Mitt Romney backtracks after Trump-hating op-ed attack bombs
By Monica Showalter

 

Arriving in Washington for his new gig as Utah's junior senator, Mitt Romney jumped right in to revert to form, putting out a Washington Post attack op-ed decrying President Trump's lack of "character" and calling on Republicans to reach across the aisle.

Gad, his act is old.

The person who posted this article selected only the quotes about Romney to highlight.

This is the 'rest of the story.'

Here Trump has given us the best economy in decades, and Mitt has almost nothing to say about it other than that he agrees with it.

 Trump also never wavered on the appointment of Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh and has fought like a lion to get more constitutionally minded judges appointed.

 Trump chipped away at the nightmare of Obamacare, starting with an end to its vile poverty tax slapped onto the Americans who could not afford its costly one-size-fits all offerings.

  And he's fighting like heck for a wall with which to restore the integrity of U.S. borders.  And contrary to Romney's op-ed claims about U.S. allies no longer loving us, a lot of our allies love us – just ask Italy, Hungary, Poland, Israel, or Brazil.  As for the ones who don't (and as France shows, it's just the leaders who don't like Trump, not the yellow-vest protesters), why do we want the love of such detested political leaders?  These are people who hate us, and who hate their own people, too, allowing Muslim hordes from stone-age cultures to descend upon them, feed at their welfare troughs and sex-harass their women, turning vast swathes of Europe into no-go zones.

  Meantime, get a load of how friendly things are now with Brazil.  Heck, get a load of how civil things are with socialist Mexico.  Take a look at the de-fanging of North Korea.  Is Trump supposed to have warm, friendly, back-slapping relations with leaders of hellholes such as Cuba and Venezuela?  Is he supposed to do whatever Angela Merkel or Theresa May wants him to do?  He's chosen to make friends with the people who stand for things – in Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, as well as Italy, Hungary, and much of Eastern Europe
Against stupidity, the Gods themselves contend in vain.

I have friends in China who privately lament Xi doesn't seem to be as strong an advocate for China as Trump is for the USA. Right or wrong thats how they see him - they think Trump is eating his lunch.

This site, retains the 2012 Romney Ryan section, to remember GOP  defeat with dignity, character signaling, etc.

Which smoothe talkin hack, steps in first for 2020? Romney, Flake, Sasse, Ryan.

Character galore. Losses too.
