Mitt Romney dresses up as Ted Lasso, has 'biscuits with the boss' with Kyrsten Sinema

[Polybius]

(CNN)Sen. Mitt Romney laced up his boots and put on his best Ted Lasso for Halloween, fake mustache and all.

"Warming up for Halloween weekend with the grandkids," the Utah Republican tweeted Thursday, sharing one of the fictional coach's many aphorisms. "As @TedLasso says, 'Your body is like day-old rice. If it ain't warmed up properly, something real bad could happen.'"

Completing the look was Romney-as-Ted paying a visit to Sen. Kyrsten Sinema for "biscuits with the boss" -- a highly recognizable moment from the Apple TV+ hit, and a not-so-subtle troll of Democrats, who have been forced to make significant concessions to secure the Arizona centrist's support for President Joe Biden's economic agenda.

9. I saw this yesterday and had no idea it was supposed to be Ted Lasso

I thought it was a retro 50’s thing.

4. As someone else said. That's actually Pierre Delecto, dressed as Mitt Romney,

dressed as...... Wait, what was I saying?

[QED]

5. Sinema never passes up an opportunity to embarrass herself.

The curtsy, the denim vest, the hair flip. Don't touch me!

[bluecollar2]

6. Romney is the polar opposite of Ted Lasso...n/t

7. this is almost as sick as

Bush's hunt for those pesky WMD's video at the Washington Correspondents Dinner ...those rancid Republicans really know how to entertain...and then there's Sinema, a Marjorie Taylor Greene wannabe wearing shocking pink...perfect

8. It isn't horrible to associate with people who disagree with you.

What is, is sacrificing your principles for cash and selling out your constituencies. It is also isn't surprising that the two might have a lot in common -not least because they were both raised Mormon.

The man has never done an unselfish thing his entire life!
