Mitt Romney Reminds Us Again Why the GOP Establishment Deserves to Get Shellacked
2021-05-18
[REDSTATE] These people are horrible at reading the room, aren’t they? Sen. Willard Mitt Romney, aka Pierre Delecto
...former governor of Massachussetts, the Publican nominee for president in 2012, now Senator from Utah. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney has a record as a successful businessman, heading Bain Capital, and he rescued the 2002 Winter Olympics from the midst of bribery and mismanagement scandals. He is currently a trans Republican and a member in good standing of the Never Trump Party, attempting to assume the mantle of the late John McCain...
(R-UT) once again went full Maddow during an interview recently, when discussing the riots at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

During the conversation on Thursday with HuffPost, the senator stated that the riot was an "insurrection against the Constitution." His comments came as several other Republican politicians weighed in on the incident, some downplaying the severity of the riot.

Romney said the assault on the Capitol building caused several deaths, injuries, and property damage. "I was there," he said. "What happened was a violent mostly peaceful effort to interfere with and prevent the constitutional order of installing a new president."

The politician was one of several GOP senators who voted to convict former President Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
for supposedly inciting the riot. Democrats and members of the activist media have been using the incident to smear the conservative movement.

People like Romney and Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), who was recently removed from her position as GOP House chair, have found it difficult to move on after Trump left office. Along with their friends on the left, these individuals continue fixating over the former president like CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who knows what it might stand for...
’s Ace Newshound Jim Acosta
...CNN's showboating White House correspondent...
over his reflection in a mirror.

If only these people had as much energy for the George Floyd riots as they do for the assault on the U.S. Capitol.

#3  I'd be surprised if he runs again. I think even the Mormon faithful are sick of him.

#2  I would disagree about reading the room. In fact I would say he's good at reading his room. The problem is that it's a very small room in DC and the rest of the country is long fed up with it.
