Consider Mitt's father role in getting Barry Goldwater's campaigned destroyed. Consider that Mittens was behind Evan Mullen's 2016 campaign that was publicly stated as being for the sole purposed of stealing votes from Trump. Consider how often Mitt goes against Trump for no logical reason.
Obama getting re-elected for a second term was very important for reaffirming his place in history. Who better then to select as an opponent than someone that is uniquely qualified when it comes to throwing a fight?
I didn't like Mitt, didn't vote in 2012. I can't remember how much of a fight he put up. Did he put up a fight? Or did he take all the abuse? Makes me wonder.
Was very disappointed with what they did to Ron Paul. They used similar tactics to what they do to Trump. But unfortunately Ron Paul was too much of a nice guy to fight it. But it did open my eyes to the altered reality I had only suspected before.
The "Let him die" fiasco was so bewildering to me. I didn't understand how "journalists" could twist his words so much.

The comments on the video are what you would expect. No critical thinking. Just knee jerk reaction.
What they did (the media) to RP was easy; they simply ignored him.
Ron Paul got the same treatment as Bernie in my memory. He didn’t fold like Bernie though.
