Shit on Mitt!
Democrats are singing the praises of failed GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney after he sided with Joe Biden and his crooked son while attacking President Trump.
The vacuous gasbag who was just elected to the U.S Senate ripped into Trump for asking the Chinese government to look into potential corruption involving the Biden crime family and specifically, cokehead Hunter Biden.
Son of Biden’s shady dealings with Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings – which also boasted of Romney’s former CIA spook adviser as a board member – have already roiled the Biden presidential campaign after Trump made it clear that he wanted to get to the bottom of things.

So in swooped mighty Mitt to white knight for the Bidens whose dirty dealings have now come back to bite them both in the ass and blow a smoking hole in the White House hopes of the only “electable” Democrat in the 2020 clown show.
By all appearances, the President’s brazen and unprecedented appeal to China and to Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden is wrong and appalling.

Via The Hill, “Romney: Trump requesting Biden investigation from China, Ukraine ‘wrong and appalling'”:
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Friday broke sharply with President Trump’s call for China and Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, calling it “wrong and appalling.”
“When the only American citizen President Trump singles out for China’s investigation is his political opponent in the midst of the Democratic nomination process, it strains credulity to suggest that it is anything other than politically motivated,” Romney said in a statement, which he also tweeted out.
The day before, Trump floated to reporters outside of the White House that the two countries should probe Biden, the Democratic 2020 front-runner, and his son, Hunter Biden, even as House Democrats work on an impeachment inquiry centered on allegations that Trump sought to withhold aid to Ukraine as an effort to get Kiev to launch a probe.
It appears that the sore loser who gagged up a winnable election in 2012 when he handed Barack Obama four more years to destroy the country was greatly offended by Trump’s Friday morning tweet stating that he has an “obligation to end CORRUPTION” and if that means enlisting foreign help, that is what he is going to do.
As President I have an obligation to end CORRUPTION, even if that means requesting the help of a foreign country or countries. It is done all the time. This has NOTHING to do with politics or a political campaign against the Bidens. This does have to do with their corruption!

The nominal Republican and former governor of ultra-liberal Massachusetts has now become the latest hero of the resistance which once mocked him ruthlessly for his “binders of women” comment during a 2012 debate with Obama.
But now Mitt is THE MAN.

Deeply concerned that POTUS put our national security at risk by withholding security assistance to counter Russian aggression for his own personal gain. All Americans should be concerned by these actions, which GOP Senator Romney called deeply troubling. pic.twitter.com/OommSpxvRZ

Romney takes a lot of (deserved) criticism for not speaking out on Trump more, but this is way, way further than most Senate Republicans are going. It's an important start, and a signal to his colleagues that won't be alone if they speak out.
So good for Romney. https://t.co/XSLt4OrBXV

Mitt Romney succeeded at everything he did in life: academics, business, family life. The presidency eluded him, but he can gain a place in history greater than many presidents by his actions over the next 12 months.

Romney never had the cojones to man up with the rest of the 2016 GOP candidates who became cannon fodder for Trump but rather chose to snipe at the iconoclastic businessman from the sidelines and recruit others to do his dirty work for him.
Instead of being a team player, once Mitt got to the Senate he quickly replaced John McCain and Jeff Flake as the most vocal “Republican” critics of the man that he never had to the guts to face on a debate stage.
Look for Romney to get a lot of love from the Democrats and their winged monkeys in the media because if impeachment has a ghost of a chance in the upper chamber of Congress, it will be up to Mitt to lead enough traitors to get to 67 votes.
In the words of the late, great American writer H.L. Mencken – “Imagine a gentleman and you will have imagined everything that he is not” which pretty much nails the slimy carpetbagger Romney.
