When someone like Mitt Romney, who's been a lifelong Republican, a former presidential nominee, and a pillar of the party establishment feels compelled to speak out against Donald Trump, it really shows how dire things have become. Romney isn’t some fringe voice or a political opportunist. He’s someone who has every reason to stay quiet and fall in line, but instead, he’s risking isolation within his own party to sound the alarm.
That tells me this isn’t politics as usual. It’s not about policy disagreements, it’s about the very health of democracy and the moral compass of the Republican Party. For Romney to break ranks like this, the danger must be real, and the stakes incredibly high. When the people who helped build the system start warning that it’s breaking down, we should all be paying attention.
