Mitt Romney: War with Iran is 'not going to happen'
The Hill ^ | May 19, 2019 | Rachel Frazin

“I don’t believe for a minute that either the president or John Bolton…has any interest in going to the Middle East and going to war. That’s just not going to happen. There’s no interest in doing that,” said Romney, a frequent critic of Trump who sits on the Senate foreign relations committee.

Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have been building since Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Obama-era nuclear pact in 2018 because he said the agreement did not adequately address Tehran’s influence in the region or its missile programs.

Romney can’t know if Iran will do something to provoke action by US. Mitt, you are not President.

SHUT UP, Twitt.

ALL options WILL STAY on the table.

Our enemies must FEAR us.

That is the ONLY thing radical Islamic terrorists understand.

The media loves Mitt (now)

They ask him about everything like he is some kind of alternative President.

This tells you all you need to know.

The best I can figure is that Romney wants to be waiting in the wings when Trump is defeated or impeached, so he can step in and be the savior of the GOP. That means he has to walk a fine line - undermine Trump but not so obviously as to alienate the GOP base too much. Of course, Trump’s not going to be impeached or lose reelection, but the left and the RINO’s are clinging to that belief because it’s the only hope they’ve got.

Has dimwit Mitt gone after BigBird yet? Was one of his very few ideas when he ran for president. Did mitt the senator forget that? If it was the right thing to do, the clown should be pursuing that.

I think you’re partly right. The Globalist-Uniparty-GOPe want Mittens waiting in the wings. He’s just a no-talent fool who’s too stupid to know he was set up last time to fail, and he’ll gladly do the same thing again.

Whenever I see him, all I can think of is a Parakeet cleaning itself.

Mutt is so predictable. He regularly says something so stupid that he is inundated with criticism and a few days later he comes up with some sort of pandering baloney to take the heat off.

Or maybe he’s just trying to save Bolton’s job as a deep state mole in the White House.
