Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) compared former President Trump to a failing pitcher on a baseball team who remains on the mound despite a series of losses, noting Trump has been the party leader as the GOP has had disappointing election outcomes in 2018, 2020 and 2022.

Romney, a vocal critic of Trump in the Republican party, told the Associated Press that Trump has “been on the mound and lost three straight games.”

More like a young Nolan Ryan- wild but devastating, and in need of a defense and coaching.

No need to go to religious slanders— But Romney is the pee-wee soccer player who scores on his own team.

If so, then Mitt wouldn’t have made the team as bat boy.

Interesting how in 2020 the republicans picked up 15 House seats when they were expected to lose at least that many.

I hope the people of Utah vote Romney out in 2024.

If Romney tells me to do something for the good of the country, a good rule of thumb would be to do the exact opposite.

Romney reminds me of a high school star athlete that every time I run into him all he has to talk about is his glory days in high school, forty years ago.

A conversation we have had countless times before.

It makes me want to chew my arm off to get away.

I guess the Mormons in Utah see Romeny as a representation of their God/spokesman Joseph Smith.

So says the single A player who somehow got to the pros and likes pitching intentional walks with the bases loaded.

Romney will never get the nomination. Neither will Pence or anyone else in that sniveling cabal of NWO simps.

A good rule of thumb is to place hand on belly, point to him with the other hand, have a hearty laugh, then tell him to FOAD.

Do this every time he says something, or someone says that he said something.

Romney compares Trump to past-his-prime pitching ace ...

And Romney reminds me of an adult dude who pitches in a girls' peewee softball league -- and thinks he should win the 'effing Cy Young Award because he strikes out every batter.

So a AAA player is criticizing a Hall of Famer.

Well, tell us, Romney, what’s your record? You never even got on the mound because your team rejected you.

He was so grateful Trump endorsed him.
