"Perfectly Lubricated weathervane" Mitt Romney Voting To Convict, so Democrats can claim "bipartisan" UPDATED

Weasel Zippers

"Weasel. He’s done. He’s so torn up with jealousy that Trump won and he didn’t."


"Speaking on the Senate floor on Feb. 5, Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, announced he would break from his party and vote later that day to convict President Donald Trump of the articles of impeachment. "As it is with each senator, my vote is one of conviction," Romney said. “My vote will likely be in the minority... I was among the senators that said that what the president did was wrong,” he added. Romney's announcement would make him the first Republican to support Trump's removal from office. After the Senate voted last week to bar new witness testimony and subpoenas for documents, Trump’s acquittal has seemed all but assured. The House of Representatives impeached Trump in December on two articles of impeachment--abuse of power and obstruction of Congress."

Romney, the weathervane



Why can't Mitt Romney please just go away and take Hillary with him? Please.

Breitbart's John Nolte has a lower opinion of Romney than that.  . . . "Let’s first dispel with the idea that Romney wrote this op-ed out of some pressing moral need to condemn Trump’s supposed indecency. Decent people don’t contribute to the far-left Washington Post, a news outlet that published a countless number of lies to sabotage Romney, that attacks the children of Republicansthat tells almost as many lies as CNN." . . .
