Romney praises Supreme Court nominee Barrett's 'integrity,' slams 'division and contempt for others' in US
Faux News ^ | October 26, 2020 | Tyler Olson

Posted on 10/26/2020 9:38:41 AM PDT by Navy Patriot

Sen. Mitt Romney, who was originally seen as a potential swing vote on Senate Republicans' efforts to fill the vacant Supreme Court seat of late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, made brief comments on the Senate floor Monday morning supporting the woman who will likely be confirmed as Ginsburg's successor Monday night: Judge Amy Coney Barrett.

Romney continued: "I also rise to address my concern regarding the division and contempt for others that is growing among many of our citizens. ... Trust in the F.B.I. and the intelligence community, long admired for their integrity and professionalism, has withered with the attacks by both parties, though admittedly my party has been more vocal."

Romney also decried attacks on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration and the free press.

What a flaming turd. What a steaming pile.

As if the FBI had done nothing to engender the criticism...totally blameless.

Just wow.

Trust in the FBI and the intelligence community has withered because of the actions of the FBI and the intelligence community, not because of "attacks by both parties". Romney is such a worm.

He loves the deep state and they love him for it.

He refuses the admit that what criticism federal agencies have received has been due to their own failures or errors, NOT because the criticism was wrong, nor that it was wrong to be vocal about it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Trust in the Federal Bureau of Incrimination And Sedition (FBIAS) and the CIA has withered because of the actions of those agencies, not the righteous criticism of those actions.

Romney is a weasel, thanks Utah Morons.

Woof Woof!! Like anyone hears you, MiTT.

You had a chance to stem the hemmorhage and chickened out against a narcissist lieke Obammy.. Nice guy, my arse.

The GOP that lets you walk in its shade for free should be gone. The gloves need to come off, lose some skin for freedom why don’tcha,, instead of covering up for China and profiting from it.

Was this Romney’s way of prasing Trump’s judicial choice while bashing Trump at the same time. Face it, Mitt, you lost and Trump won. Don’t be a sore loser.

Mitt Romney reminds me of the old joke about Eleanor Roosevelt.

A drunk bumped into her on a train once and declared "Eleanor! You've got to be the ugliest woman God ever created!"

Not missing a beat, she shot back "And you've got to be the most drunken, disgusting man!"

"Yep," said the drunk, "but tomorrow I'll be sober!"

I don't really have much knowledge about the politics of Maine but it seems to me that Senator Collins could possibly play both sides if she abstains on this vote. She could say that she was impressed with ACB and couldn't vote against her but felt that the process was improper and thus couldn't vote for her. The former could appease some conservative-leaning voters while the latter could appease liberal-leaning voters.

I think I have a better understanding of Utah (and Mormon) politics and Mitt Romney should do everyone a favor and retire. This sanctimonious act become old a long time ago and gets worse each time Romney talks.
