I knew there was something wrong with Mitt Romney, really wrong, when my mom – a daughter of Pennsylvania’s steel mill country, but a dedicated Republican, told me back in 2012, “I just don’t like him.” Of course, those steel mills are all gone now, moved to China by guys who either were, or looked exactly like, Mitt Romney. Now he’s finally calling it quits as a senator, apparently by popular demand. His departure is cause for celebration. Mitt Romney is a bad person who pretends to be a good person. He is the blow-dried embodiment of everything awful about the Republican Party that used to be.

It’s about time someone stated what we all knew. Thank you, Kurt, for the beautiful and accurate analysis of Pierre Delecto. The blow dried fop is a fraud and one day the origin of the pseudonym he gave himself will be revealed, but all I can say is that it certainly sounds like a porn star moniker. The real guy is a walking talking contradiction of the persona he puts out there for the world to see. Wait and see.

Like his father, who aspired to political power in the sixties and seventies and had to settle for spoiler, campaigning against first Goldwater and then Reagan in 68 and 76 and 80, Romney is a jock sniffer of old money ,Ivy League connections and Wall Street grifters. His hedge fund Bain Capital laundered money for third world governments and made money strangulating American businesses, driving down book values and farming jobs to Mexico, China or whomever had cheap labor. The guy who had no principles but would do anything to get into the frat, appeal to the country club membership committee. An errand boy of unlimited ambition but like the Bushes, socially awkward and disconnected if not indifferent to the people from whom government power emanates.
So he’ll spend the next sixteen months positioning for a Secretary of State spot or ambassador position with the Biden’s or any never Trump Republican as a reward for being the guy who chips away at Trump from the Republican side and keeps him from getting the nomination.
Romney and the Queen still have their eyes on a throne.
He’s not gone. He just can’t get there from Utah. He’s as dirty as Biden.

This is the most delicious takedown I’ve ever read. Schlicter has outdone himself and nails Mittens to the wall.

Not having pierre in office is a blessing, however the scourge he is will continue from the sidelines. Maybe this is a start of a new trend of getting useless "Republicans" out of office. Mitch the *itch, clown cornyn, and miss lindsey come to mind. The country could be so lucky. . .probably not. Btw, great write up, Kurt!

Good riddance to Mitt Romney, but doubt we have heard the last of him. He will likely work behind the scenes to prop up Washington and get paid well to do it. Influence peddling is big money in Washington. Guessing he will be doing everything possible to block Trump from becoming President.

My thoughts exactly! Thank you for this brutally honest - but totally deserved - portrait of poor little Mitt. His presidential run ‘way back then’ was pitiful and feckless. And he and his snippy running mate have never forgiven Trump for winning that office after their loss. Has Mitt finally gotten over himself? Probably not, but at least he’s out of our hair.

McCain, Romney down.
Just 4-5 more replaced by real Americans and we'll be good.

I heard a good one: that with Mitten's retirement announcement, the democrats were scrambling to find someone to fill his shoes.

Loved this last description of Romney:
"...condescending without any achievements to justify the attitude, confident in his own competence when he never managed to show any, and fussily certain of his own moral superiority for no apparent reason."

This spineless Mormon will forever be known for being castrated on national TV by Miss Candy, on behalf of shameless Bar…….rack.

Great article Kurt! In 2012 I was for Ron Paul. They underhanded way that Romney and the RINO old guard stole votes from Ron Paul in the primaries disgusted me. There was no way I would vote for Romney the prissy pompous puke and I couldn't vote for the other narcissist that was also a communist Muslim, Obama so I sat it out. I had the same opinion of Romney way back in 2020 as Mr. Schlichter has. Many conservative were fooled by Mitt back then, but when I talk to them now they admit they were wrong. Mitt is one of the most dishonest unlikeable men I can think of.

Ouch. Thats rough. I hope he sees it.
I began to get turned off to him when I saw him accept the nomination and he had his head tilted to the side like a little girl getting her cheek tickled with a feather. There is something about that picture that is just disturbing.

I am a MA capitalist and prior to his ever running foranything outside MA, I told people he aint the guy. My reckoning with him was whenthe MA Supreme Court decided that gay marriage was legal and we needed tomake it happen. the legislature was told topass a law and in the meantime, marriages would begin
At that point, regardless of the issue, Romney, as governor should have ceased all marriage licensing straight or gay and told the court that there are three equal branches of govt in MA and the Executive would not be told what to do.
Ifigured eitherhe really didnt undersand the MA constitution or he didnt care. Either way, he was done in my eyes

“ Romney is the kind of guy who would hang a sign reading, “In This House Black Lives Matter,” off his lawn jockey.”
Perfect! Absolutely brilliant!

Mitt and Liz Cheney are 2 peas in a pod. It would be great to never hear from them again.
