“A thought or a notion comes in and it comes out of his mouth. There’s not a lot of filter that goes on,” he said of Trump.
Some Republicans have read former President Donald Trump’s comment last week that would act as a dictator only on “day one,” as just another Trumpian quip. But not Sen. Mitt Romney.
“His behavior suggests that this is a person who will impose his will if he can on the judicial system, on the legislative branch and on the entire nation,” Romney (R-Utah) told NBC’s Kristin Welker during an interview on “Meet the Press” on Sunday.
“When he called people to come to Washington, D.C., on January 6, that was not a random date. That was the date when peaceful transfer of power was to occur. He called that on purpose. No question he has authoritarian rulings and interests and notions which he will try and impose,” Romney said.
Yea, and Romney was probably one of the few people that could’ve stopped him. He was a rare repub that was safe from being primaried in Utah, they just loved him too much. He could’ve attacked with impunity, where people like Liz Cheney got thrown out for their disloyalty.
Instead he’s retiring.
He could split the ticket in 2024. Cheney too.
That’s my hope anyway.
And instead I’m like: why the fuck do I care what Romney feels? And then skipped the rest of the article.
