Santelli on Romney: "The Only Word I Can Think of Is Irony"

|

RICK SANTELLI: Well, I'll tell you what, it's a Mitt Romney...I agree with John Fortt. I haven't seen this Mitt Romney. As a matter of fact, the only word I could think of is irony, and i'll tell you where my mind is going.

...

In his [Romney's] argument against Trump and the positives of other Republicans, my comment would be, "What have they done that should make voters think that Mr. Trump, in all his verbiage, is going to not do something when they have been in power." Okay?

He brought up John McCain. Did he win? Did he [Romney] win? Okay?

I think that he is missing this. It's not necessarily what Trump says. It 's what people think he's going to do after he gets elected, and that is things that are actionable. Now we could debate what that is and I'm not going to tell you if I'm in favor or against.

I'm just saying that the political landscape that Mitt Romney is painting is in a strange, surreal sort of way exactly why he was rejected and moderates have been rejected. Because they talk a good game with high character and high morals, but they deliver zero.
