Donald Trump To Make Robo-Calls, Campaign Stops For Mitt Romney Before Election

Source: The Huffington Post

Donald Trump has been called in to campaign for Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, making robo-calls for use in key swing states as well as possible public appearances in the final week before the election.

Newsmax was the first to report the news, citing sources close the Romney campaign confirming that Trump had agreed to make calls to help boost voter turnout in Ohio, Florida, Wisconsin and North Carolina. The billionaire and birther enthusiast is also trying to overcome scheduling conflicts in order to make campaign stops on Romney's behalf.

Trump endorsed Romney during the Republican primary race in February. "There are some things you just can't imagine happening," Romney said then, standing beside Trump at one of the real estate mogul's Las Vegas hotels. "This is one of them."

But since then, Romney has been reluctant to associate with Trump, who caused a headache for the campaign when he reignited his charge against the authenticity of President Barack Obama's birth certificate. In response, Romney merely offered that he did not agree with all of his supporters, but declined the opportunity to condemn Trump's birther conspiracies.

Mitt's gotta get that discredited, racist birther-liar vote to the polls!

I almost feel bad for Romney. It's embarrassing how bad he's doing.
Just what every swing state resident wants:
For dinner to be interrupted by a recorubg this joke of a "human" telling them that they should vote for Romney. I think if I got a call from him, and I was previously undecided, I would run out and cast for Obama.

Only the nuttiest of the rightwing nuts (the type who still thought Bush was a great president to the bitter end, or think Palin is qualified) have any kind of a favorable impression of Trump.

Hahaha. This will come off like an annoying ringtone.

I'd rather get a robocall of "Gangnam Style" or a Rickroll than to hear that pompous asshole over my phone. I wonder if he'll end with a reference (plug) to his hit (flop) show by using the words "you're" and "fired"?

We've had lots of interesting stuff left on our answering machine ...

but he told me he'd love to see that idiot just shut his fat fucking face and he's sick of him opening his mouth.

Only the conspiracy theory believing nuts out there buy Trump's crap.

Have at it Trumpo! Is this guy getting paid under the table by someone at the Obama campaign?
