Making Mitt the example

His head is now on a metaphorical pike:

Real Clear politics reports:

The conservative group “Club For Growth” is reportedly spending $40,000 to air this ad online and on FOX News in Utah attacking Sen. Mitt Romney as a “Democrat secret asset” who is “plotting to take down President Trump with impeachment.”

“Slick, slippery, stealthy: Mitt Romney had us fooled… Posing as Republican, he tried to infiltrate Trump’s administration as Secretary of State,” the narrator says.

“Now his cover’s blown. Exposed by news reports as a Democrat secret asset. Sources say Romney’s plotting to take down President Trump with impeachment. Tell Romney, quit colluding with Democrats on impeachment,” it says, showing Romney in sunglasses and displaying his office phone number.

Mitt’s not up for re-election and he has very little to fear from this. It’s a shot across the bow to anyone who might be thinking of crossing Dear Leader.

That ad is from the Club for Growth. You remember the tax slashing deficit scolds? Yeah, it turns out they aren’t concerned about that second thing at all. For now. They will be on a full-blown anti-deficit crusade if a Democrat takes office.

And Mitt will undoubtedly be with them.
