Mitt Romney Faces The Fact That 'MAGA Is The Republican Party'
HuffPost
"I lost. He won," the outgoing senator from Utah said of soon-to-be president Donald Trump.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) is coming to grips with the fact that President-elect Donald Trump and his Make America Great Again movement are now at the heart of the Republican Party.
The outgoing senator couldn’t deny that Trump’s far-right faction is now in control, discussing America’s shifting political landscape during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday.
Asked if there was a future for a “post-Trump” GOP, Romney freely told host Jake Tapper, “Oh, MAGA is the Republican Party, and Donald Trump is the Republican Party today.”
“And if you were to ask me who the nominee will be in 2028, it’ll be JD Vance, alright,” continued Romney, a staunch moderate and once outspoken critic of both Trump and his soon-to-be vice president, Vance.
“Look, the Republican Party has become the party of the working-class, middle-class voter,” he added. “You’ve got to give Donald Trump credit for having done that, taking that away from the Democrats.”
