. . ."Romney, of course, voted to impeach Donald Trump when no viable reason existed. He also allegedly told Joe Biden that he had to run as far back as 2018. Remember that this is the same Biden who railed that Romney would put black people “back in chains” during Romney’s failed presidential run. And does anyone else remember the Romney/Obama debates? Do you remember the first one where Romney came out great guns, won hands down, and then proceeded to tank the following debates like the 1919 Chicago White Sox? Romney has also written that America is in a state of denial and that:
President Joe Biden is a genuinely good man, but he has yet been unable to break through our national malady of denial, deceit, and distrust. A return of Donald Trump would feed the sickness, probably rendering it incurable. Congress is particularly disappointing: Our elected officials put a finger in the wind more frequently than they show backbone against it. Too often, Washington demonstrates the maxim that for evil to thrive only requires good men to do nothing.
"Romney is criticizing elected officials who put a finger in the wind? Really? Really? I’ll wait for the laughter to die down.
"And of course, there was the trial run for Obamacare that Romney put forward while he was governor of Massachusetts.
"Lee has been wisely circumspect about Romney’s betrayal, but Mollie Hemingway has a piece in The Federalist that you can read here.
"I was at the Utah GOP convention when Romney was running for Senator. I voted for his opponent, and Romney was forced into a primary. He won that, I suspect, because he is well known, ran the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake, and was at least nominally LDS. For those of you not in Utah, I assure you that Utah Republicans want Romney out ASAP, and there has been some talk of Jason Chaffetz running for his seat.". . .
The Republican party will never be able to accomplish anything significant until it purges what I like to call its “Romney Wing.” There is progress being made in that regard, but the wing’s namesake will eventually have to go.
