"The 'extreme conservative' and Junior Senator from the great state of Utah, @SenatorRomney is formally NOT invited to #CPAC2020, tweeted Matt Schlapp, the head of the American Conservative Union, which puts on the annual GOP confab.

And we can make him lose, if he has to run AGAINST overturning a Public-Option Medicare signup.
Because healthcare IS the economy, stupid...and 75 percent us know it, even IF they voted for trump.

He is a right wing nutter.
The difference is Romney's clan does believe in the rule of law. They will gladly stack the laws in their favor.
The current bunch has no respect for anything or anyone. Especially the law.
