Mitt Romney: Donald Trump Won’t Win GOP Nomination

I don’t think that’s going to be Donald Trump,” Romney said. “My party has historically nominated someone who is a mainstream conservative and someone who has a foundation in foreign policy that gives people confidence that they can guide the ship of state in troubled waters. Mr. Trump over the weekend, I think on ’60 Minutes’ said that he thought it would be a good idea to let ISIS take over Syria and the we could pick up the pieces. I thought that was both absurd and dangerous and I just don’t think that kind of proposal is going to lead him to become our nominee.” Follow Jeff Poor on Twitter @jeff_poor
