Gentlemen, great to have you here. Using a godfather reference here they definitely Republican Party went to the plat rests today with mitt romney. Does that affect, does mitt romney, mr. Establishment, does that affect the Donald Trump Campaign . No. Not at all . Did he just walk out of a cave and figure this was going on . I mean, trump has been doing this since the summer, and mitt romney has been silent. Where was he when he when trump went after mccain, when trump was on the mat after iowa and they let him off the mat. Where is this guy been .
