‘You’re next’: Romney gets an earful after warning Cheney removal will cost Republicans votes
May 11, 2021 | Jon Dougherty

Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah on Monday predicted that removing Rep. Liz Cheney from her leadership position as the House Republican Conference chair will cost the party voters and lead to election losses in the 2022 midterms and the 2024 general elections.

“Expelling Liz Cheney from leadership won’t gain the GOP one additional voter, but it will cost us quite a few,” Romney posted on Twitter.

Romney’s comments in support of Cheney come ahead of a vote on Wednesday by the GOP caucus in which she is expected to be ousted from her post after surviving a similar showdown in February. Republican leaders have become increasingly disenchanted with Cheney over her pushback on the party’s strategy to focus on working-class voters under an ‘America First’ platform championed by former President Donald Trump.

Dumping Cheney will gain the GOP votes that would have left if she hadn't been punished.

Dumping Romney is Utah's chore and they better get on with it.   EVERY TIME Romney steps off an airplane in Utah, he should be greeted with chants of "Traitor" and "Go Home to Massachusetts".   And at every scheduled appearance and every chance encounter on the streets.   No respectable person would be polite to Mittens Romney.

This should continue, in fact, not only until he leaves office, but until he leaves EARTH.

"Traitor" is a lifetime social disease and should be announced to everyone by everyone, all the time.

I agree, Cheney's departure will only strengthen the Republican Party.  Cheney brought nothing to the party.  A BIG FAT NOTHING!!!  She is another Hillary Clinton, all mouth, no substance.
