For years, Pierre Delecto’s presence on Twitter largely went unnoticed. Operating a bare-bones account with the handle, “@qaws9876,” the user’s limited activity only revealed an interest in politics — namely supporting Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah). So when “Pierre Delecto” started trending Sunday on the social media platform, people were understandably confused. “Why are we talking about Pierre Delecto,” one person asked. “WTH is a Pierre Delecto & why is everyone going crazy about it?” another wanted to know. On Sunday, Twitter users lost their collective minds when they learned that “Pierre Delecto” wasn’t a bot or a random Romney superfan,

I find our betters' nom de plume choices to be absolutely hysterical. "Pierre Delicto," "Carlos Danger;" international men of mystery, at least in their own minds. I'm guessin' that Bill Clinton's is something like "Peter the Meat God."

Mr Danger had child porn and Hilly’s E-mails on his laptop - might want to check and see what Romney has on his.

As with Anthony Weiner's choice of Carlos Danger, I have to wonder about the true character of one who picks such a pervy sounding twitter name for themselves. Would not surprise me if we find out that Romney has many loathsome skeletons in his closet, unrelated to politics. Lack of character and core principles will do that to a man. Or woman.

What a tool. We as a country, and certainly as a party, dodged a bullet when this creep lost to Obungler.

"C'est moi" - - oh, how globalist!
Time for a showdown between Pierre Delecto and Carlos Danger. I'm betting big on Carlos.

Pierre Delecto?!? Sounds like a fop or dandy. A perfumed prince? That's Mitt Romney allrite. The guy thinks of himself as royalty, and the rest of us better know our place. It might have been a blessing in disguise that Barack Obama won four more years.

Ashley Feinberg, of Slate, had a hunch and followed it. She dissected his tweets and matched him up - at least tentatively - with Pierre Delecto. The matches are too close to be anyone else. She wrote about the whole thing in detail here:
https://www.lucianne.com/2019/10/20/this_sure_looks_like_mitt_romneysbr_secret_twitter_account_18304.html
As it turns out Romney will go to extremes to get at President (and how that “President” galls him) Donald J. Trump. Even doing a high school job of running a fake twitter account. How juvenile and petty and very meanspirited he is. And he has aspirations still, after losing his own effort to be president, of somehow overcoming a man who won and is doing a splendid job… Surreal.
The twitter account is a symptom of something far more in this man’s makeup.

McCain at least had the reason of an unknown opponent. Willard didn't even have that excuse. A proven incompetent and glass jawed adversary and he lost. Unforgivable.

Of course, he went French. That should tell anyone everything that they need to know about him. A guess is that he and John F’n Kerry share travel itineraries

Re #16, it seems Ashley Feinberg had more than a hunch. Apparently Mittsky bragged in an interview for Atlantic about having had a twitter account since 2011 (we know what was going on then - he’d have been supporting himself for President)… now he uses it to go after PDJT with petty jibes and to build up and/or defend himself:
But perhaps even more telling were Delecto’s sparse tweets, several of which defended Romney.
“Only Republican to hit Trump on [Mueller] report, only one to hit Trump on character time and again, so Soledad, you think he’s the one without moral compass?” Delecto wrote earlier this year in response to a critical tweet from journalist Soledad O’Brien, who had called out the senator for his “utter lack of a moral compass.”

Mr. Delecto and Mrs. Bubba have bitter and skewed views of their losses. Once considered frontrunners, they both appear so pathetically inconsequential now.

Yes, as I commented on another thread on this subject, he probably misspelled the Latin "delicto", meaning crime or offense. And Pierre is French for Peter.
So, Peter Offense or Peter Crime......what is with these bozos?

Well Mittens Romney has essentially by his words and actions, outed himself as a RINO wimpy holier than thou globalist loser, who did not even have the intestinal fortitude to open a Twitter account in his own identity but by using a French language “nom de plume”. This is the great politician who could not even make it past Candy Crowley in a presidential debate. Obviously Romney loves playing the part of a pompous Frenchman, as besides using a French sounding alias “Pierre Delecto” he answered the question about his suspected Twitter account using a French expression. It is easy to see old “Pierre” sitting in some fancy French restaurant chowing down on a bucket of snails. Can you see “Pierre” as the globalist wimpy President of the World negotiating with potentially very dangerous foreign leaders, but during those negotiations who would represent the USA?

I believe his Twitter name is a play on a Latin phrase I have not seen since law school, “in pari delicto,” referring to one who is equally at fault, I take it to be a Mormon-like acknowledgement of his own imperfection. If so, it is unusual humility for a politician.

How dumb was it to tell the reporter about his "secret" account. Secret means secret! Didn't Comey have a secret Twitter account, too? I wonder who else?

Re #25, is it likely Mittsky is playing with law school Latin when “charming Peter” seems more like him?

The "Perfumed Prince" strikes again. What amazes me is that PDJT tries to deflect criticism of Mitt, but he just continues on his merry way, waving away Trump's support like it was a fly buzzing around his head. Although Mitt may not be thrown out of the Republican Party, after the back-stabbing the Party took from McCain, Mitt will never be given a position of power.

Mitt certainly isn't doing the Mormons any good. A dear departed friend had a brother who was a manufacturing rep and his views on dealing with Mormon companies is unprintable.

I can understand why Mitt Romney was elected to the Senate by the people of Utah. Most there read the "Book of Moron"!

He used the account to boost Tweets critical of Trump and sometimes defend his own name. Seems rather immature of a 72-year-old.
