A Mitt Romney Comeback?

Romney himself has become one of Trump’s most vocal detractors inside the party. “He’s someone to whom civility means a lot. The whole Trump thing really bothers him,” a close Romney adviser told me — and some Romney-ites are only too happy to talk up the prospect of their man jumping into the race if the Establishment fails to stop Trump, whose support in Iowa and New Hampshire is currently greater than Jeb Bush's, Scott Walker's, Marco Rubio's, Chris Christie's, and John Kasich's combined.

Romney made a special flight to Las Vegas during the 2012 campaign to accept Trump's endorsement, and commissioned him to do a film for the convention.

This was all after Trump came out as a tinfoil hat, racist birther.

Willard was more than happy to wallow in the mud with Donald when he thought it would help him defeat a black guy.
