National Review is getting really desperate. They are now pushing for two time loser Mitt Romney to run third party and give Hillary Clinton the election. Does National Review really think Willard Mitt Romney would actually have a chance at winning an election? The two time loser who couldn’t even win his or his VP’s home state against a weak Obama in 2012. Sorry, Willard Mitt Romney would be lucky to leech 5% off the Trump vote. He’d probably get some votes off Sanders loons too who hate Clinton.

Then there’s Mitt Romney. Mitt would win electoral votes — six of them, in Utah, where he won 73 percent of the vote in 2012 (his best state), and where Trump won just 14 percent of the primary vote, finishing behind both Cruz and Kasich. Nationwide, he would attract substantially more support than Gary Johnson, inevitably giving Hillary an enormous electoral landslide. Unless – – Mitt were to run only in Utah. If Hillary wins Virginia, Ohio, or Florida, it’s all over; she has a majority. But if Trump carries all three, Utah’s six electoral votes would be the difference between a Trump majority of 272, and a Trump–Hillary tie of 266 each. (Assuming, as I do, that Colorado will go Hillary.) When no one has a majority in the Electoral College, the House of Representatives takes over. Each state delegation gets one vote; currently, the Democrats have a majority of members in 15 delegations, 32 are Republican- majority, and the remaining three are tied.
I have no problem with the anti-Trump crew. But idiots like the eggheads at National Review are just reeking of desperate. Yea, let’s have Romney run in just Utah. So that neither Trump or Clinton get 270 electoral college votes. Give me a break.
Basically, National Review is profiling Mormons, thinking they will vote for Romney because he too a is Mormon. I don’t think so.
Imagine if Republicans fought as hard against Hussein Obama and Hillary Clinton as they are now Trump. Wouldn’t that be nice?
