Utah’s two Republicans in the U.S. Senate have decidedly different reactions to the widening ethics scandal swirling around Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for failing to disclose lavish gifts, expensive vacations and financial dealings with a Texas billionaire.
Thomas has traveled on GOP donor Harlan Crow’s private plane and megayacht for years without reporting those gifts as law requires. Additionally, in 2014 Crow purchased Thomas’ childhood home in Georgia, where he allows Thomas’ mother to live rent-free.

We know which side you are on, Mitt.
Your own.
There is no place for you in government.
You should not be there.

I have a theory that the leftists making a stink about Clarence Thomas are trying to force him off the Supreme Court so they can appoint Camel Toe to get her out of the way before they drop the bomb on Diaper Boy. They had their chance, and appointed Katanji Brown Jackson who doesn't know what a woman is instead. Too bad, so sad.

There is absolutely NOTHING good about Romney. A thoroughly rotten person, top to bottom, front to back.
Zero ethics, just bad.

So, Romney and the Salt Lake Tribune agree.
We can't believe anything they say or believe.

Mitt would have no problems with Justice Thomas if he were a leftist who hung out with Dewey Crowe if Harlan County.

I'm troubled by Sen Pierre Delecto's ethics, too. And looking forward to contributing to his GOP primary challenger.

Romney only speaks when he can find a negative about a conservative. You’re not fooling anyone, Mitty. Clarence Thomas is a far more honorable person than you.

I stopped reading the article after what? the first sentence where the writer talks about the "widening scandal" around Thomas. What widening scandal? You mean the horse shoot you so-called reporters put out as news? What about the thundering scandal surrounding the installed pervert Joe Biden and his crackhead son? And Romney really should be come a demorat. He is every bit as vile and odious as demorats are. And every time I remember I voted for this POS I feel like a total idiot. As another poster said, I can't wait to contribute to Romney's primary opponent.

Romney is a big time RINO so what would you expect he would say? By now you would think that the Utah Republicans would be getting Romney’s number!

According to the Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll, Utah Republicans are less likely to approve of the job Mr. Romney is doing than Democrats!!!
Almost a week ago, Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson announced he was forming an exploratory committee 14 months before the scheduled primary.
Other names being considered in Utah GOP circles include former Congressman and current Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz, former national security adviser Robert O’Brien and Utah Republican Attorney General Sean Reyes.
Primarying him didn't work last time because, after losing, the church foisted an additional way for him to make the ballot; by gathering signatures.
These "republican" globalists need to be watched like hawks.

Actually, I am more troubled by your own ethical issues Mitt. Bain Capital and the forced bankruptcies of many of the well known businesses you and your cronies acquired then loaded them with so much debt they eventually collapsed. How is that ethical Mitt? Or how about you and your senior staffers having financial interests in Ukraine? Again, how is that ethical? Try looking in the mirror before you accuse a better man than you of anything, okay?

Willard Romney is trying to get a promotion from the Terrestrial to the Celestial kingdom in the afterlife. Man cannot live by holy underwear alone but every word that proceedeth out of his mouth trashing a gentile will help. Uh, sorry if you don't know much about LDSism.

The ONLY reason Mittens should be in the news is to explain WHY his son is on an energy company board in Ukraine, If this country had a functioning news media they would be checking that story out and pressing Mittens and his son, and Kerry and Pelosi for answers about that.
