Romney: It's 'Very Possible' Trump Wins, Clinton Is An 'Awful Candidate'

[RandySF]

Former GOP nominee Mitt Romney, who has been a frequent critic of Donald Trump, said there is a real chance Trump could win, calling Hillary Clinton an "awful candidate," BuzzFeed News reported Friday.

In an interview on the Radio Free GOP podcast recorded earlier this month, but surfaced by BuzzFeed News on Friday, Romney said that it's "very possible" Trump wins if Clinton has an "implosion."

“To be honest, it’s very possible in my view that Trump wins,” Romney said. “I wouldn’t think it’d be by a landslide, but I think he could win. I think he could lose, I think he could lose by a landslide. But, I don’t know which it’s going to be and a lot of that depends on what happens to Hillary Clinton. Is there a meltdown moment, or some implosion of some kind?”

The former GOP nominee went on to say that he finds Clinton inauthentic, and that she is attempting act like her husband, former President Bill Clinton, in order to gain votes, calling her an "awful candidate."

1. Yeah, what does Mittens know about winning presidential elections?

Last I saw, he lost by 5 million votes and only got 206 ev's. If we want advice on how to lose badly and then become irrelevant then we will give him a call.

3. Car elevator must have broken down today. He seems bored and frustrated.

[emulatorloo]

2. Seems not to notice Trump's implosion. Seems not to notice how inauthentic he himself is

Seriously, Mitt, you come off as fake as hell.

At least you are consistently delusional.

4. He might be 47% right.

Pot, kettle, and so forth.

[BigDemVoter]

5. Excuse me, but that whiny little *itch

doesn't have ANY room to talk about awful candidates!

[Zambero]

6. Well, considering his track record...

Romney indeed figured that HE was a cinch to win four years ago. Being an awful candidate himself, Mitt might have some personal insights into awfulness, although Donald Trump pretty much out-awfuls everyone else in this race.

[treestar]

22. lol

why are Republicans so hung up on what a thing is called? Why do we have to call it an act of terror by some deadline they make up?

[renie408]

10. He also said that Hillary could win in a landslide. I mean..

he pretty much covered all his bases there.

[The Second Stone]

11. Just say who you are going to vote for Mr. Romney

and we will take it at face value.

[COLGATE4]

12. Mittens calling someone else "inauthentic". Pot, meet Kettle. nt

[MohRokTah]

13. To this day, Romney doesn't think he was the awful candidate he was,...

and still thinks Obama was an awful candidate, so who gives a shit what he thinks?

[dhol82]

15. What an asshat!

[MSMITH33156]

16. He took his ubiquitous

shot at Hillary, but his rationale for Trump winning is that Hillary could "implode", which could theoretically happen to any candidate.

[anamandujano]

21. Repukes will be desperately trying to create a fake implosion like they did to Dean and Gore.

Thanks for the reminder. We will reserve the padded cell next to Trump for you.

[treestar]

23. certainly much more likely for Donald than Hillary

At least she has professionalism and self control.

[rug]

17. He would know.

[SaschaHM]

18. I see that RomneyBot 2016 is trying to pass the Turing test by being an asshole.

You can still tell he's not human though.

Meant to post this below >.<

[tavernier]

19. Another

lookatmelookatmelookatme attention whore.

Life is short, Mitsy. Get out of politics. You can still tell the servants to use the back door at your own house.

[grubbs]

20. You know what Mittens?

Tongue scrub my taint.
