Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
The short attention span in today’s U.S. society never ceases to amaze. – No one should be surprised – although many seem to be – about RINO skunk Mitt Romney’s support of the Democrats’ impeachment effort against President Donald Trump. This opportunity is, after all, the very reason why Romney decided to run for that Utah senate seat at the urging of Bill Kristol and the NeverTrump Nitwit Army, which currently consists of about 15 people and Kristol’s pet cat, Mr. Bigglesworth. Perhaps we should call it the NeverTrump Nitwit Squad instead.
But I digress. It is important for everyone to remember how and why Romney was recruited to run for this seat in the first place, and the motives behind it. He joined the race at a point in time when things looked bleak – at least on the surface, which is the only place these shallow people are capable of observing – for President Trump. Remember that early in 2018 the conventional “wisdom” inside the Beltway was that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had Trump dead to rights, and his ultimate report would provide a devastating “roadmap to impeachment” for the Democrats, who were on their way to winning a majority in the House of Representatives.
Romney was recruited during that time by the NeverTrump Nitwit Squad to win a spot in the GOP-dominated U.S. Senate. From that position, Romney could then work behind the scenes to recruit other RINOs in the caucus to ultimately support removing the President from office when the House sends over its Articles of Impeachment. Once Trump had been successfully removed, Romney would then be in a prime position as a sitting senator and former GOP reliable loser presidential nominee, to become the white knight to take up the GOP’s presidential nomination and reliably lose a second time.
Make no mistake about this: The NeverTrumpers do not want a Republican president in office, and if they must be saddled with a Republican POTUS, they simply must have a reliable DC establishment hack like Romney sitting behind the Resolute Desk. These people have always been a bunch of squeamish, haughty losers who prefer to be in the minority.
From that position, they can sit back and cling to their ideological purity, and never have to worry about actually doing what it takes to win on issues. These people are pantywaists at heart and have no stomach for fighting a real political fight on behalf of any segment of the American people.
All of which explains the real reason why they so detest Trump: Because he fights. He fights with every means he has at his disposal on behalf of the American people. Even worse in the eyes of the Kristols of the world, in the process of fighting, Trump exposes the DC political hacks and nest featherers. That strikes far too close to home for the NeverTrump Nitwit Squad and makes Mr. Bigglesworth nervous.
They are right now absolutely enraged at Trump for exposing Joe Biden and his ne’er-do-well son Hunter’s efforts to feather their own nests while Biden served as VEEP. Why? Because these NeverTrumpers all aspire to become parties to such schemes, not to expose them. That’s the DC Insider way of life, after all.
So, what we are seeing play out right now before our very eyes is in fact the NeverTrump plan, the very reason why Mitt Romney was recruited to run for the Senate in the first place. This plan has been blatantly transparent since the day of its conception.
Anyone who is surprised in any way by Romney’s mendacity just hasn’t been paying attention.
That is all.
Today’s news moves at a faster pace than ever. Whatfinger.com is my go-to source for keeping up with all the latest events in real time.
What’s the point in loosing again?
The GOPE has always preferred being the “loyal opposition” than actually leading. And to be honest other than a few times they have never been able to lead.
This was an excellent article and a fact known to many of us who have been privy to call upon 5 decades or more of GOP governance.
Right after Trump names him SOS
While DB’s analysis is sound, I still stand by the fact that Romney has taken over the John McCain RINO-progressive role in denouncing constitutional conservativism. Trump will win reelection, and Pence will be in the driver’s seat in 2024, so it’s more likely that Romney will become GOP senate majority leader after Turtle retires/croaks so he can keep the conservatives like Cruz on the sidelines.
He’s on one of those self-righteous missions, inundated by delusion.
Anyone could beat Romney. My dead grandmother could beat him as a write in no one would spend5 minutes on him.
Is John McCain his running mate?
Romney is delusional if he believes he can ever run for president again as a Republican.
Outside of Utah, he is finished.
With any luck, he’ll be finished in Utah on the next round as well.
That’s part of the plan. Read the piece - the nevertrumpers WANT TO LOSE.
Re-read the article. It is not McRomney’s, nor his never Trump followers, goal to run against Trump.
They are thinking by having Trump re-moved via the Impeachment process, that Willard will ride into the GOP nominating convention of a white horse to “save the day”.
What Mr. Mittens and his supporters fail to realize, like Trump did, McRomney will at best draw support from Party faithful and that will never be enough to win.
The looser from Mass/Utah would not get 1/4 of the popular vote in a General Election.
Hahahahahahaha!!! He’ll get about 3 votes..
THE HELL IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT TWO FACED CARPETBAGGER HAS TO HAVE THE SUPPORT OF UTAH AND HE DOESN’T HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Demonstrates what a bunch of bottom crawling weasels many Republicans are. Now they know their political future is dead if they oppose Trump so are on board in the Senate.
Hey, this is great! First he will have to RESIGN as Senator then run......when Trump is through mopping up the floor with him, he’ll have to go back under the rock he came from.....;)
Let sick Romney try. Please let him try. Trump will thump that bastar@ so hard Romney could only be dog catcher for the local Utah establishment.
I don't think we survive another four years with a Dem Executive and House - they WILL burn it down.
The explosion comes when they institute gun confiscation and those rats get hunted down by Patriots.
No way, no how. Not as long as I'm breathing.
11 people in the country will vote for Mitt Romney.
Nominee for what?
