Romney boils with loathing for Trump's choice of running mate, J.D. Vance

Need a little convincing about the worthiness of J.D. Vance as President Trump's running mate?

Look no further than Sen. Mitt Romney's boiling hate of the guy.

So much for civility. So much for Senate congeniality. That's a fellow Republican Senator of his, with whom he's now served in the Upper House for three years and he couldn't manage to muster a courteous word for his entry three years ago, let alone just shut up taking granny's advice that if you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all. What a welcome that was for Vance from his fellow Republican.

Recall that Rep. Paul Ryan, back before he went the #neverTrump route, once said that Barney Frank, a far-left Democrat, was the most helpful tutor to him in showing him how to understand the U.S. budget process.

But Mittens? Just insults at the gate as Vance entered, derived from his crazed hatred of Donald Trump, who endorsed him. "How do you sit next to him at lunch?" Romney fulminated to The Atlantic. Based on the text in the tweet, he also seems to have told Vance he'd never amount to anything.

Really?

Romney had his son collect bribe money from Burisma in Ukraine. Pelosi’s son, Biden’s son and McConnell’s friend all were collecting bribe money.

“ He decided to challenge incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy, who was seeking reelection to a sixth term. Political pundits viewed Kennedy as vulnerable that year, in part because of the unpopularity of the Democratic Congress as a whole, and in part because this was Kennedy’s first election since the William Kennedy Smith trial in Florida, in which Kennedy’s reputation had suffered.[118][119][120] Romney changed his affiliation to Republican in October 1993”

Anyone know why Tucker was so near to President Trump in the hall on Monday evening?

Manly men intimidate Romney.

It seems that the sin of envy is the controlling aspect of his character. It has given him TDS, and now this vitriol toward JDV. He’s sort of unique in that most people try to hide it or disguise it as something else. Not him. It’s like a neon sign.

Pathetic.

“I don’t know that I can disrespect someone more than J.D. Vance,” Mitt Romney told his biographer in 2022, as Vance was running for the Senate.

—said the old guy born with a silver spoon in his mouth about a young guy who rose from poverty on his own initiative.

Having Romney around does provide some value. You need someone to define what the bottom of the barrel actually is.
