Tagg Romney Simply Does Not Care For 'Mad Men' Trash-Talking His Dead Grandpa

 
 Fifty-First President of the United States Tagg Romney is hopping mad at the liberal media! This is what he perceives the hit AMC period pieceMad Manto be. On last night's episode -- THIS IS NOT A PLOT SPOILER, JUST A CUTESY ASIDE -- Betty's Republican operative husband, working for then-New York Mayor John Lindsay, was overheard telling the telephone that Lindsay wouldn't be going to Michigan because "Romney’s a clown and I don't want [Lindsay] standing next to him." Get it? All of the Romneys, throughout time, have been Political Clowns.

Check out Taggage, just goin' nuts:

Seriously, lib media mocking my dead grandpa? @ aburnspolitico : “Well, tell [him] not going to Michigan. Because Romney’s a clown”

George Romney was as good a man I've ever known. Inspirational leader, worked for civil rights, promoted freedom. We need more like him

It's true, George Romney was a pretty good fellow. So was John Lindsay! But both are generally understood to have been political clowns. So maybe the joke's on Betty's husband for not realizing that liberal Republicanism was a sinking ship taking down his own boss too... whatever, it's a teevee show about people in fancy clothes.

And in another fifty years, we'll all laugh when Sino-American Outer Space State Virtual-Reality Television makes fun of Tagg Romney as a "clown" and his grandchild, Chotch Romney, whines about it on autotune from his home in the Rebel CyberCaves (Delaware).
