RNC Member Warns: Romney Is Trying to Steal GOP Nomination From Trump

By Rusty | Featured Contributor | January 2, 2019 3:14PM

A Republican National Committee member is warning that Mitt Romney’s op-ed is the first shot in an attempt to up-end the party’s presidential nomination in 2020.

Romney authored a column for the Washington Post indicating Trump had failed to live up to the “mantle” of the presidency, and he would not hesitate to call out any “significant statements or actions that are divisive, racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, dishonest or destructive to democratic institutions” by the President in the future.

While the media is hailing the effort as an assertion of his independence, others are fighting back, and Romney’s commentary may serve as a preview or the actual catalyst to starting a Republican civil war.

The irony here is that Trump is the Establishment candidate while Romney stands on the outside wanting to be.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
