Willard Mitt Romney trying to bring down Trump via impeachment

With the cowardly Democrats too chicken to vote on an impeachment inquiry in the House, there really isn’t much to worry about when it comes to impeachment. Even if the cowardly Democrats do eventually vote on and pass the impeachment inquiry, nothing will likely happen other than endless investigations and wasted tax payer money. In the Senate, you would need 67 votes to actually remove Trump from office. With under 50 Democrats in the Senate, that will never happen. But there are backstabbers in the Senate trying to use the impeachment BS to bring down Trump. One of whom, as you guessed it is none other than Willard Mittens Romney. The coward knows he would have no chance in a primary against Trump, so he’s plotting behind the scenes to hurt him somehow in the Senate. Willard Mitthens Romney would have a couple of allies like Ben sASSe, Susan Collins and maybe one or two other RINO cowards. But they will wouldn’t ever get enough votes to convict and throw him out of office. Whatever Romney tries to pull, it will hurt him far more than it would Trump.

According to people close to Romney, he’s firmly decided against primarying Trump, an enterprise he believes to be a sure loser given Trump’s enduring GOP support. Romney has also told people that, as an unsuccessful two-time presidential candidate, he’s the wrong person to take on Trump. Instead, a Romney adviser told me, Romney believes he has more potential power as a senator who will decide Trump’s fate in an impeachment trial. “He could have tremendous influence in the impeachment process as the lone voice of conscience in the Republican caucus,” the adviser said. In recent days, Romney has been reaching out privately to key players in the Republican resistance, according to a person briefed on the conversations. “Romney is the one guy who could bring along Susan Collins, Cory Gardner, Ben Sasse. Romney is the pressure point in the impeachment process. That’s why the things he’s saying are freaking Republicans out.” (Romney, through a spokesperson, declined to comment.)

GOP elected officials and donors are privately war-gaming what an endgame for Trump would look like. “It’s clear the House is going to impeach,” the prominent Republican told me. Making matters worse for Trump, a policy wedge has opened up between Trump and the Republican Senate at a moment when he needs its support most. Trump’s surprise decision to pull back American troops in Syria and allow Turkey to take on our Kurdish allies has enraged Trump’s closest GOP allies, including Lindsey Graham. “The Syria decision is a much bigger deal,” another former West Wing official said. “No one on the inside can hold Trump accountable. The Senate Republicans are the only check on power right now.”
