 Romney Says He's No Longer 'Part of The Republican Establishment'
By Nicole Nixon • Aug 19, 2019

Seven years after running for president as the GOP standard bearer, U.S. Sen. Mitt Romney on Monday described himself as a “renegade Republican” and said that he is “not part of the Republican establishment these days.”

In a wide-ranging speech at the Sutherland Institute, a conservative think tank in Salt Lake City, Utah’s junior senator argued against “socialist” proposals being discussed on the Democratic presidential debate stage such as “Medicare for All” and free college tuition. He also lamented that “neither party is interested in talking about the debt and the deficit.”

“I guess I should consider myself a renegade Republican because I still believe that deficits and debt matter a lot,” Romney said.

Sorry, Willard, you are not allowed to redefine that the "Republican Establishment" is when you are part of it.

Sanguine:
I always thought Romney was a decent man.  A little weak around the edges, yes, but basically decent.  I was wrong.

That goes double for Romney's soulmate Flake.

He'd be a Democrat, but even Democrats can't stand him.
