Appearing Sunday on Axios on HBO, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said he felt “embarrassed” to be labeled a “lurker” after confirming he has a secret Twitter account.
A transcript of the exchange is as follows:
MIKE ALLEN: There’s some question whether you follow President Trump. Your official account follows President Trump.
SEN. MITT ROMNEY: I have two official accounts — one is a Senate account and the other is the Mitt Romney account and those accounts are not ones I look at regularly. I do follow them, but I have an anonymous account, which is the one that I look at two or three times a day.
ALLEN: Oh, so you’re a lurker?
SEN. ROMNEY: Is that what they’re called? I’m embarrassed to be called a lurker. I’ve been called a lot of things, but being called a lurker is a new low.
The exchange between Romney and Allen comes after The Atlantic published an exposé on Sunday about the Utah senator in which he revealed he maintains a private Twitter account for the purpose of keeping up on the news.
“I won’t give you the name of it,” the lawmaker told the magazine, before adding that he follows 668 people.

Someone pointed out that Delicious Penis, or whatever the English translation of his "secret" Twitter name is, spent a lot of his time posting tweets that defended Mitt Romney against attacks from other Twitter members.
How pathetic. LOL.

Delightful Peter? Are you kidding? He’s suppose to be smart? His undies are on way too tight, the circulation isn’t getting to the brain cell. Quick call the butterfly net squad. We need medical attention on isle Utah. This is special. The farce runs deep in the swamp. Sheesh.

Jeeezzz... It’s just a matter of when, not if, they meet in some chat room...
Mitt: ”They call me Delecto. Pierre Delecto.”

I’m pretty sure I’ve called him a lot worse than lurker.
