Trump calls for Romney’s impeachment in Saturday Twitter storm

SALT LAKE CITY — President Donald Trump unleashed a storm of tweets Saturday against Sen. Mitt Romney, calling the Utah Republican names and ending his last missive with “#IMPEACHMITTROMNEY.”

The stream of invective began at about 8 a.m. with the president defending his phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, which is at the center of a House impeachment inquiry, and his asking China to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son.

About 10 minutes later the president got a little nastier, calling Romney a “pompous ‘ass’” who “begged” for Trump’s endorsement in his 2012 presidential race and for the secretary of state post after Trump won in 2016. Then about five hours later, Trump lit in to Utah’s junior senator suggesting he should be impeached.

A senator can’t be impeached. The Senate and the House can expel one of its members with a two-thirds vote.

And the president’s tweets are unlikely to ignite a campaign against Romney, who easily won his Senate seat with more than 64% of the vote.

Proof positive that Crooked donnie is a moronic imbecile. But of course deporables will spin it every way to make him look good which is sad and pathetic.

What is comical is at one time Romney was their hero. He was supposed to be president.

Now they are torn and it is like they have to pick a side. If they side with Romney they are going against their base. If they side with trump they are going against their decency.

Maybe some people are not blind partisans. I can actually agree with someone on the other side of the isle at times.

I don't hate everyone on the right just because...

I do not call them my enemy nor do I ask for their destruction...unlike some.

I had nothing against McCain...I was on the fence on who to vote for and thought it was ingenious for him to pick a woman running mate, but unfortunately he picked the screeching hillbilly harpy and the one thing she said that to this day still pisses me off is her folksy bullshit about the "real america"....I live in the real America, in suburban America.  She made it sound like anyone that didn't live in rural America isn't a real American.

You are the one that came into the conversation with complete falsehoods and hyperbole. Then call others something when they respond. Typical.

hillbilly harpy

She was the vote-changer for me, too.  The thought of that hypocritical alcoholic idiot as POTUS, should something happen to McCain, was just too much.  It was an insult to women - to think that we would vote for her just because she was a woman.  We needed the right woman, and she most definitely was not the right woman.

If you admit you're engaging in hyperbole, then you're also admitting it's not true.

It can't be both.

I thought you said you knew what hyperbole was.  It seems not.

No I feel the same way I did about about Romney when I voted for him my view hasn't changed.I do see the change in some on the lefts  opinion of Romney  just like John McCain he sucked till he agreed with them to funny.

this is what you said in your post 4.1.5 and I responded

I didn't say it was, I was giving you my honest assessment of John McCain and that I never hated him being that I'm on the left.

Your hyperbole was in saying that anybody on the left sees Romney as the second coming.  Nobody does.  Probably not even anybody on the right sees him that way.    When you said Ender was being defensive, that was a personal attack.  Not a severe one, and one easily dismissed by a quick reading of your own words.

Ender objects to your refusal or inability to own and substantiate your own words, which were partisan, while accusing others of being hyperpartisan while they are actually demonstrating that they are not by agreeing with Romney (or McCain).

Was it directed at you personally the answer NO.

Good grief, MUVA - PUBLIC FORUM.  You're commenting on a thread originated by lady in black, and you made a comment about the opinions of people on the left.  As a person on the left, she responded to you, on her own damn thread.

Do you even carry on conversations?  Do you know how they work?

This is how discussions work on public forums.  You comment, and anybody else can respond.  It doesn't matter if you addressed them specifically.  If you only want people to respond to you whom you have addressed first, try chat or private notes.

You and many others here,

have repeatedly said that voting for Trump was a vote against the terribly evil, evil witch named Hillary.

In other words a choice between two badly flawed candidates based on partisanship.

Favoring McCain or Romney over Trump is absolutely no different among voters of either party.

If you feel the same about those on the right who favor Romney over Trump  you should state that also.

Its been obvious for a while now that Trump has had mental problems-- but recently they've obviously gotten considerably worse :-(

Trump knows that his supporters will love his ability to deflect everything including impeachment.

I wonder who The Donald will want to impeach next.

I would love to have been a fly on the wall when he visited with a group of children who were coloring the American flag and he colored it incorrectly. He colored one of the stripes on the American flag blue .

All the kids at that table colored them correctly.

That is likely due to his great "unmatched wisdom".  /s
