Utah Senator Mitt Romney Thread

[Uncle Ted]

So Trump has declared Utah as the home of "our worst Senator," which he clarified by saying he meant Romney, not Lee. Trump also said Romney couldn't be elected dogcatcher (what a fresh, stinging rebuke!). It can't be because of his voting record, since Romney has voted with McConnell, Graham, etc., more than 90% of the time. And Romney's approval ratings are higher than Trump's, which suggests Trump would fare even worse in the dogatcher race. Let's hope that's the case.

Yeah, anyone that strapped their dog to the roof of the car and drove to Canada I bet would have a hard time being elected to be the dogcatcher... I am sure ASPCA would have something to say about that!

lol Trump. When he dies, the flags will fly at half mast, as will be proper and correct to mark the passing of a President. However, that day will lack the sting of sorrow or regret that usually accompanies the sight. Instead, I'm imagining a pretty big "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" vibe.

Neither proper nor correct. Were fortune kind enough to deliver a dead Trump, I would never fly a flag at half mast for the guy. In full disclosure I don't own a flag, but if such a blessed event occurred, I would certainly go out and buy a flag and a flag pole just so I could fly it at full mast. And then I would dance.

True enough. I assume some people would fly it at half mast, though.

Nope... but I have never seen a secure on-line voting platform yet. They usually all suck given there is not a clear audit trail record of things, not to mention the authentication problem of who is actually doing the voting. It is still a really bad idea.

Hyperledger is the idea of a distribution ledgers using blockchains... similar to the bitcoin idea. That may give the perception of a complete and secure audit trail but building secure systems is hard.

I remember when Nixon died and the flags were flown at half mast. If Nixon gets it, I don't see why Trump wouldn't.

Trump should get half mast because he’s a president. But he’s 20,000x the self serving crook Nixon ever was.

Nixon was a piece of shit, but not on par with Trump's brand of shittiness. Nixon had enough respect for the country to eventually bow out, however disgraceful. Trump would never do that. If Trump were merely corrupt, and not dangerous, I would merely dismiss him.

I suppose that's the correct response, but I prefer honesty to correctness. My correct response would be that his passing is a shame. My honest response would be that I'm glad the bastard's dead.
