Well, that's certainly true. I remember when NY City Democrat Rep Charlie Rangel sponsored a Bill to bring back the draft, and both times it came up for vote, he voted against it. You could always rely on Rangel to give you a laugh, whether it was voting against his own Bills, or not reporting rental income from his Santo Domingo villa, to living in two rent controlled apartments, having knocked through a wall to another apartment, in order to make one large rent-controlled apartment from two, dropping his divorce motion against his wife, because she would then be able to testify against him when he was under Federal investigation (that of course went nowhere) to finally, leaving his Rolls Royce parked in the Congressional underground parking garage for years, and never having paid any fees for leaving it there. Gotta love that white privilege that black Democrats seem to have access to.
It’s DOA in the Senate and he knows it. It is a cynical move with no risk for him. He probably also knows there are 5 rino’s that will kill it in the House if it even comes up for a vote. Mitt has nothing but contempt for the base.
There are insulting gratuitous gestures, and then there is this one.
But will he vote to convict?
The Debt ceiling is a classic example.
As is the votes to repeal ObamaCare, term limits, Balanced Budget Amendment...
Yep. Somebody on this thread said Romney wasn't as stupid as crazy Liz Cheney, but he is far more destructive and conniving sitting in the Senate.
