Romney says he expects 'unimaginable' consequences after impeachment vote

Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, the only Republican to vote to convict President Trump on abuse of power during the impeachment trial this week, said he expects he'll face "unimaginable" consequences for breaking with his party.

"I don't know what they’ll be, there's some I know," Romney said in an interview released by New York Times's "Daily" podcast Thursday, when asked what consequences he anticipates from the decision.

"I know they'll be consequence and I just have to recognize that and do what you think is right," Romney added.

"Not voting my conscience in order for me to have a better political and personal benefit would subject my own conscience to its censure," Romney said, on his decision to break from his party.

"So I just, I don't have a choice there. This for me is fundamental to my oath to God and fundamental to how our country must work, which is people have to be seen as honest in fulfilling the oath that they take," he said.

....”The “consequences” are him being celebrated as a hero by the media and Democrats”....

oh of course, and it was all staged ahead to play out just as we see now in the media.... recall Nadlers/Schiffs speech that ‘just one person’ taing a stand for what is right? They already had their mark in place.

The God he is invoking is not my God. So he can hide behind his errant religion all he wants.

I just finished watching Ben Stiller in Walter Mittey. Maybe Mitt is planning on quitting the party and running for president as a democrat.

The consequence will be self-inflicted. The hate, jealousy, envy, etc. that he has for Trump has poisoned his mind already as exhibited by his vote .... it will also consume him alive from inside. I predict Mittens is going to be a very unhappy man for the rest of his life.

Take away any committees he’s on! Except, maybe, the canine retrieval committee! Phuck you Mittens! You hateful, backstabbing, carpetbagger!

“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor” is another one. Mitt said Trump withheld aid to coerce Ukraine to investigate a political rival, when there is no evidence he did that. Does he have evidence no one knows about, or is he lying?

I imagine he might be surprised if people quit even paying attention to him regardless of what he does.

Let him fade from memory like Cindy Sheehan.

I watched a lot of the Senators speeches those few days on C-SPAN 2. None were on the channels.

When mitt came up suddenly he was on ALL the channels. They all knew in advance what he was going to say otherwise he would not have been the only Senator to have his speech televised.

He is part of the coup.

A man after Joseph Smith’s own heart....

ALL other men of faith are wrong!!!!

Only “MY” righteousness under “MY” faith recognizes that the democrats have been right all along!!!
