(4,845 posts)2. I think people misunderstand Mitt. He hates Trump and what Trump stands for
But a republican SC justice wouldn't be out of line for Mitt. So of course he will vote for a republican SC justice. The grudge isn't enough for Mitt to go against Trump on everything. Mitt doesn't suddenly become a democrat because of his hate on Trump.
Not praising Mitt or defending him. Just saying some people's hope on Mitt or any other republican is misplaced.

I'm not even sure he hates what Trump stands for, I think it's a clash of wealthy white egos.

(4,845 posts)4. I think Mitt hates that Trump says the silent parts out
and outright don't pretend to be a decent human being. That exposes the whole republican beliefs to the masses and damages the republican brand.
