Romney lost by being coherent. He should have just repeated "Wrong, wrong, WRONG! That is fake news!"

[@Awakeningspirit20]

As someone left-leaning, I wish Romney had won in 2012 because his victory would have absorbed and pacified the elements that would become Trumpism before they ever got to that point. Romney is basically using the same points here that Trump brought up in 2016, just intelligently and respectfully as opposed to having a complete meltdown. The Romney Administration would have gone in and done the sorts of things Trump wanted to do, but better because he would have consulted experts and figured out how to manage trade right... that is, if Romney was actually serious about keeping his promises. Having Paul Ryan as VP would be a lot like having him as Speaker; his tax 'cuts' agenda would have been pushed and may have even gone through. But the point is, whether Romney kept his promises or not, he would have been president until 2020 at maximum and Fox News would have been on his side and promoting him, making the Trump elements feel like they had won. This means a lot less fuel for the Alt-Right's news networks and their rise would have either been pushed back or eliminated. Obama's second term was a complete waste where he pandered to social liberal ideas like first gay marriage (actually a good thing) and by the end he was openly going around trying to force transgender bathroom agendas while a major terrorist network was taking over the Middle East. Those four years let all the hate about Obama grow even worse and culminate in Trump himself becoming president. So in my hypothesis, Romney going in with a mild conservative agenda, building up the military, and keeping the peace would have been for the best. A Democrat could have beaten him in 2016 or succeeded him in 2020, just with a lot less damage done to the national fabric.
