Run, Laura, Run!
The popular Fox News host Laura Ingraham has come out swinging. Backlash has continued to grow ever since Romney broke ranks with his fellow GOP colleagues and voted to convict President Trump.
Ingraham had a lot to say when she weighed in. According to Fox News:
“If he were up for reelection this year, the people of Utah would have their own payback against him because they were defrauded by Romney. For when he had to choose, he chose [Charles] Schumer and Kamala [Harris] over common sense and conservatism,” Ingraham said. “If you’re one of Romney’s constituents in Utah, you’re out of luck. If you’re a business in need of a regulation reexamined, don’t bother calling his office. He has no power anymore.”
Ingraham brought up Romney’s previous presidential runs saying, “we thought you’d be better for America and the way you repay millions of people, the millions who did vote for you in 2012 is to throw in with the very people who don’t share our goals, who hate us. And by the way, who still hate you.”
“Like all the other bitter ‘Never Trumpers’, he’d rather see the entire American economy go down the drain than give Trump a victory,” Ingraham said.
Ouch!
Now, that’s a race we’d love to see!
Ingraham has been exposing Romeny for several weeks. She is an equal-opportunity truth-teller, calling out liars both left and right.
Watch as she tears into Nancy Pelosi and Mitt Romney in the same segment!
Just last night, Ingraham had a guest from Utah who was calling on Republican colleagues to censure Mitt Romney.

The would-be failed-presidential candidate’s career ended long before he voted to convict Trump. Just last week, he was dis-invited from the largest gathering of conservatives in the country.
After breaking ranks with Senate Republicans and calling for additional testimony from witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump, Utah Senator Mitt Romney has been “formally NOT invited” to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) expected to take place in February 2020 in Fort Washington, Maryland.
American Conservative Union (ACU) Chairman Matt Schlapp made the announcement on Twitter Friday.

How quickly the stars can fall.
We shouldn’t be surprised that America doesn’t want back-stabbers as leaders or role models.
Better luck next time, Mittens.
