Isn’t there a Romney in the RNC?
The irony, it burns…
Pleasantly…
loopholes in the rules governing the 2020 re-nomination campaign are enabling these so-called Republicans to flirt with the possibility of contested primaries and caucuses,
Mitt Romney as a “so-called Republican.” Yikes.
“Ein Reich,
Ein Volk…”
It’s nice to know that our party isn’t the only one who get the vapors over primary concerns.
“Incoming Sen. Mitt Romney’s (R-UT) critical op-ed about President Donald Trump has renewed fears within the RNC of a moderate Republican mounting a primary challenge to Trump in 2020 and consideration of altering the rules to protect him.”
Good.
Someone in the media needs to ask Trump straight out if he needs protection from a primary challenger. And couch it in schoolyard terms he will understand.
Yeah, but Romney isn’t going to be the one primarying Trump. Assuming Trump is even the candidate in 2020, which to me, is a a pretty huge assumption.
Any moves by the RNC to lock down the primary for the sitting President are much more likely to help Pence. And I doubt there will be much stomach to protect a Pence who is quite likely going to be facing his own investigations. Once Trump is gone, the GOP is going to move rapidly to pretend they were never behind him, and as part of that process, Pence (and everyone else in his administration) will have to be shunned.
I still think the most likely scenario is Trump resigns/is removed and Pence becomes the lamest of lame ducks, ends up being primaried and loses…going down in the history books as the first sitting President to lose a primary to his own party.
Gotta love the incestive nature of the GOP.
I could live (exuberantly) with that…
Short version: Hey Unc, I got pwned. This is a warning you’re about to be pwned, too.
“Accordingly, I am asking for your support to take the unprecedented step of amending the rules to close loopholes in the re-nomination campaign…”
I suppose if the RNC is unsuccessful in amending the rules they could always fall back on help from the Russians to clear Trump's path to renomination.
Mmmm…the smell of complicity in treason in the morning. Wouldn’t expect any more from you RNC! Keep up that fine, fine anti-Americanism straight through 2020!
This is the part where the RNC hires John Podesta and Debbie Wasserman Schultz to crush the Willard Bros…
So a faction believes Trump is more important than the rest of the party. Sounds like the GOP has issues.
“Romney’s Op-Ed Prompts Call From Within RNC To Protect Trump In 2020 Primary”
Don’t worry…RNC staff are already on it!
They get farther and farther away from their hero Ronald Reagan every year.
He primaried Ford in 1976.
I have a difficult time unraveling which tweets are real and which are parodies, so I must suspend judgement as to whether Ronna McDaniel is as soulless as her useless hump of an Uncle.
Ronna McDaniel:
POTUS is attacked and obstructed by the MSM media and Democrats 24/7. For an incoming Republican freshman senator (Uncle Mitch) to attack @realdonaldtrump as their first act feeds into what the Democrats and media want and is disappointing and unproductive.
Trump running in 2020, don’t count on it and if he did I can’t believe most Rethugs would think he has a chance at winning. He, at this point, is not convicted of any crime but it’s just a matter of time. He is a criminal and he has to go.
