The stuff Republicans are saying about Mitt Romney right now actually makes us feel sorry for the guy

Traitor. Rat. Loser. Disgusting human. Vindictive. Petulant child. Bitter. Piece of shit.

Those are just a few of the adjectives Republicans are using to describe their former party leader, Sen. Mitt Romney, after he voted to convict Donald Trump earlier today.

“The president asked a foreign government to investigate his political rival,” Romney said in an emotional speech on the Senator floor before casting his vote. “What the president did was wrong. Grievously wrong.”

Romney was the only Republican to side with Democrats when he voted yes on Article 1 of impeachment, which found Trump guilty of Abuse of Power. (He voted no on Article 2, which found Trump guilty of Obstruction of Congress.)

The backlash from members of his tribe who, just eight years ago, wanted him to be their president, was swift and damning…

We never thought we’d say this, but… We actually feel kinda sorry for the guy!

While he may be hated within his own party, we have a feeling history will feel much differently. And that’s what really matters.
