It wasn’t.

But you don’t think those things played a role in how Mitt Romney analyzed the facts presented?

His decision to vote for removal is completely unsurprising to anyone that’s been paying attention.
Trump said plenty of mean things about Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, and they don’t seem to have a problem defending him.

There seems to be a trend where former GOP members speak out against Trump. Mitt Romney being against Trump seems to be in line with others that no longer depend on the GOP.

Trump has attacked others far more aggressively and those Republicans are some of his biggest bootlickers. Ted Cruz is no more than a servile lapdog after Trump called his wife ugly and falsely accused his father of partaking in the JFK assassination. A pathetic excuse of a man, truly the lowest of the low. Won't even stand up for his own wife and father.

You could argue Romney's independence from Trump gave him room for a more objective analysis. He didn't need to lick Trump's boots 24/7 to win his Senate seat.

If Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio were worth hundreds of millions of dollars I wouldn’t have been surprised if they’d done the same.

Even Manchin's ho ***

Surprised Manchin came through, he was the Dem I most of all expected to vote for acquittal.
 
Here's a nice semantics argument:

The House impeachment vote was bipartisan, after all a deeply conservative member voted for both articles. Justin Amash was in the most conservative caucus in the House (Freedom Caucus), however his position there and as a Republican became untenable because he dared to criticize Supreme Leader Kim Jong Trump.
 
Mitt Romney didn't stand tall. He's not built for this game. He's spent his life in Michigan (no coal), Massachusetts (no coal) and now Utah (weak low carbon brown coal). He's never mined for hard black West Virginia coal, he's never got micro crystals of quartz in his lungs in Kentucky, he's never seen his grade school classmates, skeeter and Rodger, crushed while dynamiting through a seam in Pennsylvania. He has likely never even rolled coal once or fellated an exhaust pipe.

Dude is soft and it shows.
