Poll Suggests Romney Denouncement Helped Donald Trump



Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney delivered an impassioned speech last week blasting Donald Trump as a “fraud” who would hand the White House to Hillary Clinton.


But a new poll finds that the 2012 GOP nominee’s attacks might have helped Trump more than hurt him, at least with Republican voters tasked with choosing this year's nominee.

The Morning Consult survey found 31% of registered GOP voters are more likely to vote for Trump given Romney’s speech, while 20% are less likely. Another 43% said it didn’t have an impact either way.

I can only guess that Romney trashed Trump for political gain of some sort...
The move backfired big time (which I predicted it would) and
essentially became a huge endorsement of The Donald..
Mitt has rendered himself officially irrelevant...
I used to like him, too...
I believed that he was a man of integrity...

Yeah, Mitt had me fooled too. Integrity. Likeability. Leadership. Now he is just an empty suit.
