Romney voted to convict Trump of the fantasy crime of "Abuse of power," the first time in history that a Senator has voted against a president from his own party without any proven "High crimes or misdemeanors." Romney's rationale was typical NeverTrump bluster about "Principle" seasoned with Pharasaism: "I swore an oath before God to exercise impartial justice," he said.
"This is the same Mitt Romney who solicited and received Trump's endorsement when he ran for president in 2012, a time when Trump's personality and demeanor were well known. Yet when Trump began his presidential run in 2015, Romney called him"childish" and later a "phony, a fraud" who is "playing members of the American public for suckers.
In 2017 Romney joined the duplicitous chorus of Dems and Donk NeverTrumpers who claimed that Trump said that the marginal white supremacists protesting at Charlottesville were "Fine people," a canard exploded numerous times.
Despite Trump's kind remarks at that time, Romney continued to snipe at Trump, once again parroting the bipartisan NeverTrumpers in saying of Trump's comments about Russian interference in the election-which we now know has been overblown by the same intelligence agencies that would go on to undermine Trump's administration-"President Trump's decision to side with Putin over American intelligence agencies is disgraceful and detrimental to our democratic principles."
You can read here more of Romney's attacks on Trump, such as his response to the Mueller report that he was "Sickened at the extent and pervasiveness of dishonesty and misdirection" of Trump and his administration.
The main point is that by endorsing the Orwellian lexicon of politically correct abuse, and taking their stand on "Principles" they are willing to violate or selectively apply, they give aid and comfort to the progressive "True believers" whose long hegemony over our political life and culture that Trump has challenged.
By emboldening the "Dissidents" against the illiberal regime, Trump has struck a blow against an aggressive progressivism that seeks to dismantle our Constitutional safeguards against tyranny, and has begun to dismantle their "Fear society," and return us to what America was created to be: a free society where anyone can "Bawl out his freedom," as Aeschylus put it, in the town square.
