It's a very good political move.  If everyone holds hands and runs away, the Republicans can put Trump in a box that he can't really get out of.  Sure, he'll complain about everyone, but then he just seems like an angry loser.  The Q folks and those who are hard-line right will be seen as nuts, and eventually lose voters for being aligned with the mad king.

Mitch has done the math, and if history holds he'll be the majority leader again in 2 years.  If that happens, he'll have 3+ years in control leading up to his campaign in 2026.

What's amazing is how easy Trump is making it for them.

If Romney was secure in his faith, one would think it unnecessary to cite it as a justification for acting.

From Tuesdays State of the Union address:

"My administration is also defending religious liberty, and that includes the constitutional right to pray in public schools," he said. "In America, we don't punish prayer. We don't tear down crosses. We don't ban symbols of faith. We don't muzzle preachers and pastors. In America, we celebrate faith, we cherish religion, we lift our voices in prayer, and we raise our sights to the glory of God."

If the administration believed that, wouldn't they celebrate Mitt's apparent relationship with his creator?  Trump defends the right to practice religion in publicly funded institutions, but if that reflection leads to your not agreeing with him, you are to be punished and ostracized?  

Since you are"bumping" old comments, somewhere here in the past few weeks I asked you if you really trust Trump.  Deep down, you do believe Trump to be an honest, good, solid, religious guy? 
 
Overall, I do trust Trump to be working on the things that I consider important, more than anyone else is working on those things.

Do I think Trump's personal position on religion to be solid ?  I have my doubts.  I did read up on that during the campaign, that he was a follower of Norman Vincent Peale and attended his church.  What I do see Trump doing with religion is more the party platform than anything that he personally believes, but I can only guess and wonder about that.  And the party platform may be consistent with his own beliefs or not.

During the campaign I stated that I thought Trump was not really interested in social issues and would mostly pay lip service to those.  Earlier he had been a pro choice person for example as in it is none of the government's business.  It is a personal choice within reason and medical safety. 

His real priorities would be on economic and national security issues.  The social stuff would be a side show.

Ah, I see that you have since edited your post while I was composing this reply, no matter ...

Warning ... rant on.

If you want to put it that way.

You labeled it; partly why I saw no need to respond. Also because my previous posts already had addressed points you had made about Romney’s motivations and his references to his faith and his sworn oath.

However, I see it more, as being a politician, trying to have his cake and eat it, too. If Romney was secure in his faith, one would think it unnecessary to cite it as a justification for acting. Senator Collins cited her conscience and stopped at that. So Trump is correct. He did use his faith as a crutch as I see it.

As I said in previous posts, Romney did not reference God or his faith as telling him to vote to convict. Rather, he stated that the sworn oath to be impartial in serving as an impeachment juror was made under God and he was going to honor that oath of impartiality. He then explained why his review of the evidence led him to the conclusion he had reached. I am not religious, so I do not make references to a faith or God, but many people do without being accused of using either as a crutch — which implies weakness of an individual in need of cover. Trump made numerous references to God in his SOTU. Lastly, I do not understand your comment about having his cake and eating it, too.

Based upon my limited religious indoctrination up to 7th grade that was conducted at Thousand Oaks Baptist Church in Berkeley, California which is across the street from Thousand Oaks Elementary School that I attended from K to 3, the same school which the terrified little girl Kamala Harris was forced to go to when the democrats foisted busing upon the city, I'll attempt to pose this metaphor.

Irrelevant personal background information.

Romney, being the politician that he first and foremost is, wants to be the hero, the holiest of the holy and shame everybody else with a tactic from the progressive left with his use of blatant virtue signaling. Romney was attempting to do what the wise old King Solomon wisely refrained from doing ... cut the baby in half. In doing so, he sneeringly and self righteously raised himself above everyone else.

Much ranting here. I will try to decipher. Sure, Romney is a politician, with all that entails. So are all the other Senators. I would say that there obviously are motivations for these Senators to vote along party lines on controversial issues when the parties’ positions are diametrically opposed. We do not get much more controversial than this impeachment. So the pressure to vote with party would be strong on both sides. Bucking that, as Romney did, subjected him to what I previously predicted would be a torrent of abuse. The condemnations of GOP Senators pale in comparison. Is that counterbalanced by praise Romney is receiving from Democrats? Perhaps, but I do not see it as of equal volume and especially not of equal consequence for him. What he did make clear in his floor speech was he did consider how history would view him because of this vote. So, yes, that is a personal calculation, but don’t we want a Senator to consider how history will view his or her actions?


And the left is also trying to use Romney's "courageous and selfless act"™ to shame all the repubs in the same process, challenging their personal faith as nothing more than hollow, hypocritical and phony.

The Democrats are pointing to Romney’s vote. There is political gain in that, sure, but that does not mean Romney did not vote his conscience and based on impartial deliberation. I have not seen attacks on the personal faiths of GOP Senators. I have seen them attacked as voting party line.

You or someone else cited Romney's overt and apparently genuine sincerity as proof enough of his religious convictions ...

I said he sounded sincere in making the statement from the floor. And I said his reasoning behind his vote to convict made sense to me. I did not say either of those proved his religious bonafides. And, see my earlier part of this post response in which I describe how Romney cited his faith in explaining his determination to honor the oath of impartiality — not as the basis for his vote. An important distinction.

I'll up the Groucho quote with this one ...

Politics is show business for ugly people.
Paul Begala

imho, you've been inside the Beltway too long ...

This comes up a lot in political debates everywhere. It is a bullshit phrase devoid of relevance.

Now it's your turn, to tell me that I am delusional and hopelessly blinded by my knee jerk partisan ways.

rant off.

Yes.
 

So you were questioning his faith. Trump did that, too, today at the National Prayer Conference, denouncing him for using religion as a crutch.

John E. Sununu just made this point on Meet The Press (I might be paraphrasing the quote but the gist is accurate): “Just because Mitt Romney voted his conscience does not mean the other Republican Senators did not vote their consciences.”

The reverse , then, also would be true. 

So, again, why is Romney being assailed by Trump, other members of the GOP, and many of his supporters?

A Trump tweet from a short time ago this morning, and this one is mild compared to other condemnations of Romney and Manchin:

“They are really mad at Senator Joe Munchkin in West Virginia. He couldn’t understand the Transcripts. Romney could, but didn’t want to!”

See how he belittles Manchin by calling him “Munchkin.” That’s funny — isn’t it? Authentic! ! Manchin’s sin Was his voting for conviction when Trump apparently thought he would break ranks and vote to acquit Trump. As I said, mild for Trump. Nowhere near the humiliation of having Vindman and his twin brother perp walked out of the White House.

Yes, which is more alarming or of more consequence: Romney departing from party to cast the lone GOP vote for conviction or Trump calling for retribution against not only Romney but others, like those I named?

Obama's war on whistleblowers leaves administration insiders unscathed



Since Barack Obama entered the White House in 2009, his government has waged a war against  whistleblowers and official leakers.
On his watch, there have been  eight prosecutions under the 1917 Espionage Act – more than double those under all previous presidents combined.

More concern?  No.  Concern?  Yes.  Best to reread what I wrote.  This fawning only makes Trump stronger.  Everyone saw the evidence and make their own subjective opinions on what it means to them,  Romney is no different.   I think you underestimate the craving for authenticity which is a powerful driving force in this country right now.   It gives both Sanders and Trump their strength.   I am not talking about truth,  you can be an authentic liar and Trump has that down to a science.
