Senate Republicans can and will do what they'd like. But let me be as clear as I can about this.

No Republican outside of D.C. is looking to @MittRomney for "leadership" on this. They're looking for their party to defend their President.

If they do not, they will be decimated.
@MittRomney There is no going to back to a time when @MittRomney was the best the Republican Party could put up for President and base voters gave a damn what Jonah Goldberg or Bill Kristol thought.

You're deluding yourselves if you believe that.

The party will be destroyed.
@MittRomney I'd STRONGLY suggest you get out of your own head and that cesspool of a town, and talk to real Americans and real Republicans.

They're absolutely furious right now.

And to the extent they care what Mitt Romney thinks?

Trick question. They don't.
@MittRomney The truth, the hard truth, is that Republican voters see @MittRomney as a technocrat weakling and a failure of the highest order.

Not B/C he's a professional failure. But because he failed them. That's what "public service" is about.

Remember?

That's how we got Donald Trump.
@MittRomney And plutocrat is actually a better word than technocrat. He is a Creature of the Swamp who has had Gold Digging consultants pretending to be his friends whispering in his ear that the country needs "a man like you" for the last two decades.

People don't see hubris as duty.
@MittRomney If you don't think a MASSIVE number of voters will step back and allow the Democratic Party to DESTROY the Republican Party at the ballot box in 2020 if they follow @MittRomney off the impeachment cliff...

Then you're mentally stunted.

You've not been paying attention.
@MittRomney I'm a numbers guy and I like historical events, esp. data-wise, so by all means, go right ahead.

We'll put up a big map w/ hover graphics of laughing faces on Red States and Districts where Republicans got romped on Election Day.

B/C that would qualify as historically stupid.
@MittRomney You folks want to hear a funny but likely anger-provoking story about the failure of Project Orca, which was supposed to carry @MittRomney?

I don't have a 2nd-hand whistleblower account, either. I was listening on calls.

It's funny stuff. Maybe it's time for an article on it.
