Which is why I'm confused more R senators don't take this path. That was absolutely a long term political move and he loses nothing.
i think trump is less popular with mormons than other groups in the republican base. so romneys not at risk of losing in utah

most republican senators in red or purple states rely on a base of voters who probably like trump more than their own senators

i dont think romney risked as much as others are saying for this but i think its a little more than symbolic. trump cant release bullshyt ads now about how impeachment was just a partisan hack-job by the democrats.

i mean i guess he can still just lie like always. hopefully people see through that though

hopefully :francis:

Some of you guys are stupid. Mitt Romney, the last Republican presidential nominee BEFORE Trump is voting to remove him from office. That's a big fukking deal.

What's wrong with some of y'all? :gucci:
The first Senator in American History to vote to remove a President of his own party :noah:

Romney said in an interview with a Salt Lake City newspaper that he was called a traitor in public at a grocery store just for voting in favor of witnesses.

Republicans stick together no matter what

Romney is quite safe in Utah so he has risked nothing

This is a power play for later....

He can be recalled.

He cannot currently. There's a state rep pitching a law, but there are hurdles.

The bill, HB217, would establish a process for legal voters to petition through signature gathering to place a question on the ballot to recall a U.S. senator.

It would require signatures equal to 25% of the number of active voters in the state on Jan. 1 immediately following the last regular general election. If that threshold is met, the lieutenant governor would place the recall question on the ballot of the next election that occurs at least 90 days after the question is certified.

Under the bill, an incumbent senator would not be subject to recall if the senator has not been in office for at least one year of his or her current term.

Quinn said he sees the bill as a “good compromise between pre- and post-17th Amendment” that contains a fitting standards to meet for a recall.

“I think it’s a fairly large hurdle,” Quinn said. “That’s a lot of signature gathering. So it’s not something that people would take lightly if someone ever did want to recall a sitting senator.”

However, it’s unclear whether Quinn’s bill is even constitutional.

The U.S. Constitution does not provide for recall of any federally elected officials. While some states have statutes to allow voters to recall members of Congress, the U.S. Supreme Court has not yet ruled on whether that’s constitutionally legal at the federal level.
