Romney Says He's No Longer 'Part of The Republican Establishment'

Seven years after running for president as the GOP standard bearer, U.S. Sen. Mitt Romney on Monday described himself as a “renegade Republican” and said that he is “not part of the Republican establishment these days.”

In a wide-ranging speech at the Sutherland Institute, a conservative think tank in Salt Lake City, Utah’s junior senator argued against “socialist” proposals being discussed on the Democratic presidential debate stage such as “Medicare for All” and free college tuition. He also lamented that “neither party is interested in talking about the debt and the deficit.”

“I guess I should consider myself a renegade Republican because I still believe that deficits and debt matter a lot,” Romney said.

The freshman senator and onetime presidential nominee went on to criticize several aspects of President Donald Trump’s trade and foreign relations policies.

" he was always part of the UNiparty establishment.

Yes. Trump has done more to destroy the UNiparty establishment then most give him credit. Romney's coming out party gives more evidence of that.

What else do you expect from Mormons?

I’m pretty ecumenical but the clannishness of LDS adherents tries my patience. They would vote for a baboon if it wore magic underwear.

Mitt ain’t sh!+. Actually he is so full of it that there’s no room for principles.

Debt and deficits sure didn’t matter to Mitt when he was with Bain Capotal and running some companies into the ground. But I guess as long as he was raking in the big bucks, it was OK.
