Romney fosters 2024 speculation with criticism of Trump during impeachment
The Washington Examiner ^ | 01-31-2020 | David M. Drucker

Posted on 01/31/2020 4:51:20 PM PST by Trump20162020

Mitt Romney is stoking suspicions that he is eyeing a third White House bid in 2024 after the Utah Republican broke with his party and insisted on witnesses at President Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate.

A second Republican strategist neither affiliated with nor opposed to Trump agreed that Romney’s maneuvering during the four-month impeachment process was calculated. This veteran operative predicted the senator would be active after the November elections, trying to restore the internationalist, “Chamber of Commerce” Republicanism that dominated the GOP before the elevation of Trump, a populist and a nationalist.

“He is cynically betting on an electoral disaster in 2020,” this Republican said, requesting anonymity in order to speak candidly and preserve relationships with key establishment figures. “I think he believes he will be the only guy who will look like he was in the right on the road to hell.”

Ha ha ha ha ha. Mittens, just try coming to MAGA Country looking for votes. It will be a quick trip and won’t end well, guaranteed.

Does this guy have no clue how hated he is by the very people who voted for him in 12?

Seriously, how gone deaf is this fool?

Mittens has no support. None. He’d struggle to even win Utah.

I didn’t vote for Romney. I voted against Obama.

Today, I’d probably vote for Obama, at least I know what he is.

Even in his home state of Utah, the plurality of Republicans, with or without independents, disfavor Romney.

Romney is politcally dead in the GOP. 97% that support Trump are not going to forgive, nor forget, his complete idiocy in the US Senate.

He could go for being Bernie’s or Biden’s Vice Presidential pick. Both those old Fossils will be dead by 2024.

I say we tie him to the top of a car and go on vacation.

First I laughed a lot. Then I started thinking. Home Depot has some good prices on sturdy ropes.

Yet they'll still vote for him. It's like DiBlasio in New York, nobody likes him, but he still wins.

I don’t he could carry Utah. Maybe he plans to run as a Dem.

Great strategy Mittens. Everyone should insult the people they need most to fulfill their unrealistic expectations.
