Romney takes shots at Trump over race, says he’s abandoning Kurds in Syria
NY Post ^ | October 20 2019 | Frank Miles - Fox News

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, took a series of shots at President Trump in an interview that aired Sunday, saying that some of the president’s rhetoric appealed to racism and claiming that under his leadership, the US was abandoning allied Kurdish fighters in Syria.

Romney, who said he wrote in his wife, Ann, when he voted in 2016, told “Axios on HBO,” “The places where I would be most critical of the president would be in matters that were divisive, that appeared to be appealing to racism or misogyny, and those are the kinds of things I think that have been most, most harmful long term to the foundation of America’s virtuous character.”

He noted he still voted with Trump 80 percent of the time.

What matters in Utah is that he’s Mormon. Everything begins and ends there.

Tempest in a teapot - the Russians have assumed US positions. Its for the Russians to guarantee Kurds safety against the Turks - and the Turks better comply or no S-300/400 systems and manufacturing licenses - same for SU-57s.

Looking back, there are three things we can thanks Obama for.

Preventing President Hillary Clinton.

Preventing President McCain.

And, preventing President Romney and Vice President Ryan.

As bad as Obama was, any of them would have been worse.

<< [rhetoric] appealing to racism or misogyny >>

Not surprisingly, Mitt couldn’t provide even one example. Right out of the Democrat playbook — accuse way, without a shred of evidence, figuring that the accusations alone, if repeated enough, will be believed.

Hey Mittens, you’re trying just a bit too hard at being a Trump contrarian. The wow factor is wearing off!

What an A$$wipe!

Mormons have never been known as racists or misogynist.

This is not a change for Romney.
There is no “joining.”

From Obamacare to school curriculum teaching children homosexuality and transexuality, Obama followed a trail blazed by Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney.

A "friend" who only screws your wife 20% of the time you are out of town, is a real gem - huh?!?

Is Mittens angling for a primary run? Someone has convinced him Trump will be impeached amd he’s just the guy to step up. GFY, Romney.

I cannot imagine him wasting his time and resources on another run. If he does, it will be my first 'rat vote in decades. Maybe there is some Uniparty rule in which one or more GOP senators have to play the part of a "maverick"? McCain and Flake did; now it's Mittens' turn.
