Huh. Simple question: who has better character: Trump or Romney?

Rush seems to accept that Trump doesn’t have great character. Well, who the hell is he to judge?

6 MINUTE CHAT ON ROMNEY by BRENT BOZELL & LEVIN
Surfing YouTube one night before drifting off at 3 am for my now customary 5 hours of sleep, I stumbled across this Mark Levin interview with Brent Bozell.
The entire 40 minutes is more than worthy of your attention and if you’re as tight on time as I am, boot it up and let it run in the background as you do other computer “stuff”.
That said, I sent this for the highly informative 6+ minute discussion between 4:20 and 10:40 of soon-to-announce GOP candidate MITT ROMNEY for whom I also voted in 2012 ONLY because he wasn’t obozo.
This guy is a opportunistic political/ideological chameleon! On the billboard in the background in the accompanying graphic, I call him the “Kama sutra of politicians.” That’s actually understatement.
This guy has become a Trojan Horse of the Deep State for the sole purpose of TAKING OUT DONALD TRUMP so they (the Dems, RINOs and other beneficiaries of the massive corruption in that swamp) can RESUME BUSINESS AS USUAL!
Listen to Brent’s spot-on analysis of Romney and decide for yourself if trading Trump for this guy is a good idea.

 (And, though they’ve left it up, YouTube DOES NOT want you to watch that video. I went to my “History” and it wasn’t there. I had to do a search to relocate it. Might want to copy the link if you want to share it between now and the 2020 election.)

I heard it this afternoon. One of the best riffs from RL in a long time. He dissected how completely out of touch and irrelevant they are

Trump has exposed the elitists in both parties that believe their superiority entitles them to tell us how we should live and what our values should be. They’re wrong; as wrong as the king of England was, and as wrong as the Axis Powers were. Americans demand and absolutely require the right to govern ourselves. That’s what Trump gives us that the elites can’t grasp.

Romney has character? He accepted Trump’s endorsement. Then right after he is sworn in he attacks Trump. That’s a low life move. If he had character, he would have refused Trump’s endorsement BEFORE the election, so voters could have considered that he was an enemy of Trump.

Low life backstabber.

Rush doesn’t explain the apparent disconnect well.

NeverTrumpers never wanted to fix anything, ever. That requires work and they won’t do work and know no one who will. Implementation of anything they claim to want is actually counterproductive, because it would eliminate the ability to talk about how virtuous it would be to have that concept implemented.

NeverTrumpers are repulsed by anyone who actually could stoop to “do.” They use the opportunity to sneer they could have done better, but it is only posing. But they look credible when posing because they have spoken of dozens of virtuous concepts over time and none were “able” to be implemented. If one got properly implemented, people would then wonder why more weren’t implemented, and that would mean a lot more work would have to be done, which they don’t want to have to do.

They bring down doers because they make the posers look incompetent.

Excellent analysis by Rush. (Best political analyst bar none!)

“In fact, I would go so far as to say that a lot of Trump voters find his character, his tweeting and his direct, on-point talk at people as part of his virtue. The guy’s willing to say it like it is. The guy’s willing to get outside the normal political boundaries and call these people out, and we’ve been wanting that. And not to be gratuitously attacking, just tell the truth about it to people. To some people this is a character virtue. It isn’t a defect.”

Count me in that group. A kick-ass type of guy is exactly what we needed at this time... cause there are a lot of asses that need kicking.

The distinction is simple: the elitists would rather have someone who says the right thing, but does the wrong thing. And we'd rather have someone who says the wrong thing (well, he sometimes does) but does the right thing.

Rush could have revived one of his slogans from back then - "style over substance". That's exactly how Romney and his ilk prioritize things.

Our relationship to government and our 'leaders' has changed. We've learned the limitations of "character" the hard way. We used to vote for character because we wanted the president, for example, to make decisions and policies we couldn't comprehend or follow. The Bushes were men of high character, and they killed the country.

We've learned the hard way that 'being ruled by our betters' isn't working. We figured out what the country needs, and why. In that sense, we're the true descendants of the Founders. That's why we have no interest in any more Bushes or Clintons. We want someone who won't insult our intelligence.

In the case of Trump, we voted for him because he promised the policies we believe the country requires...and we believed he would follow through.

That's why Trump. And the last two years has only strengthened our resolve, reinforced our beliefs.

Part of the reason “character” wasn’t seen as important when Clinton was President was that the Republicans were seen as hypocrites on moral issues at the time. A case in point is Mitt Romney himself. He talks the GOP line, until he benefits from acting otherwise in the most self aggrandizing way possible.

“I can’t spare this man, he fights.”

Lincoln said it of a general in the civil war. That general drank, he wasn’t well kept. When he travelled to Washington to accept the promotion to the highest command since George Washington, he was initially given a closet for a hotel room because his uniform was dirty (travelled non-stop to DC after breaking out of Chattanooga), unassuming, and not buttoned, and acommpanied by a single servent (his son whom he picked up in Ohio along way). His name was Grant, and he aggressively attacked the south until it collapsed. Lee feared him, for good reason. Battle tested, tough as nails, and could predict Lee’s movements, and pushed until victory.

Trump is Grant. He isn’t cute, isn’t nice, says the wrong things, but he fights and wins for the United States.

The problem: Trump had to endorse the swamp & political jellyfish Romney’s senate bidding.
