Heilemann: Bannon Sees Romney as the ‘Enemy Du Jour’

EXCERPT:

HEILEMANN: "Romney is among those who yesterday decided, as the rest of the Republican Party has decided in one way or the other to meekly and sheepishly go along in some way with Donald Trump having thrown in his lot with Roy Moore, the Republican National Committee now is behind Roy Moore, you got a lot of these senators who called for disowning Moore who are now kind of saying, 'Well, I guess we don’t have any choice but to go along.' You have Mitt Romney who is still out there plugging away, fighting the good fight against Roy Moore and I guess he's now the most prominent large-scale national Republican leader who is still leading the charge against Roy Moore. So, Bannon sees him as the enemy du jour. I’m struck mostly by what you said, Joe. It’s amazing for a person who is the person who claims credit for putting Donald Trump in the White House to be attacking any one for having not served in Vietnam given Donald Trump’s record on service in Vietnam."
