In this episode, Alex laments the fact that one of Utah’s Senators, Mitt Romney, will not be seeking re-election. Alex takes his listeners through Romney’s fall from the Republican standard bearer to an anti-Trump pariah and why values over survival are important. It seems like Senator Romney actually valued his role as a United States Senator but was disillusioned with the moral failings of many of his colleagues. Alex argues that there should be more Romneys in a healthy Senate and his actions were morally, and politically, necessary.
