Some say 2016 was the year the country lost their minds. They did, but only bc they lost their minds in 2012.
Romney was the last chance for Dems (and really everyone) to get a non “extreme” Republican. And the signs were clear as daylight to even me as a 12 year old back then considering the runner up was Rick Santorum and that a large part of the base saw Romney as a RINO (or at least wanted someone more culturally conservative.) After two consecutive losses for the “establishment” wing, it was clear that the path would be open for something else.
If you preferred Obama to Romney in 2012, you really have no reason to complain about the GOP today.
