So what's funny.
Romney thinks T.rump will win reelection.
- Thread starter Lou_Kayge
- Start date
Yeah millions didn’t vote last election in 2016,,, millions more voted in the 2018 congressional election which was more people than in 2016 presidential election... In looking at the trends not speculation
Romney has no choice but to say that.
If he says Trump will lose, and he actually voted for him to be impeached and openly being critical of him, it makes it seems like he's actively working to help the Democrats.
If he says Trump will win, he can do all those same things and just say I'm being a voice of reason in the party but I'm still working for "us" to win.
He's positioning himself for a Post-Trump world. He knows Trump is toast.

And number three, I think the voters that are most animated in opposition to the president tend not to come out to vote ― and that’s young people and the minorities. They’re active in polls, but not necessarily active at actually getting out to the polls,” the senator said.
The man needs a new nickname. How about "full of shit Mitt"?
The idea that young people in minorities opposed to Trump won't come out to vote? When the Republicans cut back the number of public polling stations in Wisconsin in Atlanta who were the people that stood in line for hours and literally risked their lives to cast a ballot? It was black people and young people. And that was during the damn primaries!
Also, black people overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton against Donald Trump in 2016. Does he really think those same voters are going to sit this one out?
Worst of all, Mitt completely ignores the overwhelming reason why Trump won 2016 in the first place. Republicans, including full of shit Mitt, spent over a decade winning small elections so that they could control the voter districts. They also campaigned heavily in swing states that Hillary Clinton neglected. In fact they were so thorough that Huckleberry Hound could have made it to the White House as long as he had an elephant behind his name.
I'll still give Romney credit for being the first Republican to spearhead the stimulus checks. Also for being the lone Republican senator to support Trump's impeachment. he genuinely seems like he could actually be a decent human being, but I'm not giving him this one.

I will not be surprised if he does. We know how the system works.
Thats why the debates are a must-see...
Romney lol. The same way he thought he was going to beat Obama. This motherfucker didn't know why windows are closed on planes.
Biden is the Buffalo Bills of politicians.
This article is all hype and there is no real substance to it. All Romey, who has lost 2 presidential campaigns, said 3 things.
1) The incumbent has an advantage. Yeah that maybe true, but tell that to Bush Sr, Carter, Johnson and the 9 or so others.
2) Minorities don't vote. In 2016 Trump got about 33% of Hispanic vote, for the 2020 Campaign the eligible Hispanic vote jumped 20% to 32 million and Trump is now polling at 20% of the Hispanic vote. It actually maybe the minorities who take him out.
3) Trump may center his platform. This is just an assumption. Trump loves to talk to his base, so I doubt this will happen. Trump is a creature of habit and will run back to his right wing base.
The article doesn't speak to the anger factor. Basically when people are angry they are a lot more likely to follow through with action. Millions of people hate Trump and they will not be idly sitting at home on election day.

If that were the case. Then there wouldn't be an ex two term president (who won both the popular vote and the electoral college twice) by the name Baraka Hussain Obama.
The reason he gives is that he feels that young people and minorities who hate Trump won't vote and then in the next paragraph the reason Romney lost is large turnout bu young people and minorities. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but at least make that opinion align with the reality that you encountered, for him to say something that is not true.
He also says that Trump will tack to the middle - while every day Trump doubles down on his racist base.
Romney must have been high on Mormon Apple Juice because his thinking is just off base.
“And number three, I think the voters that are most animated in opposition to the president tend not to come out to vote ― and that’s young people and the minorities. They’re active in polls, but not necessarily active at actually getting out to the polls,” the senator said.
Basically y’all black and youth don’t vote but his supporters will

"Moreover, Romney might not be right on who will show up to vote in November. He lost to President Barack Obama in the 2012 election due to unexpectedly high turnout from young people and minorities...'
His number three reason why Trump is going to win is exactly how he lost,

I hate the narrative that black people don't vote. Every election, on my way to work, I would drive by the polls in Detroit early in the morning and see long lines out the door of people voting. When I drove past on my way home, there would still be a long line of voters. When I got home to my suburban house, go to vote and never wait in any line. I haven't waited in line to vote since I moved out of Detroit. I always voted late in the day. I could see how many people voted by the number I was issued. I don't think I ever saw more than 1000 in my district which is a very small percentage for the district. When I vote in an off year election, sometimes not even a 100 people vote. My wife always votes around noon and she's never had to wait in line either.

I'm not so sure. He has to know that he's done with the Republican base. Whether Trump loses or not, his base will still hate Romney. The GOP blew the dog whistle and now they've lost control of the dog. Trumpism isn't going away with a Trump loss, it's what they've always been. Romney may just be warning people they should vote.
Mitt Romney could have won the 2012 election...first term Obama was a compromise loving middle of the road politician that disappointed progressives (second term was definitely an improvement at least on the over compromising)....all Mitt had to do was be a little left leaning in his speeches and harp on populist themes just like Trump did....instead he doubled down on supporting the Tea Party....this move made more people come out and vote...Trump may indeed win come November....but Romney has extremely poor voting electorate instincts and his opinion is worthless
Didn't this clown ask somebody for a quick friendly ten thousand dollar bet or something?....this dude is completely out of touch

this is anecdotal
Whenever white vote surged GOP wins
When their support goes down it goes to the democrats
Also it takes a 5% rise in black vote to counter a 1% rise in the white vote
You can say Romney and McCain lost because they depressed the white vote

Blacks definitely vote more than Hispanics and Asians but some of that is because immigrants generally vote less. Most immigrants don’t understand the politics, it’s confusing and they can’t tell who is who and what is what when it comes to elections. Some are also more focused on their home country’s politics.
He is basically on target.
If Democrats don’t come out and vote on the level they did back in 2008, Trump will win.
The interesting thing about Trump with the election is he is more concerned about the Popular Vote than the Electoral College.
If he had won the Popular Vote and lost the Electoral College in 2016. He would have been happy as hell like a little kid on Christmas morning.
Trump sees the election like a High School election for School President. It’s all about popularity with him and his simple mind.
If this upcoming election he manages to win the Popular Vote and lose the Electoral College. His ignorant ass would be happy as shit, bitch and complain the election is rigged and ride off into the sunset claiming victory.
