Well, that didn't take long -- to put Mitt Romney's head "on a pike."
Now, we know reportedly what a confidant of President Donald Trump meant when he warned Senators that Republicans voting to convict Trump, would end up with their "head on a pike."
CBS News reported just more than a week ago that a Trump confidant said that key senators were warned: "Vote against the president and your head will be on a pike."
Sneaky, black ops Trump operators must have had that attack ad all geared up and ready to roll after Romney was one of just two Republicans who voted to call for witnesses last week in Trump's Senate impeachment trial.
The Senate had barely acquitted Trump of impeachment for abuse of power and obstructing Congress, when Trump's TV ad slamming Romney as some kind of spy hit the airwaves.
Trump and his apologists are such a pathetic, petty, truth-twisting, justice-obstructing bunch. Romney deserves credit.
It's not easy to be a lone dissenter among your party on such a monumental decision.
And credit also goes to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- who appropriately tore up Trump's hypocritical, exceedingly disingenuous, pandering State of The Union address moments after the President finished up Wednesday night.
In fact, maybe Mitt and Nancy should both be awarded the "Medal of Freedom" for their courageous actions in defense of the American Republic.
