Mitt Romney: Impeachment of Trump an ‘Inflection Point in American History’
Breitbart ^ | 20 Oct 2019 | Sean Moran

Posted on 10/20/2019 6:24:11 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told the Atlantic on Sunday that he believes the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry investigating President Donald Trump will serve as an “inflection point in American history.”

Atlantic staff writer McKay Coppins released an interview on Sunday detailing extended conversations with Romney regarding his views on the U.S. Senate, his attacks on President Trump, as well as his opinions on impeachment.

Coppins wrote that while most Republicans have backed the president amidst the impeachment inquiry, Romney continues to stay “open to the idea that the president may need to be evicted from the Oval Office.”

Sen. Romney said that he believes that the potential impeachment will serve as a critical juncture in American history.

“I do think people will view this as an inflection point in American history,” Romney said.

“I don’t look at myself as being a historical figure,” the failed 2012 Republican presidential candidate said. However, Romney adds, “I do think these are critical times. And I hope that what I’m doing will open the way for people to take a different path.”

Sen. Romney also suggested that Trump’s performance in office is directly linked to his character.

“Berating another person, or calling them names, or demeaning a class of people, not telling the truth—those are not private things,” Romney said. “If during the campaign you pay a porn star $130,000, that now comes into the public domain.”

Romney the RAT has a LONG history of backstabbing
conservatives, blacks, women, and Americans.

From Earth to other planets, he will be remembered
for imposing RomneyCARE while stabbing everyone around him.


"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"


Poor sport spoiler Romney doing what he does best:

Novak: "Fred Thompson drop-out rumors traced to Romney campaign"

Said Novak: "The rumors were traced in part to Mitt Romney's campaign,
trying to stir up strife between McCain and Thompson
."


"Despite outspending his rivals by huge margins throughout the primaries,
(Mitt Romney, Carpetbagger UT,CA,MA,NH,Mexico) lost Iowa, South Carolina, Florida and California.
The only primaries he won were in Michigan, where Dad was governor; LDS states;
and a few states on Super Tuesday in which his California-obsessed rivals
couldn't spare the cash to advertise.
Only John Connolly in 1968 had a worse cash-to-delegates ratio.
And John McCain rightly did not like Romney's tactics during the primaries.
(W)hen (Romney's early leads) started slipping away, he resorted to unfair,
distorted, scorched-earth negative ads, betting that his opponents couldn't
afford to spend enough for the truth to catch up to his charges."

I just don’t get who Mitt thinks his constituency is? Does he realize that in trying to please everyone he has pleased no one? This man is the most loathed politician in America.

Willard talks like a guy who won the big game.

And not the guy who struck out to lose the game.

On three straight pitches. With the bat on his shoulder.

Romney is too arrogant understand that his brand of Never Trumpism has forever shattered the already uneasy GOP base coalition.

There will come a day in the near future when the establishment comes to Trump country looking for the votes of Trump supporters. They will be looking in vain because in Main Street USA loyalty is a two way street.

Not a single cent should EVER be donated to the Republican Senate Campaign Committee if there is a chance a penny of it goes to this slimy turd.

What an unmitigated asshole.

Mitt Romney is the last Democrat I will ever vote for. Thanks to Trump it is now clear that the post Reagan GOP was nearly as progressive as Pelosi and Schumer.

Romney is so jealous he can’t stand it. President Trump is Better at Everything.

Romney is such a pathetic little creature.

He has no idea how off track he is, how the press is using him, and what damage he could wind up helping the Leftists to do our nation.

The body politic is so dang far over this man’s head.

Well after all 3 branches gave consent by silence to a Kenyan born Indonesian citizen being placed in the White House, this fascist attempt to overthrow the votes of the citizens is to be expected.

Romney is up to his ass in something that Barr is investigating, I think.

Mittens and McCain: two guys who would sell their souls for puff pieces in the NYTWAPO (and probably did). But when it came time for them to run, they got trashed by their liberal buddies in the Press. Stupid never learns.

Don’t be so hard on yourself. A lot of us made the same mistake.

We didn’t have as much information about Mitt as we do today.

Remember, when the facts change, it’s OK to change your mind.

“I don’t look at myself as being a historical figure”

People who say that believe exactly that.
