#1 Just a note - Mittens will be 71 in two months, and he almost killed a dog. Poor Seamus!

#2 I suspect Senator Romney will be able to work with President Trump to achieve mutually agreed-upon goals, whatever his personal opinion of the man. They both like and are liked by Bibi Netanyahu, after all.

#4 Senator McCain, at his core, is a self-centered, vicious ass. Governor Romney, it seems to me, at core figures out how to accomplish goals, particularly reorganizing businesses. He would happily use President Trump to accompliish goals like right-sizing and properly focussing the federal bureaucracy, who would as happily use him for the exact same purpose. And he respects the separation of powers, which is why he developed Romneycare after the Massachussetts legislature passed it into law, despite not being keen on the idea.

I wasn’t aware he’d moved to Utah, though. When did that happen?

#8 As I said earlier, if Mitt wanted to be in elected office he should have tried running back in 2012.
