It is long past time to kick Romney out of the Republican Party. We need GOP leadership to take this move, now -- or at least raise it at the Convention.
One guy put up three billboards on Valentine's Day asking Romney to resign. That was after all but one billboard company refused to take his business and the one remaining said he had to have a lawyer.
People here are terrified of Mutt, who is armed to the teeth with lawyers.
The cucks of Utah will likely elect another RINO as the next governor - Spencer Cox.
Had a conversation in the local SLC camera store today with one of the salesmen there about how Utah was importing California's politics.
Yep. I also refused to let Mittens #MeToo back then. The rest of my family refused to wake up in 2012, and then they were bewildered that he would make the choices he did after he replaced Hatch & president Trump endorsed him.
I am hoping that the member here in Utah are waking up to his BS.
Unfortunately they fell into the Cox trap. I am not a fan at all of the Huntsman alternative here, but we let our primaries get riged 10 years ago.
In 2013 I'd say "thanks for giving us Obama." But seeing how Obama's atrocious 8 years ushered in Donald J. Trump I now say, "Good thing you pouted at home and let Obama win."
That damned count my vote BS killed great Utah Republican primaries. IIRC it didn't get enough traction to really make it, but then they switched to make it so previously elected officials ended up only needing to get a small number of signed petitions to get on a general ballot where mass marketing almost always wins.
Agree AND disagree. Voting him out or, preferably, recalling him from the Senate would be ideal and that's 100% on the people of Utah. Meanwhile it would send a powerful message to the other RINOs to kick Mittens out of the party. Just eject him. He's nothing but an obstructionist.
The party has a set of platforms that it says it holds to. They need to kick anyone out who disagrees with those. Get rid of the RINOs. Yes Utah needs to vote him out, but what's the point of the parties if they don't uphold their own standards.
He should have been kicked out when the Pierre Delecto story came out.
How the fuck are you going to allow a sitting senator to create a fake social media account to talk shit on the president, who is from his own party? At least according to the letter after Delecto's name.
That's probably the only thing I like about Canadian politics. If any MP goes against the party leader, he could be expelled from the caucus on the spot and forced into a runoff election as an independent to get rid of them for good.
This is why I give Collins a break when it comes to his anti-Trump rhetoric.
I am actually ok with Collins being anti-Trump if it means keeping that (practically guaranteed blue) seat from the Democrats. Also while Collins is anti-Trump he is at least willing to vote along party lines when it matters the most (Supreme Court and Impeachment).
He also knows that his vote is semi-expendable as even without his support the Republicans have a majority in the senate so it is safe for him to not vote Trump.
There are certain RINOs in Congress that I am willing to give pass to.
People like Collins have a purpose even if they oppose trump, they will vote along party lines when the chips are down.
But people like Romney (who get elected in a very red districts of a red states) have NO excuse for being anti-Trump other than that they are globalists and are in on the scam.
This is why I differentiate between a Liberal Republican (Collins) and Globalist Republican (Romney). One gets a pass while the other needs to be condemned.
Where would it stop and would you be able to make it stop there? Liberals are joining the Party, so once this starts, they can shape it into a new Democrat Party, so we would have only Democrats and Socialists.
this is why the LP needs to be viable. a conservative return to small government. if we don't have a home in the republican party because of its increasingly neocon-ness then we need to either push back hard against it OR take over the LP
I was a long time big L Libertarian for a long time, then a little l libertarian, and now, I'm a libertarian Trump populist.
The Libertarian Party has been corrupted, it's not the Ron Paul purists anymore, hasn't been for a decade. Trump looked at John Anderson, Ross Perot, and Ron Paul, and figured his best move was to hijack one of the main political parties, so that's what he did.
We took the party over from the McCains, Romneys, Bushes, etc., and they and their "Lincoln Project" cohorts are just going away mad, stomping their feet, because 'their' party isn't theirs anymore.
[insert Captain Phillips meme] "Look at me. Trump is GOP Captain now."
I'm surprised he didn't get the Amash treatment when he came out in favor of impeachment. Most of the never trumpers in the party other than him and Amash had the good sense to not let their personal issues go public and potentially tank the party. The others also had the sense not to back a bullshit impeachment based on fabricated bullshit and "ORANGE MAN BAD".
^^This^^ Not sure if those on here are ignorant to this fact or purposely ignoring it. Romney begged the POTUS for an endorsement. POTUS gave it to him. Utah is so Republican that the primary is all you have to win.
An assault on Utah for voting Romney is an attack on Donald Trump who endorsed him. But concerned trolls will be concerned.
Yes. It's up to Utah to keep him or vote him out, but its up to the party to decide if he belongs. He does not. Kick him out and if Utah wants to re elect the jealous mormon as an independent then that is on them.
LOL if you're asking Romney to leave, you have about 50 something others in the Senate alone you should ask to leave, too. They're all on the same team, he's just the one that takes it on the chin.
I agree, asking him to leave is unproductive. Not giving him a speaking spot at the convention, on the other hand....that is very reasonable. Do bullshit, and you shouldn't be rewarded for that. He should have to buy a ticket like any other spectator who is not a part of the proceedings.
And in these primaries, the people of the fucking STATE he is running in can decide at that time if he is the proper candidate to represent their party.
If the voters in that party at the state level are fucktards and cant handle doing that sensibly, then they have to live with the asshat they chose until the NEXT primary.
The original point of the US Senate was to represent the state's interest first and foremost over the mob. This is why originally state legislators elected their representative and would recall the senator if he were misbehaving.
Then the progressive movement was hijacked by Marxists and they pushed to change this to direct vote so they could more easily manipulate popular elections rather than more hardened state legislators. That's when things went down hill and you got the federal reserve act and the income tax bill which killed off much of our freedoms.
They need to shun him like the Aimish do. Imagine how huniliating it would be for Romney if on every televised Senate session the Rebulicans turned their back on him when he walked in the room. Or completely acted as if he were invisible?
How long do you think it would take MIttens to break down in the face of unified publuc condemnation by complete silence from others and complete public rejection by his own party?
I also don’t agree. I think we should have a new party with those who truly put Americans first and follow the Constitution and fracture from the GOP. Leave the corrupt leadership and wimpy seat warmers in the dust.
Exactly. If the people of Utah want a treasonous satanic pedophile to represent them, so be it.
Not sure if referring to Romney, Joseph Smith, or Brigham Young.....
Romney probably thinks he's holier than Joseph Smith and Brigham Young.
Dum dum dum dum dum...
Trolololol
yes
Joseph Smith fuck frog, Brigham Young clitface shit come out the butt Jesus says fuck fuck mormons!!!!!

Believe me people here in Utah have tried.
One guy put up three billboards on Valentine's Day asking Romney to resign. That was after all but one billboard company refused to take his business and the one remaining said he had to have a lawyer.

If there's one thing that's more certain than a black person voting Democrat, it's a Mormon voting for a Mormon. Any Mormon.
It's one of the big reasons why I abstained when it came time for the 2012 Election.
I Gary Johnson'ed it.
"What is Aleppo??"
Yep. I also refused to let Mittens #MeToo back then. The rest of my family refused to wake up in 2012, and then they were bewildered that he would make the choices he did after he replaced Hatch & president Trump endorsed him.

Hey me too! Not this time around though!
In 2013 I'd say "thanks for giving us Obama." But seeing how Obama's atrocious 8 years ushered in Donald J. Trump I now say, "Good thing you pouted at home and let Obama win."
Time sure changes things.
Truth be told, I could not in good conscious vote for Romney so I abstained.
That said, I can definitely understand why some would feel pissed off (or betrayed) about abstaining in that vote.
Although thanks to Washington's screwy primary voting, I got to vote against HRC twice! =D
Ron Paul missed you and his son Rand when he got Bernied

TRUMP ENDORSED HIM FAGGOT
DO THEY SUPPORT TRUMP?
No its impossible to pieces of trash who just want excuses to bash religion they dont even know about.
Yes, they are trying to grab the fleeing California tech jobs.
That damned count my vote BS killed great Utah Republican primaries. IIRC it didn't get enough traction to really make it, but then they switched to make it so previously elected officials ended up only needing to get a small number of signed petitions to get on a general ballot where mass marketing almost always wins.
We allowed big money to corrupt the best primary.
If elections changed anything, they wouldnt let you have them.
Agree AND disagree. Voting him out or, preferably, recalling him from the Senate would be ideal and that's 100% on the people of Utah. Meanwhile it would send a powerful message to the other RINOs to kick Mittens out of the party. Just eject him. He's nothing but an obstructionist.

On one hand I wish there were purity tests for parties so we can remove traitors from our ranks.
But on the other hand such a thing has 2 outcomes.
1.) Civil War (because both parties become radicalized to the point of conflict)
2.) Party Collapses (because of purity death spiral)
He should have been kicked out when the Pierre Delecto story came out.
How the fuck are you going to allow a sitting senator to create a fake social media account to talk shit on the president, who is from his own party? At least according to the letter after Delecto's name.
When he voted to impeach Trump, they should have kicked him out right then.
Is he in the line of succession for the presidency? Does that make him military? Maybe a court martial?
Zero chance of that happening currently. His niece (Ronna McDaniel) is chairwoman of the RNC
The swamp runs deep
In all fairness to Ronna, she has been loud and vocal with criticism of her uncle.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/congress/not-so-niece-gop-chairwoman-goes-after-romney-her-uncle-for-his-trump-criticism
Yeah, but who knows if that's real. Maybe she's just staying in the good graces of GEOTUS for strategic reasons.
She could be playing "good cop". RINOs = Death to America.
That's probably the only thing I like about Canadian politics. If any MP goes against the party leader, he could be expelled from the caucus on the spot and forced into a runoff election as an independent to get rid of them for good.
Not ask, throw him out. We're too domesticated. Sad...
He's a Massachusetts Republican, aka a RINO. The only way you'll ever be red in a blue state is by being leftist and wearing the republican badge.
This is why I give Collins a break when it comes to his anti-Trump rhetoric.
I am actually ok with Collins being anti-Trump if it means keeping that (practically guaranteed blue) seat from the Democrats. Also while Collins is anti-Trump he is at least willing to vote along party lines when it matters the most (Supreme Court and Impeachment).
He also knows that his vote is semi-expendable as even without his support the Republicans have a majority in the senate so it is safe for him to not vote Trump.
The same applies to VT - their governor, a republican in a deep blue state, is extremely anti Trump. But he's well received in the state
There are certain RINOs in Congress that I am willing to give pass to.
People like Collins have a purpose even if they oppose trump, they will vote along party lines when the chips are down.

[insert Captain Phillips meme] "Look at me. Trump is GOP Captain now."
Same, Trump is the first time in my life that I voted for major party. The Libertarians have been hijacked by anarcho pot smokers
Ask?
Demand, force.
I'm surprised he didn't get the Amash treatment when he came out in favor of impeachment. Most of the never trumpers in the party other than him and Amash had the good sense to not let their personal issues go public and potentially tank the party. The others also had the sense not to back a bullshit impeachment based on fabricated bullshit and "ORANGE MAN BAD".
Ask? No. Kick him the fuck out.
I'm sure the GOP will get right on it 🙄
Fuck Mitt Romney.
I'm ashamed that I ever voted for that loser. But in my defense Obama was the alternative so...
What's this "ask" bullshit? Expel him from the party.
They are the nicest people you could meet but are complete sheep in the way they follow their political leaders.
'Let the door knock you out stone cold on the way out.'
Trump endorsed him, he pulled the wool over everyone's eyes.
^^This^^ Not sure if those on here are ignorant to this fact or purposely ignoring it. Romney begged the POTUS for an endorsement. POTUS gave it to him. Utah is so Republican that the primary is all you have to win.

The people of Utah have to do that. The party can't just kick elected officials out of the party.
What do you mean "ask"?
LOL if you're asking Romney to leave, you have about 50 something others in the Senate alone you should ask to leave, too. They're all on the same team, he's just the one that takes it on the chin.
I agree, asking him to leave is unproductive. Not giving him a speaking spot at the convention, on the other hand....that is very reasonable. Do bullshit, and you shouldn't be rewarded for that. He should have to buy a ticket like any other spectator who is not a part of the proceedings.
Not yet, first get the recall through the courts.
ASK him to leave? Kick that hand wringing faggot out!
thats not how it works.
We have these things called PRIMARIES.
And in these primaries, the people of the fucking STATE he is running in can decide at that time if he is the proper candidate to represent their party.
If the voters in that party at the state level are fucktards and cant handle doing that sensibly, then they have to live with the asshat they chose until the NEXT primary.
I'd rather see Trump form his own party. I will never trust Republicans (or Democrats, or Libertarians).
His niece is still leading the RNC.
The original point of the US Senate was to represent the state's interest first and foremost over the mob. This is why originally state legislators elected their representative and would recall the senator if he were misbehaving.
Then the progressive movement was hijacked by Marxists and they pushed to change this to direct vote so they could more easily manipulate popular elections rather than more hardened state legislators. That's when things went down hill and you got the federal reserve act and the income tax bill which killed off much of our freedoms.
He should have been expelled a long time ago. You should watch Michael Knowles' criticism of Romney. He explains how Romney has never been principled.
His Niece wouldn't allow it.
Why did Utah not immediately recall his cuck traitor ass?
Oops Schumer 's butt
No, I don’t agree. But he needs to be primaried.
They need to shun him like the Aimish do. Imagine how huniliating it would be for Romney if on every televised Senate session the Rebulicans turned their back on him when he walked in the room. Or completely acted as if he were invisible?
How long do you think it would take MIttens to break down in the face of unified publuc condemnation by complete silence from others and complete public rejection by his own party?
I also don’t agree. I think we should have a new party with those who truly put Americans first and follow the Constitution and fracture from the GOP. Leave the corrupt leadership and wimpy seat warmers in the dust.
Defund his Republican privileges.
They could actually make it an open invitation for all RINOs to depart, because once we sweep the Dems, we are coming for the RINOs too.
Toss the cunt head first off the 5th floor.
I think he needs to be investigated for his obviously illegal activities. Then he can serve time in jail and lose his seat to a republican.
Use him as much as we can until we can properly primary him.
How can we do that? Isn’t it his niece that’s actually running the Republican National Committee?
The GOP should deny him funding and material support, but the state of Utah has to vote him out
They're no different than him when the camera is off.
