To folks who are stating that it's an embarrassment of Trump coming to speak at commencement yet had not the same attitude with Romney, they need to stop talking and keep their head in the hole that they took it out from. Romney, the same person who approved of a similar type of healthcare system like Obamacare in the state of Massachusetts was not an embarrassment because he was the typical lying candidate that you 'ol timers are used to
I'm not sure what age has to do with anything.... I don't dislike Pres Trump so much for his policies but for his lack of character. And I agree with you, Romney is different from Pres Trump in many ways. Strong family man. No celebrated affairs. Man of faith (even if we don't disagree with the faith). Respected businessman. Respectful of others.

"I will release my taxes..."
"I won with the highest electoral votes since Reagan"
Denied saying some of the things M Kelly said he said
Would not readily disavow the support of David Duke, denying he knew who he was. - Evidence shows otherwise
Mocked a disabled man then denied it.
"I did not support the war in Iraq" - recording says he did before he didn't.
Claimed to have seen video of money being taken off plane to pay Iran for hostages. - Backed off. No video can be found.
Perpetuated lies about Ted Cruise and "mistresses" and of course his "assassin father".
"Three million people voted illegally" - no proof.
"Trump Winery largest on the east coast". - not close
Claimed he hand picked many of Trump University instructors- Executive deposed in 2012 said he picked no instructors
Claimed he warned about Osama Bin Ladin in his book The America We Deserve. - Not even close. One sentence mention.
Claimed 13 different times of meeting or having a relationship w Putin . Also claims several times he never talked to Putin.
Falsely Claimed Trump Magazine and Trump Steaks (among other Trump-branded items) still exist. Long gone.
"Nobody reads the Bible more than I do".
There are different types of falsehoods....mistakes and lies. I have only focused here on lies that are more character-based than politically based. The latter can be debatable and it's fair to give him the benefit of the doubt in some areas as he likely doesn't understand yet some of the intricacies of the issues. There are more but you get the point. And note how many seem to come from a stance of trying to make himself look better.
On another point, I don't know of anyone saying our intelligence agencies "doesn't spy on anyone"

That is a mighty broad, and insulting brush you paint with. Maybe that is where the age issue come into play after all.
But I don't think I have ever been compared to Maxine Waters so there's that.
