This is how you got Trump: Do any reporters remember how they covered candidate Mitt Romney?

Anyone worried about President Trump’s “gaffes” during his visit must be aware that the press’s character assassination of Mitt Romney in 2012 laid the groundwork for the backlash that was Donald Trump’s candidacy and eventual victory.

Speaking of the media, The Atlantic’s Rosie Gray pointed out that Romney’s gaffes now seem “quaint.”
