Romney Says GOP Senators Literally Laughed Out Loud At Trump Behind His Back: ‘Caucus Burst Into Laughter’

Mitt Romney revealed that Senate Republicans often enjoyed private laughs at the expense of former President Donald Trump.

He has none of the qualities you would want in a President and all of the qualities you wouldn’t.

This is just confirmation of what we already know. The only people who respect Trump are the idiot MAGA base. It also goes to show how weak and spineless the Republicans are. Very few of them are willing to say what they actually think publicly. And all of them are hoping the charges stick so they can be rid of Trump. It’s incredibly sad. I have lost a lot of respect for them. Disagreeing on politics is fine but, when you endanger the country by letting an authoritarian toddler take over your party that places you in a different category.

I can’t even imagine the shame Ted Cruz must feel. These are educated people in the Senate. And educated people know how terrible Trump is. It’s like Tucker privately mocking Trump and his Presidency saying:

I hate him passionately

The lack of courage is astounding.

Cruz didn't have the balls to man up when Trump made fun of his wife in public.

So nobody actually cares what Cruz thinks.

Yeah, Cruz is just an obvious example of a Senator who cucks himself to Trump and goes home emasculated, to cry himself to sleep
 
All that article tells us is stuff we already know: The bulk of the Senate Republicans were/are never Trumpers...but pretend(ed) otherwise.

However, this isn't something Romney didn't know about before he ran for the Senate. He's lying, which isn't surprising. What is surprising is that he admits their duplicity now. I guess he realizes that the Republican rank and file has all the proof of them being never Trumpers they need and...like him...their days are numbered.
 
Kevin McCarthy just endorsed Trump because he is afraid of trump. Im sure in private he think trump is an ass.
 

It’s confirmation that Senate Republicans publicly bend the knee to Trump and privately think he’s an ignorant buffoon. It’s confirmation they have no courage and no spine.
 

The bold bears highlighting.

2-faced scum like Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell are on the record denying mango MAGAt magnet...when it suits them...the 'red text' is also true.
 

Say what????
Pierre De Lecto is being petty again in his next book he hopes to peddle to the Trump haters?

Mitt Romney critical of Senate colleagues in forthcoming book: ‘Don’t know that I can disrespect someone more’

An often guarded Sen. Mitt Romney let loose and spilled the beans on his Senate GOP peers.

This of course is the same Mitt Romney that dropped to his knees and begged for a cabinet position and then later his campaign endorsement.

Its ok...Kamala Harris outed Joe as a racist before she did her usual political bob and swallow.

That’s why he has 11% of their endorsements, 15 months out.

Right. That's if you believe those endorsements.

Like Romney said..."In public, of course, they played their parts as Trump loyalists".
 
Romney?

He is irrelevant as they come.

Politics is all theater.
 
Romney read the writing on the wall. He knew he'd be primaried, lose the nomination all because he voted to convict tfg twice so he decided to take out other GOP lawmakers with him. Former guy took 58.1 % to Biden's 37.6%. So much for religiosity in Utah.

Good deflection. I think it might enjoy more success if you post a picture of her "cackling" in some manner. I'm sure you can photoshop something that gets the base excited. Remember that when deflecting to Kamala Harris, most people don't have a strong visual impression of her so you need to step in and really bolster your whataboutism with some media assets.

Video clip would be better, if you're going for a winning deflection, but a picture will get the job done.
 
It's why these revelations do nothing for those who make them; especially if they think this is some kind of redemption. These folks were enabling Trump because they wanted to get their policies passed through legislation and never bothered to push back on Trump when it mattered, it's a lack of courage indeed. It just makes them a bunch of opportunists too scared of the bully they backed; toadies are even worse than the bullies.

In a moment of courage, he once said he was responsible for 1/6.
