Romney is lower than slug vomit. I’ve been voting since the Reagan/Carter election and never in my life have I ever seen any politician call a press conference to bash his own parties nomineee for President. I still can’t believe it, but that’s just what Romney did in 2016. And incredibly Romney had the gall to badmouth George Santos to his face telling Santos HE’S a “sick puppy”?? Look in the mirror jackass!!

It has always been McConnell that picks worthless Senate candidates.

The Trump hating Senators can rot in hell.

Good riddance to Romney, Mitch, et al.

"Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) said many Republican senators have endorsed Trump out of a sense of political “self-preservation.”"

It might be time to call this c--------r out. Have Trump challenge him to a debate, and eliminate RINOs once and for all.

"Well, Mitt, you're a loser, and Americans don't like losers..NO, wait, wait, you're not going to respond during my time. Your time is over, you need to retire to your White Castle and get out of politics forever."

I think we will probably see a Democrat occupy that seat.

You saw this, right?

Gov. Andy Beshear, D-Ky., would appoint someone to fill that vacancy, until the next election. A 2021 bill passed by the Republican-controlled legislature limited who that appointment could be. The governor must pick from three people who’ve been selected by a committee made up of people who are the same party as the outgoing lawmaker. McConnell said in 2021 he supports this process.
