+Chris Vanoire he is not ev en a real businessman, he's a car salesman. and he was a voting me mber @ Bain Capitals board meetings, but only to front for Bill Bain as his straw man. He said everything Bain wanted, so that his viions at board meetings could get through annd he didn not manage anything there and he wasn't a regular employee here. Just nodding annd voting at board meetings. (though he might have ever gotten anything of the things, they wre debating and deciding about). Just ask people from Bain Capital who've beenn working there at that time, ost of them would not even know him. That he was a manager or smth like thathere is just one of his million stupid lies! Mitt Romney is not a businessman, not a manager not a C EO and not a person, who's supposed to know something about economics nor is he even a person, who has even basic knowledge bout economics, as dmonstrated in this debate. and if you call Romney a businessman, you're insulting every businessman and -women on this plannet

Easy Romney is apart of the establishment order and the kicker that made Romney so unlikable was that it was his State that instituted Hillary-Care first .Which by the way never worked there either . So Romney was a forerunner of obamacare before it ever saw the light of day . Romney claimed that paper corporational contracts equaled the same as living breathing people . That is insane ,and that paper contracts deserved the same constitutional rights as if it were a sovereign citizen . He was never with the Teaparty ,even thought he claimed to represent them . America got their noses rubbed in obama excrement for another failed fours years . Before they finally said they had enough BS from the Establishment DNC or RNC or their fake helpers the media source . With the likes of people like Candy Crowley and other minions . Who follow in LOCK-STEP . That is why America chose President Donald Trump . He is NOT a polluted politician he is a civilian who finally got in office without all their warped way is making deals .

[@cameroncrazie818]

It's really not that hard to figure out. Because people on the left kept crying wolf after every Republican nominee, when none of them (other than the Bushes) were wolves, and then the average joes on the right got so fed up with that that they got behind every word that Trump said. They did that because the left had falsely cried wolf (*lied) so many times, that when an actual wolf appeared (Trump), words like "racist" and "misogynist" fell on deaf ears. And a LOT of this was because of the media. Removed FOX and MSNBC because they are mouth pieces for the right and left, respectively. Networks like CBS, ABC, NBC and even every now and then CNN, in addition to individuals with larger platforms like Bill Maher, Jon Favreau, and Stephen Colbert started the crying wolf. Romney was called a misogynist because of the "binders full of women" comment that was taken COMPLETELY out of context. He was trying to hire women and he was telling people how he wanted more qualified women to work for him, but those networks and individuals with large platforms intentionally took it out of context and made it into a huge scandal to serve their agenda, ie: be Pro-Obama. John McCain was viewed as an old, cranky racist who would tell people to get off his lawn. Keith Olbermann had a segment called "McCain In The Membrane," which I suggest you check out. The NYT even had multiple writers allege that McCain had an affair with a lobbyist, and when the lobbyist threatened to file a lawsuit, the editor issued an apology and saying that it wasn't true. They would have NEVER done something like that to Obama, or any Democrat for that matter. And the funniest part of all of this? Once that nominee loses or is no longer in office, they are viewed as decent. Notice how many liberal media members and citizens now think that Romney and McCain are decent guys? FRAUDS! The lot of them. When they were running they were tarred and feathered, and if they ran again in 2020 the same liberals that think they're decent would flip-flop and view them as evil. If Marco Rubio or John Kasich were the nominee, the media would've slanted the news against them and people would be crying that they're racist and hate women. Lesson learned, don't lie or blatantly call every Republican nominee the wolf, because the majority of them are NOT wolves, and if you keep doing that and an ACTUAL wolf comes along, the undecided voters in the swing states will not pay attention.

[@derrickwilliamson5843]

M Azzopardi sir I hope that you're smart enough to know that trump was not voted in office he was placed in office ! and all of this Russia messing with the election is all a diversion to keep people from even questioning the authenticity of his presidency the people that voted for Donald Trump was at his actual inauguration speech and as you can see that was not enough people to fill Madison Square Garden oh and the excuse for the low numbers was owed they had jobs that they had to go to every other president that had people show up in his inauguration by the hundreds of thousands had jobs but they still chose to come and support the person that they wrote it for this is not a time for us to be naive about what went down here and another thing and this is a little trivia for you do you know that every president from George Washington to President Obama to Donald Trump himself in every other president that there ever was in the United States are all related to Queen Elizabeth? our votes have never counted and how they keep us from keeping an eye on the ball is by division even the very word of God says a kingdom that is divided will never stand we will never know the truth as long as we are divided this was the very reason why they came up with a two party system to keep us divided

Hes a succesful con man, failed everything else hes attempted but as a confidence man hes shrewd and calculated. Im sure youll respong to me angrily, if at allp, but thats proof of your confidence in a man who has undelivered on every level. And logically soeaking the gop has to have a0 representative that shares yours and Trumps positions but will not come with the whinning, divisiveness a0nd absolute incompetence trump does. Its really a shame because Romney here demonstrates my point again and again then over again. No grandstanding or pandering to the discontent that he has purposely created. I like to think im open minded, very much so. I think some things liberals do and say are a bit much but again given the alternative it should be a no brainer who is best suited to lead the country. Trump literally ran for president as a PR stunt to sell books and renegotiate his nbc contract. But hes such a good conman that he won. Its just sad that we fight all the time. It doesnt have to be like this. But keeping it like this benefits trump. He has no plans of stopping it and i dont think if he loses he'll concede. He'll litigate the hell out of it and disrupt us even more than we are.

[@reelspilltv]

Mitt Romey really did not say WHAT he would do to CREATE JOBS. What's the big secret. Obama is more open and honest.

[@MsAwesomeZebra]

I actually think the monitor did a good job with the difficult format.

who is watching this in November 2020?

[@Reuel_Jaramilla]

Bro if only this is how the trump/Biden debate went they would get a question from people in the audience I would love to see how they would answer.

[@mizutani7864]

That’s how the next debate is set up to be, in a town hall setting. Now that Trump contracted ‘ol Rona though I wonder how it will work out.

[@youngatom1055]

Obama is really a good debator with concurrent brainstorming and creativity, He deserved presidency.

[@danielleia8361]

Dear president thank you for serving honorable.

[@paulmaxwel7332]

Romney is a brilliant guy, he should have run for presidency after Obama

[@TitanicBismarck1987]

Both did a good job but Governor Romney cut President Obama off a number of times when he was trying to answer Governor Romney's Questions.

[@kennymukanzu2198]

Please trump learn something from Obama and Romney debate...why does trump always fail to answer the question whether he can accept the results of elections if he loses? someone kindly answer.

[@Faltor895]

Can the Democrats accept having a fair election?

[@clearskies64]

it seems that romney never explains HOW he's gunna do things, just what he's gunna do. And there's SO MUCH wrong with the keystone pipeline i wont even BEGIN.

[@lcelce9865]

It is time for the honest, pragmatic, hard-working, kind, polite, people inside USA, Libya, Isreal, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Palestinians, & the world to take over our respective countries. We need to lead, govern, and represent ourselves.

[@sailorforlifebestti3366]

This seems a lifetime away… we now have Trump rambling old man.

[@Faltor895]

Trump accomplished a lot of good things. Much more than Obama.

[@gmeds2186]

How did the US get Trump to Presidency? Romney could have been a better match to Biden
