Romney loses GOP support in Utah after challenging Trump on impeachment

"Utah Republican Sen. Mitt Romney lost support from Republicans and independents
in his home state during the weeks after he called for witnesses in President Trump's
Senate impeachment trial, a new poll shows. The Morning Consult survey found support
for Romney, 72, going down after he called for former national security adviser
John Bolton to testify at Trump’s impeachment trial, which began on Thursday.

... In the prior quarter, 65% of Utah Republicans supported Romney, and
while a majority still do presently, that number sank to 57%.

... Democrats claim Trump pressured Zelensky to dig up political dirt on former
Vice President Joe Biden, a leading Democrat vying to take on the president in November 2020.
Following the release of the transcript of the call, Romney described the
conversation as “troubling in the extreme.” ....

Romney is part of a small group of Republican senators who say they want to
hear from Bolton, one of the witnesses Democrats say should testify.

When Romney croaks, I’ll send a sympathy card . . . to CNN.

What it means is that the Mormon voter is just like him.

You're not kidding. 20% of the Utah vote in 2016 went for Evan "Egg McMuffin" McMullin.

They are going to be fresh out of allies when they want something from the rest of us.

Open borders. Allowing illegals to enter the country at will. Flooding the country with India’s H1-Bs.

OR try the Bonginoreport.com
I just recently came on to that site. Very good. I refuse
Drudge and haven’t been there since the 2016 election.
I tried TheLibertyDaily and their ads are repulsive..
so definitely love the Bonginoreport.com
I will look up this site now on Trump.

UT can be no more convinced about the treachery of
Romney than can VT with Sanders or DE with Biden.

“When I think of Mitt Romney, I’m reminded of stepping barefoot in ice cold vomit.”

Would that result in a feeling like having a cold fury run through your veins?

I hope so because it’s how I feel about that cretin and you gave such a good description of something that would result in that effect.

He feels he’s got the folks back home trapped into voting for him because of their religion.

Sad fact is that they will mostly vote for him again when he’s up for reelection. They’ll find a way to have his actions align with their faith’s rules. Sigh.

And he’s sure of it...

Romney is the Desert Skunk of Utah. He stinks and always has. It’s always been Romney, Romney, Romney, not America, America, America.

He’s worst than the Democrats who are the avowed but open enemies of America. He hides behind “latitudes and platitudes”.

Mitt Romney made his own bed, and own he reaps having to lie in it, as the old saying goes. And hopefully the other Never Trump RINO’s will face the same faith. As we see how stupidly depressing they have become in their hatred, they cut their own throats(politically).

Nah. The ice cold vomit comes from my dogs and my cat, whom I love very much.

So when the ice cold vomit smooshes up in between my toes, I don’t get furious, but I do get disgusted, ‘cuz that is really disgusting!

Now, if Mitt Romney puked on my floor, and then I stepped in it barefoot, Mitt would get the business.

Wow. I knew Romney was for that, but didn’t know it was something running through the Mormon community. I wonder why .... Get them here to convert them? Get them here to subsidize their businesses with slave labor? Shameful, for sure.
