That wasn't so much bringing on a critic as it was rewarding a supporter's loyalty, I think. - znufrii Nov 24, 12:59
Huh? All the criticism of Romney is about his loyalty to Trump. If that isn't "syncophant wanted" I don't know what you'd call it. -- nm - crash davis Nov 24, 11:46 7
- This isn't about Romney showing total capitulation when he's neutral. No, he got very specific and very personal. I think it is reasonable to ask... - Name Withheld by Request Nov 24, 11:54 6
  - Wouldn't it really be about how he works with Pence? - . Nov 24, 13:11
  - I absolutely agree with you on the "how is that supposed to work" front, but I hope he picks him for two reasons -- (edited) - Reagen Nov 24, 12:08 1
    - I'm pessimistic. I think we left "how it is supposed to work" territory a long time ago -- nm - crash davis Nov 24, 12:15
  - Okay, I get what you are saying about working relationships. However, I think you may have an optimistic premise while I have a pessimistic one. -- (edited) - crash davis Nov 24, 12:03 2
    - This was always the point I was going for with the original response in the thread. There's a different telling possible than just "No enemies." -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Nov 24, 12:12 1
      - Well, since he shut down his DC policy workshop and refused to pay the staffers, I'm in the "pick the best available" because there is no blueprint -- nm - crash davis Nov 24, 12:17
