Donald Trump Was Right the First Time, Pink Slip Mittens said "You're Fired", Too.

Donald Trump Was Right the First Time

Who Will They Fire Next?

Today, the Republican presidential campaign became an even bigger
circus as the nation's premiere birther, Donald Trump, stepped into
the ring to endorse another person with a self-professed love of
firing people: Mitt Romney. Before he decided to endorse him, however,
Donald Trump said a few things about Romney that were pretty spot on.

ThinkProgress' Alex Seitz-Wald has the rundown:

– Trump told Daily Beast columnist Meghan McCain that Romney is "going
to lose" because he can't connect with voters. "No, he's going to
lose. He doesn't resonate, you know? Or he would have won last time,
in all fairness to your father! He was scheduled to win last time, and
he didn't because your father outdid him. You understand. I watched
[Romney] make a speech, and it was all these little trivial
statements."

– Trump told CNN that Romney killed jobs at Bain Capital. "Mitt Romney
is basically a small business guy." "He walked away with some money
from a very good company that he didn't create. He worked there, he
didn't create. He would buy companies, he'd close companies, he'd get
rid of jobs."

– Trump slammed Romney's record as governor on ABC. "If you look at
his record as governor, it wasn't totally stellar. His job production
was not great at all. In fact, it was the third worst in the nation.
There are some pretty negative things with respect to Mitt Romney,
which frankly he's going to have to overcome."

– Trump chided Romney's $10,000 bet. "I don't talk about how rich I
am. Other people do. I don't want to talk about how rich I am."

– When Romney turned down Trump's debate, Trump was not happy. "I was
particularly surprised with Mitt Romney because he wants my
endorsement very badly."

And when the two met at the Trump Tower in September, Romney snuck out
to avoid a photo-op and both were conspicuously tepid in their praise
for each other afterward. "It was a nice meeting," Trump told the New
York Daily News.
