What an odd thing to say about a President with the worst economic record since Hoover.

What part of the constitution exactly?
How about declaring wars without congressional approval? Romney was a BIG fan of that one!
Love how scared the uniparty is though. Trump was very bad for business and its going to be even worse for the scum that took control of the west and subjugated its people.

Perhaps Romney’s most surprising discovery upon entering the Senate was that his disgust with Trump was not unique among his Republican colleagues. “Almost without exception,” he told me, “they shared my view of the president.” In public, of course, they played their parts as Trump loyalists, often contorting themselves rhetorically to defend the president’s most indefensible behavior. But in private, they ridiculed his ignorance, rolled their eyes at his antics, and made incisive observations about his warped, toddler*like psyche. Romney recalled one senior Republican senator frankly admitting, “He has none of the qualities you would want in a president, and all of the qualities you wouldn’t.”
This dissonance soon wore on Romney’s patience. Every time he publicly criticized Trump, it seemed, some Republican senator would smarmily sidle up to him in private and express solidarity. “I sure wish I could do what you do,” they’d say, or “Gosh, I wish I had the constituency you have,” and then they’d look at him expectantly, as if waiting for Romney to convey profound gratitude. This happened so often that he started keeping a tally; at one point, he told his staff that he’d had more than a dozen similar exchanges. He developed a go-to response for such occasions: “There are worse things than losing an election. Take it from somebody who knows.”
One afternoon in March 2019, Trump paid a visit to the Senate Republicans’ weekly caucus lunch. He was in a buoyant mood—two days earlier, the Justice Department had announced that the much-anticipated report from Special Counsel Robert Mueller failed to establish collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election. As Romney later wrote in his journal, the president was met with a standing ovation fit for a conquering hero, and then launched into some rambling remarks. He talked about the so-called Russia hoax and relitigated the recent midterm elections and swung wildly from one tangent to another. He declared, somewhat implausibly, that the GOP would soon become “the party of health care.” The senators were respectful and attentive.
As soon as Trump left, Romney recalled, the Republican caucus burst into laughter.

You're completely out of the loop.
Young people are FLOCKING to a more populist message over the trash traditional GOP message. The traditional candidates will continue to run in single digits in national primaries. Soon we take our message out in force at the state/local level.
NY college - I see you are still lagging behind in understanding data.
I'll continue to do my best to truly educate you.

I've been teaching in flyover country the past two years. Red state.
Is this like 'Red States have higher crime' and its really just a collection of ****ty blue city areas?
Romney saw the writing on the wall and he is crying like the bitch he is on the way out.
Good riddance.
