Washington is already taking sides in the battle between President Trump and incoming Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, with Trump ally Sen. Rand Paul slamming the 2012 GOP presidential nominee.

Paul tweeted that Romney is a “Big Government Republican” and faux conservative.

In reacting to Romney’s attack in the Washington Post on Trump, Paul also made clear that he does not think Romney, who is still to be sworn in as a new senator, has any affinity for former President Reagan.

Paul tweeted this morning, “Like other Big Government Republicans who never liked Reagan, Mitt Romney wants to signal how virtuous he is in comparison to the President. Well, I’m most concerned and pleased with the actual conservative reform agenda @realDonaldTrump has achieved.”

Mitt has more affinity to John McCain than Trump. Both McCain and Romney were POTUS wanna’ bees that never made it to the WH, but somehow think that what they say means anything.

It didn’t take Mittens long did it? With Flake and McCain gone, we knew he’d lead the opposition to President Trump. I thought he might get sworn in before he started though. Guess I was wrong.

Sometime draining the swamp is good, while new elected officials jump back into the swamp.

Paul knows that Romney is the kind of groveling, duplicitous SOB that will shush you while he stabs you through the heart.

Just like his father, Bitter Mitter was a stupid campaigner. George lost all hope for the presidency when he stated that our generals brainwashed him into supporting the VietNam war. Is Mitt trying to get back at us for dumping his father?

Thank you Rand Paul.

There are very few Senators that are not Bush League Republicans.

George Romney was born in Mexico and was ineligible to run for President.

One of the early attempts to neuter the protections of Art II Sec.1 of the Constitution.
