@MittRomney has announced he is running for the Senate from the wonderful State of Utah. He will make a great Senator and worthy successor to @OrrinHatch, and has my full support and endorsement! 9:21 PM - 19 Feb 2018
There are some things that Trump does that makes me shake my head in amazement.
We don’t know what Trump and Romney have talked about in private. Who knows?
Romney will win in Utah regardless if he has Trump’s support or not. The president might as well make not waste time and energy on this when the outcome is known so endorse Romney early and concentrate on more important battles.
He’s the most powerful man in the world, “he had no choice” is a BS exuse.
Now look see I get why endorsed him and in fact I expected as much, if Romney is nominated I will endorse him then while I’m sure many here will support third party idiocy.
But he’s not nominated yet and no matter how favored he is, he does not deserve the support of any conservative in the primary, the SOB should be made to fight for it, this is not North Korea were we need to accept the anointed candidate being shoved down our throats with nary a peep.

Except for dougall, maybe
Thass nice - tell Nancy and Hillary and the gang “Hi” for yourself. I voted for Trump and feel like he came at the last possible moment to give Freedom of the People a chance and I’ll support him - won’t stab him and myself in the eye with a fork for some insane idea that it’s the “principled” thing to do - the reason we haven’t actually won a war since WWII is because the politicians decided to act with more “principles” - we’re in a war with the hard Left and every pop gun counts.
Impy, the fact is NO Utah conservative would run.
I urged Bannon, back in August, to get Cong. Chris Stewart-—well known, popular, conservative—into the race.
The word I got was that Stewart did not want to leave his House chairmanship. It’s more likely he thought Minion would run and that he couldn’t beat Minion.
I don’t know what Trump is supposed to do. Not endorse an R running for a sure win seat? We know Minion will stab him in the back, but do you want to just encourage that openly? I don’t know.
And I freaking hate what Twitter represents. Reducing complex issues to half sentences.
But that pretty much sums up my frustrations with Trump. His bad hiring and Twitter.
Otherwise he has delivered.
Trump has an itchy trigger finger? Nobody check with the party chairman first?
I’m not on Twitter, think it’s STUPID, but it IS the ONLY way he can fight back/get his ideas out, now.
He’s just acknowledging reality...a reality we don’t like, but still reality. No reason to waste time on it. There are other races to focus on.
He’s going to be there, so we need more fresh faces in there to counter him.
After a “few terms” he would be about 90 years old.
Exactly.
I hope he plans to organize “money bombs” for candidates in the states he won. He has millions of followers - two million people donating just an average of $5 per candidate gets them a warchest of $10 million each - absolutely key for winning to get them to parity with the incumbents who have a huge head start.
Go Dougall, go Dougall, it’s your birthday, it’s your birthday!
I guess so? More effective and efficient that just say running a web site?
Yes,far MORE efficient than posting to a web site; obviously.
