Romney would make sense.

Why (outside of Mitt’s high profile, that is)?
Of all the GOP Senators, Romney would seem to be one of the LEAST vulnerable to Trumpian bullshit:

1. His seat is safe for another 5 years, by which time Trump may (Dog willing) be long gone.
2. He’s wealthy enough to not to need fundraising help.
3. He has his own power base in Utah who may or may not give a crap about Donald Trump (he won his Senatorial election 71-29%, hardly “vulnerable”).

So what’s Romney’s downside for “turning” on Trump? A barrage of Internet abuse? Mitch McConnell putting him on the Senate shitlist? Getting pushed to back-of-the-house seats at DC power restaurants?

Of course, this doesn’t mean he WILL do anything contrary to Trump’s interests, just that if any Republican Senator seems insulated from any blowback, it’s Mitt.
