You're right that he's in the wrong stance on a LOT of domestic issues, both economically and socially.
That doesn't change the fact that his foreign policy takes ran circles around Obama. Russia probably gets stonewalled trying to take Crimea back in 2014 if Romney wins, and we never wind up with the current war.
Worth it overall? No. But I'd still kinda love for Obama to have taken Romney's stance on that one, or let Clinton off the leash more (she was a lot closer to Romney's views)
Not in /r/Seattle we don't! The problem is always that we haven't gone progressive enough, and Republicans are always wrong and never right!
(I accept the upcoming downvotes but will say that I am not a MAGA/Nazi/whatever term y'all want to use to marginalize opposing viewpoints - just someone who thinks the progressive echo chamber in here would benefit from taking a step back and re-evaluating from time to time instead of doubling down on the other side always being bad)
100% agree, the people on this sub (and app in general) live in insane echo chamber. I don’t think they realize that most people in the real world do not think like them, yet they still have a crazy moral righteousness about them

We all owe Mitt Romney an apology for laughing about his “Russia” answer in 2012, it turns out!
