Meet the new Mittens, same as the old Mittens.
Hes either at your feet or at your throat, as Clemenceau once said of Germany.
Always willing to stab another Republican in the back, even more eager to genuflect in front of whatever loathsome hack Democrat will be only too ready to double-cross Willard when the moment arrives, as it invariably does.
Willard Mitt Romney The Washington Posts latest anti-Trump bloviator shares the same first name as the most famous rat in Hollywood history. Coincidence?
At age 71, about to be sworn in today as the junior senator from his latest home state of Utah, hes already putting the blast on his leader of his party, Donald J. Trump.
Thats right, the same Trump whose endorsement for president Romney flew to Las Vegas to slobberingly accept in 2012, after which Mitt denounced him as a flim-flam man in early 2016 when Trump himself was seeking the job, and then only months later made a pilgrimage to Trump Tower after the election to beg President-elect Con Artist on bended knee for the job of Secretary of State .
You might say he was for Trump before he was against Trump before he was for Trump before he was against Trump. You cant get any more Willard than that. Hes flipped on the subject of Trump more often than hes flipped on abortion, or illegal immigration.
And now, hours before assuming office, Willard attacks Trump in the most rabid of the Fake News print outlets, The Washington Post, for not having risen to the mantle of the office.
If you missed the sanctimonious screed, dont feel bad. It was easy to overlook, in the Posts daily torrent of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Mittens piece was competing for clicks against op-eds about, among many other things, Trumps nihilism and this sad, embarrassing wreck of a man, not to mention the cult of Trumps personality and the frightful portrait of a man out of control or well, you get the picture.
In other words, Mitt is now merely another voice in the chorus, another brick in the wall. And he puts the blast on Trump in the same parlor-pink sheet that in 2012 basically accused him of driving a gay prep-school classmate to an early grave by cutting his hair in a childish prank in the early 1960s.
Once again, Mitt proves himself a victim of political Stockholm Syndrome, identifying with his captors. Hes not a battered wife, hes a battered RINO Republican in Name Only.
But unlike most of the other never-Trumpers, Mittens doesnt wear a bow tie. He wasnt born in Moscow or Nicaragua or Toronto, like so many of the other neo-con Trump haters. He didnt run a crappy little magazine that just folded.
He was the GOP candidate in 2012, for Petes sake, as he would put it. Youd think hed be willing to give a guy who accomplished what he and his father George before him never could the benefit of the doubt. But no.
A president, the wannabee president wrote, should demonstrate the essential qualities of honesty and integrity.
Honesty and integrity you know, like Barack If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor Obama. Or George Mission Accomplished Bush. Or Bill I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky Clinton. Or George H.W. Read my lips, no new taxes Bush.
Thats the kind of honesty and integrity that Mittens would like to see return to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Mittens claims to be truly heartbroken to learn from a Pew poll that there is now less faith in the United States among people in Germany, Britain, France, Canada and Sweden.
Oh no!
By the way, given recent events, how much confidence do the sheep-like residents of those decaying, immigrant-overridden gerontocracies have in their own failed governments?
Dont worry, though, Mittens vows to speak out against policies that are divisive, sexist, anti-immigrant, dishonest or destructive to democratic institutions.
Virtue signaling, thy name is Willard. You know, for a guy whos never taken a drink, Sen. Romney certainly seems to have an unhealthy craving to get invited to all the fashionable cocktail parties in Georgetown.
If only he had shown such backbone when, say, Ted Kennedy was drunkenly attacking him in 1994, or when Barack Obama slapped him down for speaking the truth about Benghazi and Russia in 2012. But no, when a pablum-puking leftist as much as glares at him, Mittens drops into the fetal position and begins whining, May I have another, sir?
But Mitts play now is pretty clear. As of today, Sens. Jeff Flake and Bob Corker are gone from politics. Ditto his old running mate, Speaker Paul Ryan. John Kasich is leaving office in Ohio. John McCain aint coming down for breakfast.
So theres a vacuum to be filled in the prime time lineups of CNN and MSNBC and on the networks unwatchable Sunday chat shows. Those Democrats with press passes want a Republican on their panels along with the six Democrats, an elected Republican, preferably, whos responsible, an adult, who wants to reach across the aisle and then stumble into the fetal position for a good stomping in the general election.
Paging Willard Romney. I can see the editorials now in his new favorite newspapers, the Post and The New York Times about how hes grown and evolved and .
Mitt still wants these Democrats to love him. I guess you cant teach an old dog new tricks, but its a lesson Mittens should have learned decades ago.
If youre a Republican putting the blast on other Republicans, youre the toast of the town. At least until youre running head-to-head against a Democrat. Then youre just plain toast.
The Last Rino? Or he wants to be.
He was the Designated Loser for 2012.
Playing the part of GOP opponent to the Kenyanesian Usurper to make it look good for the rubes.
“The Last Rino? Or he wants to be.”
Unfortunately I think there are a few more like him but they are “quieter”.
Apparently the Book of Mormon doesn’t have anything to say about speaking evil of dignitaries, and even though they carry a King James Bible, it is unlikely that they even read it . . . and Jude is way in the back.
Romney, Hatch, Love, Flake, and Reid all seem to have the same issues with never being trustworthy or consistent.
I wonder what they all share in common?
“I wonder what they all share in common?”
hatred for Trump and being paid puppets by the Deep State?
And I know this sounds mean but Mitt Romney must fantasize about his wife getting it on with another man while he fixes them dinner and does the housework. You know, a cuckold. He seems to love humiliation and that is exactly what he has gotten in the past from his Democrat "friends". But he licks their boots, willingly.
Then-MA gov Mittens didn't see "nothing" when you were the "neutral" drawer of names for low number license plates, and you somehow "randomly" drew your own name...
Excellent.
Yep and just watch most of the talk show’s all trip over themselves in getting McRomney in for a Trump bashing interview.
This is EXACTLY WHY it would have been better for the Dem to have been elected, the BASTARD Romney on EVERY damn TV show berating Trump and the MSM tripping over themselves to get him on the air!!!
It also just makes me SICK that Trump endorsed and rallied for this BASTARD to win the election!!!
You don’t want Howie Carr as an enemy.
Howie Carr nailed it.
Definitely his best ever! Whitey Bulger...pick up the white phone...paging Mr. Bulger...

Sure, low number license plates are basically on par with freedom and the sovereignty of the United States which, it's become blatantly obvious, Mitt Romney would gladly cast aside for personal ambition. No one had any idea just what a rat Romney was many years ago...oh, I mean no one but you I'm sure.
The answer to what they all share in common?
They all wear funny underwear?
Bada Bing!
