But forgot to mention how much he hates Trump.
===============
Romney’s “guilty” vote should have been expected.
Listening to his near tearful rationalization of his vote, my mind immediately flashed back to his 2016 unforced diatribe against Trump.
Though Romney wasn’t a presidential candidate at the time, he felt it was his moral responsibility to give a speech to call out Trump.
- If you need a refresher, here’s a 3-minute summary.
In a nutshell Romney opined: “Trump is a phony and a fraud lacking the temperament or judgement to be President” and “If his economic plans are implemented America will go into a deep recession.”
He could have stated his deep Christian assessment more simply as: “I hate Trump.”
I thought he was warming to Trump when he groveled for the Secretary of State job.
When Trump rejected him, the die was cast.
Revenge was certain … it just needed an opportunity.
Imagine how frustrating it was for Romney hear Trump recount his many presidential accomplishments during the State of the Union.
Well, Pelosi-Schiff-Nadler provided the opportunity … and Romney took it.
His vote really didn’t matter other than depriving Trump the chance to use the phrase “on a strictly partisan vote”.
It’ll be interesting to see how long his moral courage will be touted by the Dems who previously called him a racist, misogynist, animal abuser and corporate looter.
My bet: He’ll be a quickly fading Dem hero … hours or days … not months or years.
Romney is trying to claim the mantle that Comey forfeited as as America’s self-proclaimed moral arbitrator.
My question to him: When did hate become a Christian value?
