The last Republican – Digby's Hullabaloo

Mitt Romney makes the impeachment of Trump bipartisan. Good for him:

BREAKING: Sen. Mitt Romney: "The grave question the Constitution tasks senators to answer is whether the president committed an act so extreme and egregious that it rises to the level of a high crime and misdemeanor. Yes, he did." https://t.co/8m638DhtK1 pic.twitter.com/iv9IjaZHB8

Romney is a Republican. He’s not my kind of guy. But for the nominee of the party just 7 years ago to vote to remove the current GOP president from office is highly symbolic.

This shows just how far the Republican party has sunk into Trump’s cult of personality. Just ask Romney:

Mitt Romney is forever bitter that he will never be POTUS. He was too weak to beat the Democrats then so he’s joining them now.

He’s now officially a member of the resistance & should be expelled from the @GOP.
