Nonapod said...: Romney won’t say if he thinks declaring national emergency is a good idea. “I think the right course is to consider common ground between the two parties. But the president indicated he’s considering that option."

Romney is trying win over a niche of people who pretend to be conservatives and are somewhere between absolutely despising Trump and just generally hating Trump. I guess it's a critical demo.; 1/11/19, 1:59 PM
Lucid-Ideas said...: Mitt Romney - the conservative that pulls out his emery board, does his nails, and is extremely offended when you accuse him of being a crypto-leftist and recently endorsed by Harry Reid s the "true voice" of GOP.

A true emery-board conservative.; 1/11/19, 2:01 PM
Drago said...: The good news for Mitt is that he has secured both Harry Reid's and LLR Chuck's approval for his antics.

So that covers the left/dems opinions.

We will have to see if any real conservatives go for it.; 1/11/19, 2:03 PM

eric said...: Trump won and Romney lost and there is a very clear reason for that.

What would it have mattered if Romney won? I mean this question seriously.

Every time a Republican wins, we still get Democrat/Liberal laws, albeit at a slower pace. It doesn't matter if Romney is the most conservative guy (he isn't, just making a point) because those conservative principles take a backseat to the principle of bipartisanship.

And this always happens and Never Trump just doesn't get it.

What happened? What about my principles!? They scream.

What they don't realize is, their highest principle is our deepest disagreement. While our principles may match up 90% of the time, the fact that all of our shared principles must die on the alter of bipartisanship means we really have no shared principles at all.; 1/11/19, 2:35 PM

I don't think "the base" of 2012 was/is the same base as 2016. I voted for Mitt and I like him but I don't understand why he would want a public war of words. It accomplishes nothing and hardens people's stances (as evidenced above).; 1/11/19, 2:40 PM

Jaq said...: Romney spent the bulk of his business career at a firm called Bain Capital. Bain Capital all but invented what is now a familiar business strategy: Take over an existing company for a short period of time, cut costs by firing employees, run up the debt, extract the wealth, and move on, sometimes leaving retirees without their earned pensions. Romney became fantastically rich doing this.. - Tucker Carlson

I used to consider this kind of criticism of Romney unfair. “He killed my wife with cancer!” But somehow I don’t really feel like defending the indefensible anymore.; 1/11/19, 3:15 PM
cubanbob said...: “I think the right course is to consider common ground between the two parties."

Mitt must think there is a compromise on what size turd is acceptable in a milk tank. I voted for the guy but clearly this just goes to show why he wasn't elected president. Trump's position is simple, national security along with border security and integrity are core functions of the government. Not optional choices. The Democrats apparently think that national security and border security and integrity are far less an important function of than say Big Bird. Trump should keep hammering that at every opportunity that the Democrats are putting Mexicans and Central Americans interests above Americans interest.; 1/11/19, 3:17 PM

On Friday, the court released a written statement saying there is no additional evidence of cancer. - Nina Democratenberg

rehajm said...: I get the impression y’all don’t much care for Romney.; 1/11/19, 3:50 PM
Lydia said...: More of what Romney actually said about this:

Romney, R-Utah, said Trump did not discuss invoking emergency powers with GOP lawmakers in a meeting Wednesday, but they all came away convinced the president won't budge on building a wall.

"He has staked out his position and he wants to build a border barrier. That's something I concur with, by the way," Romney said on KSL Newsradio's "Dave & Dujanovic" show. He said a border fence "makes all the sense in the world." ...

Romney said if Trump declares a state of emergency, the Democrats will have lost an opportunity to get things they want through negotiation.

"And I think we Republicans will be concerned that this kind of approach could be used by perhaps a Democrat president in the future, and that's not something we want to see either," he said. ...

"The right approach is for there to be some kind of deal that can be done where both sides get something that they feel is important," the senator said. "But I don't see movement to suggest that's about to happen." Like may Republicans, including those in the Utah delegation, Romney pointed out that Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, have supported building the existing 650 miles of barriers at the border.

"But they're opposed to a border wall now that President Trump is the president," Romney said. "Regardless of what you think about the particular president, you would hope that your policy thoughts, that your principles on a topic would override what you might think about the person bringing them forward." ...

Democrats, he said, are in an "awkward" position having voted for border walls in the past and now saying it's immoral to build any more.

"That just doesn't fly," Romney said.

Democrats, he said, "have painted themselves into a corner and they're having a hard time getting themselves out of that corner."; 1/11/19, 3:55 PM
Jaq said...: Romney can run in a third party to guarantee a Democrat win. That’s his goal, he can certainly do it.; 1/11/19, 4:00 PM
Gk1 said...: At least Mittens sees the same problem I do that the democrats have painted themselves into a corner and do not have an exit strategy. In poker when your bluff is called (like Trump's done) you don't get to sit there and wish you were playing parcheesi and ask the onlookers if they agree with you. Where are the great statesmen on the democrat's side that can figure a way out of this mess?; 1/11/19, 4:19 PM
Phil 314 said...: Thanks for the citation Lydia. That all makes sense and is pretty damning for the Dems.

So I guess both Dems and Trumpkins believe that if you don't provide full throated "yur damn right" support for the Trump position you're anti-Trump.

I think both sides love the fight (and both sides could have gotten the wall that they asked for at various times in the past.); 1/11/19, 4:20 PM

robother said...: The de facto common ground between the 2 parties has been open borders. That's why the 700 miles of border barrier approved and funded in 2006 never got built. Professional fundraisers and campaign managers for each party love that kind of status quo:
R's fundraise and garner votes from their base by chanting "just build the damn wall" every election cycle and D's fundraise and garner votes from their base by demonizing aforesaid Rs as racists (or in the case of blue dog Ds by parroting "just build the damn wall.")

Meanwhile, of course, they both drink at the trough of the Big Donors who benefit from low cost labor. Mitt, needless to say, is a product of that kind of politics.; 1/11/19, 4:47 PM

The Godfather said...: I favored Romney for the Republican nomination in 2008, knowing, of course, that no Republican could possibly win in that year (even Hillary! would have won if she'd gotten the Democrat nomination). I supported Romney for the GOP nomination in 2012, given that McCain was the alternative, even though I recognized that Romneycare in Mass. made it hard for him to use Obamacare effectively as a sword against Obama. I thought Obama's performance as President was SO BAD that a decent moderate alternative was all that was needed to send him off.

And I think I was right until the second Presidential debate, when Romney allowed the moderator to shut him up. What a WIMP!

Obviously Romney wants to become the anti-Trump. Equally obviously that couldn't do anything other than elect a Democrat in 2020. Bad as Trump is in many ways, he's better by orders of magnitude than any possible Democrat successor.; 1/11/19, 5:10 PM

Yancey Ward said...: Romney, I thought, would have made a good, conservative president, but he never had the fire in the belly to win. Nothing demonstrated that more than what he allowed Candy Crowley to do to him in that debate with Obama- it didn't cost him the election, it was already lost, but it encapsulated his entire general election campaign. Even worse, though, was he chose Paul Ryan for VP, a man with the same disposition. Both seem to think politics is played by gentlemen's rules- it isn't- it is a blood sport and should be treated as such.; 1/11/19, 5:25 PM
Yancey Ward said...: "There's a new word I learned today, that describes Romney's Presidential campaign. Allision"

I didn't think that even in 2012. Why did you think Romney was "Conservative"?

What was that based on? His record in Massachusetts? His run against Kennedy in '94? His opposition to Reagan in 1980?

His constant flip flops on every issue from 2007 to 2012?; 1/11/19, 6:11 PM

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: If you want to pay $5 billion for a wall doesn't stop:

1. The drugs that generally come through legal points of entry,
2. The legal entrants who become the majority of undocumented aliens here by virtue of overstaying a visa,
3. The terrorists who enter our country via airports, and not Mexico -

Then go start a Go Fund Me campaign and pay your own way on that vanity project scheme of President Hairpiece's. But I ain't wasting money like that.

If I did, I'd be a Republican. But I'm not.

Oh, that's right. Birkel doesn't make enough to be a taxpayer. Sounds like he's in the 49% or whatever figure Romney spoke about as needing all kinds of government handouts and programs - of which this is the worst one.; 1/11/19, 7:31 PM
Birkel said...: You have my full support P3T.

I encourage you to call for the removal of current border walls.; 1/11/19, 7:37 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: No need to do that; it would add cost.

But no need to add $5 billion more for no reason, either.

I guess since I'm a taxpayer, how we spend my money matters to me.

Since you aren't one, it doesn't.

Seems to be about that simple.

Go send Trump your love for his vanity projects on your own dime.; 1/11/19, 7:41 PM

No need to spend a dime.

You have my full support.; 1/11/19, 7:59 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: It's not a "position" to not care to spend my money in ways that won't stop the drugs smuggled through legal ports, visas from legal entrants being overstayed, or terrorists at the airport from not coming in through Mexico. It's just not giving a fuck.

Your true position is that you want to uphold a phony position for the guy who's ass you lick and follow into hell. Oh, and to pretend it's going to get rid of the undocumented Mexicans here who didn't, for the most, part, come through that way anyway.

Your position is to be a phony and to tell lies and spread hate. Maybe you might want to figure out why.

Lol. You're a Republican. You'll never figure out why. Distracting America is all you care for. Distracting yourself is the only way you can keep calm and keep from freaking out.; 1/11/19, 8:08 PM

What would a wall do?

Will it stop undocumented residents? (No, they come in legally and overstay visas).
Will it stop drugs? (No, those are smuggled through the entries).
Will it stop terrorists? (No, they enter America through airports).

If I support an expenditure, I can say what it does that's useful.

The Godfather said...: Some folks here say that there's a lot of illegal immigration, drug smuggling. etc., that the "Wall" won't stop. I'm sure they are right. So why aren't the Democrats proposing programs to address those problems, as an alternative to the "Wall"? They might be able to end the Government Shut-Down immediately.

Could it be that they don't really want to address problems of illegal immigration, etc., through a "Wall" or anything else?; 1/11/19, 9:05 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: It's a fact that Dreck-O lies and can't quote me saying a single such thing.

I do think there's better evidence than not that he's a blackout drunk who can't remember how aggressive he was and who made very non-judicial, politicized "scenes" during his hearings. But that's a judgment call. Dreg-O's too fair for judgment calls, you see.

But he's not too fair to lie, as anyone can see in his typically stupid 8:56 comment.; 1/11/19, 9:12 PM

Possibly not, considering the likely chemicals involved.; 1/11/19, 9:12 PM

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: And while we're on it, here's another fact: Dreck's 8:56 was posted as a way to cover-over the fact that he has no defense or justification whatsoever for Drumpf's scheme on that wall.

My 9:12 perfectly summarizes my take on Black-out Brett and one that's hard to disagree with. But I can see why you want to avoid the rational conclusion on that guy, and swerve back to more of your lies about me.

Maybe you should take a minute to actually read what you're responding to. Your rapid-fire machine gun jerking knee responses show you to be not much more intelligent than a crude AI spam-bot.

Trump won and Romney lost and there is a very clear reason for that.

What would it have mattered if Romney won? I mean this question seriously.

If Romney has won in 2012 we would have cap and trade, more stupid wars they have no intention of winning, amnesty, and “free trade” gutting our model class.

And romneycare would be “fixed.” i.e. permanent.

Because Mitt Romney is on the other side.

Qwinn said...: I think it's hilarious that PPPT's argument relies absolutely on the predicate that the TSA is so hilariously bad and incompetent that a terrorist has at least as good a chance making it into the country while being fed in single file through a full airport TSA screening as he would sneaking across any point among thousands of miles of unwalled border without getting caught by the border patrol.

I agree that they're hilariously incompetent, mind you, but I would *like* to think that *being seen* entering the country provides at least a slightly better chance of catching them than allowing them to casually sneak across anywhere along the entire border.

You claim you don't want to spend money on things that don't work, PPPT. Why aren't you protesting the entire budget of the TSA, since by your own argument they are not even fractionally better than completely unmonitored entry?; 1/12/19, 1:09 AM
Qwinn said...: I mean, if I were to try to enter the country illegally, and I had a choice of A) fly in on a plane and risk being flagged, or B) cross the border illegally anywhere there isn't a wall knowing that Democrats everywhere are fighting valiantly to make sure I can do so undetected, I'm picking B!

Apparently PPPT would pick A. Which merely proves that it's the stupider option.; 1/12/19, 1:13 AM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: With an expert like P3T on the case, I rest easy.

The difference between my expertise and yours is that I base what I think on the facts and you hold to your opinion in full defiance of those facts, or any facts.

And yet, that doesn't stop you from believing that you're right and should be listened to. Very strongly.

So you think you're an expert. Just an expert who can't hide the fact that he doesn't know a damn thing.; 1/12/19, 10:19 AM
