Let's remind ourselves. Mitt Romney loves Trump's economic policies and will continue happily to vote for them. When he said "yes" yesterday for impeachment, he says he called on his religious beliefs which held sway as he made his decision.
So let's remember Mitt as we are tempted to scratch our heads or point our fingers at those voters who cling to "god and guns." We can understand that there are more powerful motivations than fair reward for work -- even as we despair at the consequences.
For what it's worth, here's a memo to Bernie: Please expand your message. As you introduce a new generation of voters to what was lost of FDR and Johnson, remember their emotional appeal. We are living in a time of "moral injury." You can speak to that.
Bernie has his points, but I wonder if "changing" is one of them. Romney had his best moment. Unfortunately, too many in the Senate and elsewhere are short term thinkers. Meanwhile, the planet doesn't wait for the enlightenment of we poor humans in the act of fouling our own nest. Birds know better, as any kid knows who has ever been hit by "something from above."
