Summary
Mitt Romney acknowledged that Trump’s MAGA agenda now fully dominates the Republican Party, stating in a CNN interview that traditional conservatism has been overtaken.
Romney, a frequent Trump critic, admitted he was wrong about Trump losing in 2024 and predicted MAGA’s influence would extend into 2028 with figures like JD Vance.
Romney argued the GOP’s appeal to working-class voters has shifted the political landscape, while criticizing Democrats for focusing on cultural issues over economic concerns.
He claims this focus cost Democrats key demographics in the recent election.
If they do that they’ll get primaried and lose their seats. Until he dies Trump owns the GOP and to go against him is suicide. When he does die the party will probably collapse because it will lose all meaning.
In general yes; but Romney is probably one of only a handful of GOP politicians who could work with the Dems and not get primaried out.
