Why are the Mormons to blame? Hell, Trump himself endorsed Romney for Senate. Probably the worst move of his entire 4 years IMO.
Edit: if Mormons are to blame for Romney, then they get the credit for Orrin Hatch and the rest of the representatives and Senate. Can't have one without the other.
Because Trump doesn't make losing moves. If he's going to win anyway, it's the smart play. If the GOP establishment really turned on Trump he'd be a total lame duck.
I agree. Pierre Derilecto views his upcoming SCOTUS vote as his McCain thumbs-down moment. Derilecto craves the Democratic love that McCain received after his downvote.
Well for now most of the RINOs are against the vote, not the nominee regardless of whoever that will be. If that's their stance, then let them abstain instead of voting no. Just let them count themselves out as long as the GOP still has enough yes votes to secure the result and deliver a new justice. That's what Murkovsky did on Kavanaugh anyway.
that's actually something I didn't think about. So I may be completely ignorant to this matter, but are you saying that if some senators abstain from voting all together, then the number needed to vote yes in order to pass also is lessened? In other words, as long as it's a majority of any side?
Mitt's a lot older than he looks. In fact, he was the oldest rookie senator in history. He doesn't come up for reelection again until he's 77. He runs as a Republican in pretty much the reddest state in the union. He has tons of money. He already ran for President and lost. It's not like he has a long political career in front of him anyway.
Sounds like even without tasty peter, they still have the ability to get a judge in. They'll have to make sure voters remember that next primary in UT.
Exactly, that's why we don't need him. In the event he wants to be a sourpuss and vote against the nominee, I think the voters should be reminded later.
Excellent development. Lock in Pierre Delecto and get it on!
He is a cnut. Don't believe that he will support GEOTUS
I've always thought there was fraud involved in Mitt's primary win. His opponent was perfect.
Mormon, father of 8, both a doctor and a lawyer, experience in the state legislature. Romney and the good old boys cheated.
Don't forget, his niece runs the GOP.
Been rampant cheating going of years. The only reason we have Trump is our turnout was so great.
I agree, Utah is almost completely based. Romney is a powerful man in Utah whether we like it or not.

Romney is a turncoat, bred from Michigan Republican stock.
He bamboozled me as well in 2012.

Trump is too nice. Always gives people second chances and hopes they will do things better this time.
But as he said, politicians are so much more dishonest than businessmen.
This.
Nah, they're ok - it's just Romney that's a dick.
3 Utah Mormons downvoted you
He has been the most Loyal Out Of All The Disloyal.
Quite the achievement there.

Hopefully, the Turtle can turn cuckboy into Stormin' Mormon for at least one crucial vote.
If Mitt acts like a little bitch at this crucial moment, he can kiss his political career good bye forever
I don't see how he hasn't already. At this point his cuckery is just getting more ridicule.
It wasn't going anywhere already tho. He's the Megyn Kelley of senators.
Hilarious
He'll get reelected again. All he needs to do is pander for a few months before his election
IF the senate start the vote for the new judge, everyone will see what Mitt Romney does and he will have nowhere to hide. His name will be everywhere
The Lindsey Graham plan.

If Mitt ever has any intention at all of representing his state he has to vote to confirm
I don't know if he cares about his legacy or the way people remember him, but siding with the Ds here would seal it for all time
Mitt walks with marxists now.
We're talking about GOP, not democrat votes. We know where Pierre stands.

Remember we just need 50. Pence can cast the deciding vote in the event of a tie.
True. I'd prefer a non vote to a no, obviously.
