I understand but I think you overstate his efect.
If he’s routinely ignored, he becomes another screeching harpy (Are there male harpies ?). Hyperventilating & responding back in that vein gives him his power. Ignoring him and quietly encouraging Utah Republicans to solve the problem is the best solution.
“I understand but I think you overstate his effect.”
Problem is he has been a “go to” guy for the liberal press since his first political officers in Utah in the 1990’s and he hasn’t gone away yet. He is a practicing Trump basher even going after him when he was no longer president. And his only reason was to disgrace him if he wanted to run again which is the only reason the libs went after Trump on the second impeachment which Romney supported even though it was a fallacy. An example of his anti-trump behavior was Romney publicly criticized Trump for not releasing his taxes, saying there might be a “bombshell” in them. He said Trump was “a phony, a fraud ... He’s playing members of the American public for suckers” and that “if we Republicans choose Donald Trump as our nominee, the prospects for a safe and prosperous future are greatly diminished”. (And we all know that during the Trump administration, we had the most prosperous economy of all time...so much for Romney’s stupidity)
There’s a whole lot more I could produce on Romney but the easiest is he is accepting support from the GOP party he is attacking consistently and needs to be sent packing. And it appears he won’t take the hint and do it himself.
