I don't think I've ever seen a more apt application of the old "keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer" adage than Trump wooing Romney. Is Mitt that desperate? Does Trump have a tape of Romney grabbing the 47% by the pussy? This is a guy who staged a press conference out of nowhere to bash and belittle Trump up one side and down the other. Trump's response to that was to claim that Romney would've "dropped to his knees" for a buck in 2012. I guess now we know whose version was closer to the truth! ![Big Grin Big Grin](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Quote:And Romney addressed reporters in the lobby about the dinner, where he said he had a "wonderful evening" with Trump.
"We had another discussion about affairs throughout the world and these discussions I have had with him have been enlightening and interesting and engaging. I have enjoyed them very, very much," he said.
He added: "By the way, it's not easy winning. I know that myself. He did something I tried to do and was unsuccessful in accomplishing. He won the general election. And he continues with a message of inclusion and bringing people together and his vision is something which obviously connected with the American people in a very powerful way."
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
