I mean, it’s looking like it probably won’t even take us having to wish him to quit the race.  The race might quit him.

This was literally the one day we didn’t need to shit on Mitt Romney. We already know he’s not our hero; it was enough to simply give props were props are earned. He earned them, yesterday. Leave it at that. Jeeze.

Romney took away Trump’s ability to say that the Republicans all voted to acquit, that it was just the Democrats. He probably turned whatever color purple and orange make.

We shall see ... Mormons are good honest people, and they take their faith very seriously. Unlike 52 blaspheming republican senators who swore on their faith and then kowtowed to a false orange diety.

So... Kind of fucked up that Bernie rented his Iowa party space from the Head of Iowa Right to Life.

Romney didn’t have much to gain in casting that vote either which makes it very useful, imo. Despite know there would be consequences, Romney still voted to convict. As I’ve listened to Trump supporters dismissing his impeachment as partisan, I’ve thought back to how only one person voted against the Iraq War, Rep.…

The Republicans really showed thier entire red asses protecting Trump didn’t they? So how funny would it be if Joe Biden just stepped aside and endorsed whom ever wins? That would ruin Trump’s reelection strategy of running Biden through the dirt via Trump’s impeachment trial. They would have wasted so much energy…

Yeah, let’s spend less time worrying whether we should praise Mittens or not when we should be calling out people like Collins for being absolute trash.

Goddamn, when I heard Susan Collins spout that nonsense I about had a rage stroke. The only “lesson” learned here is that The GOP is perfectly fine running cover for Donald fucking Trump. Not for some Lex Luthor-type crafty, calculating bastard. No, they’ve gone all in on the dumbest of villains.

My soul is leaving my body to escape the second hand embarrassment.

She’s gotta be out this year right?

As a sign of my respect for the GOP, I just logged onto their site and sent them this message:

Perhaps not heroic but certainly gutsy. What I like is his speech about making this decision based on his faith. This is an issue that can split the republican vote. Mormon folk are not voting for Trump for sure now.

To which Trump said when told of Collins statement was basically “The phone call was perfect and hadn’t done anything wrong.”

Not calling him a hero or anything but Romney's literally the first Senator in history to vote to remove a President of his own party during an Impeachment. 

someone had their last day at Axios

Meh. When a politician makes a right decision, that should be encouraged. Even if that person isn’t the best person on the planet. A) It couldn’t hurt, and B) telling them to fuck off probably is counterproductive ...

“suddenly barring press from a meeting”

Sure, Romney didn’t have much to lose in casting that vote. But it’s not useless. This isn’t some obscure judiciary nomination or bill. It’s going to be pretty useful for Trump’s democratic opponent(s) to be able to point out that, on abuse of power, the vote to acquit was strictly partisan, while the vote to convict…
