How will Mitt vote on the pending bill that would disapprove Trump's emergency declaration regarding the wall? I really hope he votes yes, in part because it will undercut his opponents who believe that while he talks a good game, he's ultimately in Trump's thrall and will fall in line.
BTW, I think there are very strong constitutional grounds for rejecting the declaration, but I'm
at Democrats and their current high-minded constitutional arguments in support of the bill, arguments that were nowhere to be found when Obama was taking rather aggressive executive action. Still, as with their current views on Russia, better late than never--it's just a pity it took their antipathy toward Trump to open their eyes.

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

It's my head canon that Mitt has been working behind the scenes, carefully orchestrating this giant finger to Trump as personal payback for Trump's assholery to Mitt in the past.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post

Yeah, I was wondering if Mitt would be a yes-man like most of the other Republicans. Good to see that he isn't.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post

How appropriate to see Mitt as the poster child for Senate Republicans with "spines."
Mitt Happens!!!
Trump is losing control: 12 GOP senators defect
Whose name is listed first as Senate Republicans "walloping" the POTUS? MITT!!!
President Trump got walloped for the second time in 24 hours by the Senate. In a stunning repudiation of the president, 12 Republican senators crossed party lines to vote with Democrats to end Trump’s fraudulent declaration of a national emergency along the U.S.-Mexico border. The final vote was 59 to 41, with GOP Sens. Mitt Romney (Utah), Susan Collins (Maine), Patrick J. Toomey (Pa.), Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Roy Blunt (Mo.), Roger Wicker (Miss.), Mike Lee (Utah), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Jerry Moran (Kan.), Rob Portman (Ohio), Marco Rubio (Fla.) and Rand Paul (Ky.) voting to end the president’s declaration — which seeks to confiscate Congress’s power of the purse.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

This is how Mitt tells the POTUS to ESAD, FU, and SAD!
". . . heroic, courageous, patriotic, honorable, self-effacing, self-sacrificing, empathetic, and driven by duty to family, country, and God. Everything that you you aren't, President Dump."

I appreciate him not being Lindsay Graham. Trump is so incredibly petty and childish. He’s such a dangerous choice to have as president.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post

If you want someone sensible - I just don't see that happening. Seems to me like Anderson is getting pushed out primarily because he was unwilling to remove party membership from people like Mitt, who collected signatures in order to get on the Primary Ballot.
If Phil Wright, who that article says is running, wins - I can promise you that the Utah Republican Party is not moving towards becoming more sensible.
