Last week, Senator Mitt Romney tweeted a video clip and wrote “Spending $40 billion to help Ukraine defeat Russia is one of the smartest, most economic investments we could make. War is bad for everyone, even here in America: it interrupts the supply chain, raises the price of oil and the products Americans buy, and it roils capital markets.”

Romney’s comments stirred debate.

Ryan Girdusky wrote “This is so stupid and the fact that all these Republican Senators are making these videos to try to save face makes me realize they know it’s deeply unpopular with their voters.”

Curt Mills wrote “I remember watching the 2012 election ten years ago, and thinking— no matter what— how much I actually liked about both candidates. Analyzing Obama and Romney now, all I can loop on is how little I like about each”

“My choice for @POTUS, 2024!”

“The logic here, or lack thereof is astounding.”
