Try refreshing your browser, or Today s letters: A cautious view of U.S. politics under Biden Back to video
As a political science colleague of Andrew Cohen, I offer a couple of points that may or may not puncture our optimism, relating to the historic and current state of U.S. political institutions.
First, we will not know who controls the U.S. Senate until January – and even if it is a tie, I don’t see the current Republican Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell, being open to “sharing.”
With respect to the putative moderates, Sen. Mitt Romney was never known as a moderate when he governed my native state of Massachusetts. He also represents Utah, one of the most reliably Republican states and is a former chair of the Republican Governors’ Association with little to fear from McConnell or Trump.
Views:
The press loves to paint Sen. Mitt Romney as one of the few Republicans willing to stand up to Trump, but as this interview with CNN s Jake Tapper this Sunday made apparent, he s all talk and no action when it comes to actually reigning Trump in and being willing to put a stop to his dangerous anti-Democratic behavior.
Here s Romney ignoring the question on what he and his fellow Senate Republicans should do about Trump s attempted military coup, and pretending that Trump deserves an ounce of credit for his response to this deadly pandemic, or the rollout of the vaccines.
“It’s really sad in a lot of respects and embarrassing”
Jake Tapper led an interview with Romney on Sunday by asking the senator to respond to these events.
“What will Senate Republicans do to make sure none of this madness happens?”
“It’s not going to happen. It’s going nowhere,” Romney answered. “It’s really sad in a lot of respects and embarrassing because the president could, right now, be writing the last chapter of this administration with a victory lap with regards to the vaccine.”
Romney went on to say Trump “could be going out championing this story. But instead, he’s leaving Washington with conspiracy theories and things that are so nutty and loopy that people are shaking their head wondering in the world has gotten into this man? I think that is unfortunate because he has more accomplishments than this last chapter suggests he’s going to be known for.”
Mitt Romney (R-UT) bashed President
Donald Trump for his reported flirting with the possibility of declaring martial law to upend the 2020 election results.
Multiplereports emerged over the weekend detailing Trump’s recent meetings with numerous allies, including former National Security Adviser
Michael Flynn and conspiracy theorist
Sidney Powell. The common theme of these reports was that Trump’s inner circle have encouraged the president to try enacting martial law, have the DHS illegally seize voting machines, and launch other attempts to undo his defeat to President-Elect
Joe Biden.
