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.

When was this? I figured something was triggering all his meltdowns. Considering Trumps stand on human and especially child trafficking, it makes sense that he was involved in something he doesn’t want exposed hence the Trump hatred.

He’s right, he is part of the Democrat establishment. He wants to be McCain. A back stabbing weasel.

Mitt Romney shall now forever be known as:
McCain Milquetoast
That's what he is, that's what he's always been. Brand him, belittle him and move on.

...
number one goal in his life - to win the Presidency!...
...the presidential campaign of Mormon Church founder Joseph Smith in 1844: “Challenging Democrat James Polk and Whig Henry Clay, Smith prophesied that if the U.S. Congress did not accede to his demands that ‘they shall be broken up as a government and God shall damn them.’
Smith viewed capturing the presidency as part of the mission of the church.
Grease Spot Prophecy – Mormon Quotes
Millennial Star, Vol. 22, No. 29, (July 21, 1860), pg. 455; “I prophesied by virtue of the holy Priesthood vested in me, and in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, that, if Congress will not hear our petition and grant us protection, they shall be broken up as a government and God shall damn them, and there shall be nothing left of them – not even a grease spot!“.

He’s finally admitting he’s a Democrat and the 2012 Presidential race was Dem v. Dem?

“Romney joins The Pedophile Resistance to President Trump.”
What’s the evidence of his pedophile activities?
To: libh8er
Here's clue, mittens. You never were a republican. You were a Repugnant. Not Republican.
Carry on.
