@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
You forgot the barf alert.
That post election dinner in New York finally paid off for Mittens.
Trump can’t stop Romney from winning in Utah / Mormonland so he endorses to gain a favor owed and to be able to later claim that his endorsement helped (as opposed to not endorsing and Mitt wins anyway).
I keep getting emails from the RNC about how excited I should be and how I can get my very own Mitt t-shirt. Pah!
I’m all for Trump, but Romney is a swamp creature. I’m also all for pragmatism, but when Romney is the best you can do, it’s a sad commentary on the state of politics.
The manufacturers tag on the backside of Mitts Magic Undies is still imprinted on his forehead.
A Trumpian Wedgie of Atomic Proportions
Agreed. There is no Trump Republican to challenge Romney, so goodwill seems polite.
It's actually remarkable to see how far Romney has fallen, when you think about it. He went from presidential contender in 2012 to a candidate for a barely consequential seat in the U.S. Senate in 2018.
Endorsing him for this seat is like wishing him the best of luck in the Special Olympics.
I would have waited until after the primary, then he would have no choice.
What next? Is he going to endorse Villagarosa for governor of California?
Romney is loathesome, the grease oozes out of his pores. The Donald must have to hold his nose when near the guy.
Mitt is backed into a corner now. Take the endorsement after everything he said and makes him look an ass or not take the endorsement and look like an ass.
Mittens will win. Deal with it. Trump has.
How farked are we? The Repuki party is recruiting more of the likes of Romney and less of the likes of Nunes.
Romney is a liberal demoncrat. Worse, he wears magic underwear.

On the surface, yes - but remember we are dealing with one of the shrewdest operators in the business.
Everything with Trump has a rhyme or reason to it. So he endorsed Romney. Now why would that be?
(A) To cut the legs out from under the Never-Trumpers
(B) Easy Senate pickup and reliable vote for MAGA (Remember, Trump invited Romney to dinner at Trump Tower about a year ago)
(C) The extreme anti-Trump kook Left will now descend upon Utah and spend their Soros resources there instead of in key battleground states like WI, VA, or MO where we desperately need a Republican pickup
Just ignored it...
Sheeeeeeit!
Mitt sucks is a complete a$$hole.
I’m guessing Trump knows what he’s doing.
Romney will be an enemy of Trump’s and the right just like McCain and Flake. The president shouldn’t have endorsed him. Trump is good at making speeches and tweeting, but he’s not changing much.
