Reckless self-satisfaction. Harari goes on at length about liberal humanism's perversion that we all feel entitled to feel good all the time. It's what led to the drug crisis.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Looks like the impeachment vote is getting a hearty "meh" in Utah.

The poll also found 37% of Utahns less likely to vote for Romney in the next election and 36% more likely to vote for him in light of his Senate vote, while for 22% it had no impact. Romney would come up for reelection in 2024.

Mitt still has a higher approval rating than that weasel Mike Lee. That makes me very happy."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Probably because Mitt votes more in alignment with Trump's position than Lee does?Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostMitt still has a higher approval rating than that weasel Mike Lee.

Oh for shame. Trump's not gonna be happy. But POTUS will get a citation, so all is good.
Bills to censure Romney and recall a U.S. Senator are dead on Utah's Capitol Hill
As if Mitt even needed to worry. He's bigger than all of them.However, the House and Senate will proceed with a citation thanking President Trump for his work for the people of Utah. That is slightly different than a proposed resolution Speaker Wilson floated after Sen. Romney's vote.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
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."

Yep. I have one gullible aunt in particular who is particularly susceptible to that crap. I mean- staunch Trump supporter who loves to repeat anything she reads and has no filter for what's real and what's clearly fake. For Pete's sake she has shared a meme/pic of Ewan McGregor as Obi Wan challenging the reader to 'share if you're not ashamed of Jesus.'Originally posted by LVAllen View PostIt's remarkable what happens when Facebook users are constantly bombarded with videos from Russian-bot pro-Trump groups, generating a tidal wave of disinformation and outright lies.

Interesting column on the reaction in Utah to Romney's vote.
https://www.sltrib.com/news/nation-w...is-judas-many/
Utah is one of the rare places where the few Romney-style Republicans who remain are relatively safe from a challenge from their right, where speaking out against the president can be an act to admire, not an apostasy.
With the most vitriolic condemnation of Romney coming from outside Utah, there has been something of a rallying effect around the senator."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."
