing the last election of our lives! Vote like your lives depend on it!” electoralist hysteria.
You need to purge people’s brains of the transient follies of the last administration in order to convince them that this time is the MOST IMPORTANT moment of their lives. We aren’t living in an era of decline. We’re always at a tipping point and only you can help please send $15.
That’s what a lot of them are, Republicans who got alienated from the GOP due to the neocons implosion and the religious right’s fanaticism and went to the Dems.
It’s not that. They were always an inch away. Obama himself admits that he would have been a republican when Reagan was in power.
Jesus Christ any more concessions and I’d think it to be satire
That instance has more concessions and projection than an IMAX theater.
That was the instance I made my first account on actually. I wonder what makes it so attractive to shit takes
it’s in the name. and also a mod team that’s very comfortable with fash shit.

My god. If these guys caved any faster we could send them to rescue lost thai children.
Why do they feel the need to do this?
civility fetishism
(if we’re rude to our enemies that makes us just as bad as them) + sincere ideological overlap (bourgeois class consciousness, racism, imperialism, colonialism, liberalism as diet fascism).Because it’s going on their permanent record if they don’t.
Hey Arnold, The Simpsons, or Recess?
My first thought was actually Nickelodeon’s Doug lol.
Haven’t seen it in a while. That tracks though…
It was a joke in just about every 90’s cartoon
Where was this person in 2012?
Romney was absolutely enemy number one at the time, and liberals were making fun of him because he called Russia a threat to the USA, if any younger folks reading this can believe it.
Honestly I think that’s a big part of why he’s a liberal darling he was on that cold war shit even before them.
this is super true, every time an article about him is posted on r/politics (which i still look at occasionally when i want to read 17 straight “trump is finished for real this time” op eds) there’s always at least one comment talking about how he tried to warn us about putler
I was very much not old enough to care about politics at the time and even I remember that
In 6th grade
You can say whatever you want about him, but one thing I’m fairly certain is that at the end of the day Mitt Romney had binders full of women.
He had binders full of corporations that presented as female.
Corporations are people, my friend.
Ive heard liberals say the same thing about gwbush. Its really insane
Mitt Romney cared about the average American
No, he didn’t. He said 47% of Americans are basically worthless.
I’m also not saying he didn’t attempt to make himself and those around him stupid rich, but that he wasn’t going to do so by throwing everyone and everything out the window to obtain it
Attempt? He did do that, and you don’t realize you don’t become that rich by not being a horrible person because you’re a lib.
🥰
I’m not saying he didn’t kill puppies with his bare hands for fun, but he did so with the intention to help out his fellow American countrymen so I really can’t help but respect the guy.
he did drive with his dog strapped to the roof of his car though
Patriarch in a family of sociopaths always seemed so nice. Can’t believe he had a basement full of corpses.
During the 650-mile (1,050 km) trip, Seamus got diarrhea. The Romneys were first alerted to the Irish Setter’s bowel issues when Tagg noticed brown liquid pouring down the back window, followed immediately by him and his younger brothers yelling in disgust. Romney stopped at a gas station to wash the dog, the carrier, and the car. With Seamus back in the carrier, the family continued on their way.
How are politicians real?
