Of all the scolding and scorching messages the GOP sent to Mitt Romney today, Lindsey Graham's seems to be the most timely & thoughtful.
Graham is a decades-long friend of Romney's and speaks from a raw and recent experience with modern congressional Democrats.

A wise message from @LindseyGrahamSC:
“The people who are applauding Romney today for standing up to Trump and going after Trump will turn on Romney the moment he votes for something that they don’t like.

"He’s got to learn from Kavanaugh. It’s really not about Trump, it’s about us. It’s about conservatism. They want to destroy the conservative movement, not just Trump. Kavanaugh was the Bush guy, he wasn’t the Trump guy."
"Trump picked somebody from the Bush world who was highly qualified, that brought the party together. Instead of smooth sailing, rewarding the president to pick somebody highly qualified, the Democrats chose to try to destroy Kavanaugh."
"I want Mitt to know, it’s not just about Trump, it’s about us. Remember what they tried to do to you, Mitt, when they got through with you? You were a bad guy. The truth is, you’re a good guy, but in their world you will always be a bad guy if you try to cross them on policy”
