Romney looks to lead GOP’s establishment wing

Mitt Romney is mapping out plans to become a major player in the Senate — positioning himself to be the spokesman of a listless Republican Party establishment that’s been steamrolled by President Donald Trump.

The failed presidential candidate turned Utah Senate hopeful has made it clear to senior party officials that he intends to make a splash with his all-but-certain arrival on Capitol Hill next year, according to nearly a dozen senators, major party donors and confidants who’ve spoken with him.

Mitt Romney is a phony, a fraud!

He will merely replace John McCain as a liberal republican in the Senate, just as the Establishment wanted to replace Arlen Specter with Mike Castle (different states, same ideology).

This can be stopped on June 26th of course if Utah votes for Mike Kennedy!

He’ll have to fight John Kasich for the title. Battle of the losers.

He’s an old man with a tired old name
High money low energy
Not a leader for the GOP
Unless the establishment wants to continue its retreat to irrelevance

Mitt Romney will not support President Trump’s agenda. Don’t support him.

I remember when Mitt was a mega-wealthy Nazi who killed employees with cancer. That was before the media repackaged him as a sober mature intellectual voice of reason. You know, back when McCain was a Nazi too, before he became a godlike spokesman for all that is powerful and true.

The Cheap Labor Express doesn’t need any more stooges in the Senate.

Flake, Corker, Hatch, Heller, Alexander, Graham, McCain, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Hyde-Smith, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Thune, Gaines, Barasso and Enzi are all Bush League Republicans hell bent on making America into North Mexico

We dodged a bullet. As bad as Obama was, at least it brought about Trump. The deep state made a potentially fatal flaw in pushing Obama over Romney. In 2008 they pushed Romney out in favor of McCain so that Obama would prevail. It seems they pushed their agenda about 4 years too early.

McCain has one foot in the grave, Goober is erratic and has too much personal baggage. The Koch brothers are stepping back. It’s up for grabs.

Exactly. I would so like to see him caught in the corruption exposure.

The same establishment that worked against conservative candidates for over half a century?

Romney is a miserable, lying sleazebag who will say anything at all that serves his own personal interests at any given moment.

In 2012, when he wanted (and received) Trump’s endorsement for his doomed presidential campaign, he spoke about Trump in the most glowing, obsequious terms:

Romney thanks Trump for endorsement.

But in 2016, all of a sudden Trump was a liar, a con man and a failure as a business man.

As the above video shows, Romney doesn't have an ounce of integrity, and shouldn’t hold any political position or have any public presence whatsoever.

During a debate for the 2008 election, Congressman Duncan Hunter spoke of “the Kennedy wing of the Republican party” referring to 2 others on the platform with him...Romney and McCain...

Clowns like Romney are a bigger threat to the future of this country than our foreign sworn enemies. Flake, Corker, Chis Coons, Ryan, McConnell, Collins, Kasich,etc........

Oust am all. If they persist on sedition and treason, send them to Cuba to get their brains scrambled with acoustic weaponry.

Excellent! Brennan can campaign with him!
