A puzzling suggestion from Mitt Romney -

 American Thinker

. . ."Mr. Romney concluded his puzzling suggestion with this statement, in part: 

Our party and our country need a nominee with character driven  by something greater than revenge and ego....

"If the senator were truly a man of principle, not personal pique, he would recognize that former president Trump has, all along, been driven by dedication to the well-being of the American people -- not an entrenched oligarchy, and is opposed by a political force motivated by revenge -- and greed.  How many millions of tax dollars are to be expended by partisan prosecutions intent on preventing the American people from choosing their next president -- $25 million, $40 million?

"Sen. Romney's purposeful obtuseness to the persecution by prosecution of a former president by a political enemy for that enemy's political advancement, to the injury of Mr. Trump, should cause voters to press the delete button on any and all public comments from the Utah senator -- starting with his call, in The Wall Street Journal, for an anti-Trump coalition of 40% of voters to thwart the rightful support for Mr. Trump of 60% of GOP voters.

"Sen. Romney's stratagem to block the former president from being our next president may well suit the ambitions of the Despotic Clique but makes no sense.  But the past seven or eight years have made clear to the American people, Trump Derangement Syndrome is irrational in its origins -- and, thereby, a threat not only to the spirit of American democracy, but to national security.  Rallying round the besieged candidacy of Donald J. Trump is very much in the national interest."
