Romney: My Op-Ed Was About My Relationship With Trump "And How We'll Work Together"

In an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Senator-elect Mitt Romney (R-UT) expounds on his controversial op-ed that attacked President Trump.

"What I did in my op-ed was not just talk about the president and my relationship with him and how we’ll work together, but also I laid out my perspectives and priorities on a very broad basis on everything from trade to China to our allies around the world, immigration and so forth," Romney said.

Romney told Tapper while he is "not looking for the next election," he has not decided who will endorse in 2020.

"I haven’t decided who I’m going to endorse in 2020. I’m going to wait and see what the alternatives are," Romney said.

Willard, and all male mormons, are psychotically obsessed with “mantles”.

“Romney: My Op-Ed Was About My Relationship With Trump “And How We’ll Work Together”

Seems to me if this was his intent he can’t even write a winning op-ed. Total loser.

He was for Trump (2012) before he was against Trump (2016) before he was for Trump (Grovel Dinner) before he was against Trump (OpEd) before he was for Trump (Walk back)

That’s a record isn’t it?

My first thought on reading: "my perspectives and priorities on a very broad basis on everything from trade to China to our allies around the world, immigration and so forth.” ... Who does this jerk think he is? Co-President What a fool! I hope his comeuppance hits fast and hard!

Who can forget this creep practically crawling on his belly begging POTUS for the SOS job. He is such a creepy, slimy, phony piece of work, not to mention a slug with disgustingly greasy hair.

Romney's got a history of doing this crap.

During the 2106 presidential campaign, he attacked Donald Trump in a scathing and controversial speech that was "unprecedented in its viciousness", according to Laura Ingraham.

Then Trump seemingly turned the other cheek and endorsed Romney for Senator.

To thank Trump for his backing and support, Romney again attacked him personally and aggressively in his petty speech yesterday.

RINO Romney appears to want to take over the mantle of McCain as the official backstabber of the GOP.

He's off to pretty good start.

See the post just below that. I went stupid for a minute there. It was late and my brain was like blocking it or something.

It was pretty late and my brain definitely wasn’t firing on all cylinders, it started going to bed before my body did. I honestly didn’t vote for him, I voted for some independent because I couldn’t vote DemonRat either. Romney basically went up unopposed, he won by 30 points because his opponents were cardboard cutouts.

Reid is from Nevada, though. And yes, that guy is a first-class skunk. I find it hilarious that he got drunk off his ass on New Year’s Eve a few years ago, led with his face when he fell, and claimed that he had a fitness accident at 3 AM. Yeah, you gotta watch those 12-oz. curls, that gets rough after midnight, especially for a guy his age.

Yeah, I can’t believe the ego on this guy. He comes out blasting when he’s not even in the job yet. Then he walks it back saying, “I’m going to work with the president,” essentially putting himself ahead of his congressional leadership by saying that. Mitt RINO is totally screwing up and he’s not even made it to Day 1 of the job. This guy is a total fruit-basket. He’s probably been told in the last 36 hours by his leadership, “You’re on probation, freshman-boy, you don’t talk to the media without clearing it with us. Do it again if you really want a fire lit under you.”

I’ll bet you’re right, he probably runs a company as much as Jeb Bush does. That is, he’s just the guy in the front office that gets the first and biggest cut, he has managers that steer the boat.

Good for you. That's integrity.

Nah, it was a way to vacuum my conscience knowing he’d win anyway. He took over 60% of the total vote between 5 candidates, his competitors were lawn chairs. He basically ran unopposed.

That's alright. You still kept your hands clean, unlike so many of your fellow Utahans.
