Mitt Romney ...the voice of reason?

"The “media”, on the left and right, amplify, all of it. The rabid attacks kindle the conspiracy mongers and the haters who take the small and predictable step from intemperate word to dangerous action. The world is watching America with abject horror.

More consequently, our children are watching. Many Americans are frightened for our country, so divided, so angry, so mean, so violent. It is time to lower the heat.

The leaders must tone it down, leaders from the top and leaders of all stripes. Parents, bosses, reporters, columnists, professors, union chiefs, everyone. The consequence of the crescendo of anger leads to a very bad place. No sane person can want that."

Where was he 20 years ago when Fox News used the "let's just scare the shit out of people 24/7" methodology to dominate the ecosystem? Of course now everyone is doing it, it's become a requirement for survival.

@QuixoticSoul it does seem that way ...a sad state of affairs

@QuixoticSoul Maybe the point was idiotic

@eli1601 No, you just didn't get it.
It's a very nice "tweet in the wilderness," but it really ignores the people benefitting from and fuelling the fires for their own purposes.

@MistyCee have to agree. Am struggling to see how "the fringes" are going to row back from the hardened, entrenched positions they've taken?
@PSuss1 Its not so much that fringes as the people using them and profiting off of the chaos that I was talking about.

Yes, let's just forget the Russia hoax, partisan impeachment, and the daily hatefest the media and dems have been pushing for four years.

In this particular situation, I have to admit he is right. However, everything is subterfuge with proglodytes. Romney is a prog.

A bit rich for a right-wing poster boy to be saying this TODAY when his party have acted so appallingly in recent times.

And once again, the current situation has little to do with media and EVERYTHING to do with APPALLING politicians at a time when everybody is fearful for their lives !
@Picklebobble2 You remind me of when the teacher is talking in old peanuts cartoons. 😆

Mitt Romney’s son along with Pelosi’s and Biden’s were involved in the Ukraine kickback scheme . He’s a Rino . Nothing he says is relevant

@TexChik all 3 sons? ...how convenient is that! ...you can appreciate how, to the outside World, it might look a little TOO convenient?

@PSuss1 All 3 are corrupt, so it makes perfect sense

@TexChik too convenient for me ...I suspect the truth lies elsewhere

It's a bit like a long time white male member of the Augusta country club complaining about it's treatment of women and minorities.
