Romneyism Is The New Never Trump
Mitt Romney is now the crown prince of the clown car that is Never Trump.

What would America do without Mitt Romney? The failed GOP presidential candidate from 2012 made himself the top story on CNN yesterday by voting to convict President Trump in the impeachment trial. What bravery. What dignity. We can now replace the term Never Trump with the term Romneyism.
Romney envisions some episode of “Fantasy Island†where Air Force One is coming in and Bill Kristol says, “The plane, boss, the plane.†He clearly hopes for Trump to be defeated in November — he cast his vote Wednesday. But what exactly is he voting for?
Romneyism all but begs for the mythical Republicans who don’t support Donald Trump to vote for whatever white guy the Democrats throw up in November. Socialism? Fine. Whatever it takes. Romney might as well strap the dog on the roof and drive to Queens to protest new jobs with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
But in all seriousness, Romney has now made himself the crown prince of the clown car that was Never Trump. The Romneyites, all 12 of them, will flock to him and rain down praise on Twitter and MSNBC. They will await his coming after the fall of Trump. With solemnity and gifts he will apologize to the triumphant Democrats and beg them our forgiveness.
