Mitt Romney Sure Insults A Lot Of His Fellow Republicans In New Biography

On Thursday, Politico Playbook published a sprinkling of Sen. Mitt Romney’s dunks on his Republican colleagues in a new book about the senator ― and they’re hilariously brutal.Advance excerpts from journalist McKay Coppins’ biography about the retiring Utah Republican suggest Romney goes scorched-earth on a great many GOP hotshots, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.For instance, he gives DeSantis a real drubbing, saying the Florida governor has “no warmth at all” and “looks like he’s got a toothache,” according to Politico.Romney reportedly concedes that DeSantis is “much smarter than Trump,” but then poses a rhetorical question: “Do you want an authoritarian who’s smart or one who’s not smart?” Meanwhile, Romney apparently says Cruz is “frightening,” “scary” and...

Mitt Romney Calls Out GOP Hypocrisy On Spending

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) called out his own party ahead of a looming fight with Democrats over government funding that is set to take place once Congress returns next month from its annual summer recess.

Mitt Romney Gets Mocked Into Next Week Over His Ode to the Hot Dog – RedState

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) has done a lot of cringeworthy things over the years, and in my opinion, he’s truly earned the title of “Republican in Name Only” that some have given him. One of his most offensive moves was to vote in favor of the impeachment of President Donald Trump over his question about Joe Biden’s corruption. But on a day when we saw his fellow senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) release the FD-1023 bribery form that further showed evidence of Biden’s corruption, an FBI official’s statement confirmed that the FBI knew the laptop was real yet FBI agents were told not to reveal that information, and the Weaponization Committee took on the censorship of people like Robert F. Kennedy Jr, what did Mitt Romney go viral for talking about? Hot dogs. I’m not sure what his people were t...
