CHICAGO — U.S. Sen. Mitt Romney on Tuesday accused fellow Republicans of fomenting political division by perpetuating the myth that massive voter fraud denied Donald Trump reelection, and said unity will be difficult to achieve without acknowledging Democratic President Joe Biden won a fair contest.

Romney, in a livestreamed interview with Minnesota Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar on behalf of the Economic Club of Chicago, also said he shared hopes that the Jan. 6 uprising at the Capitol might lead to more bipartisanship but said there’s been no sign of any change in rhetoric.

Stop it already. Just become a rat and get it over with.

The Bishop is quite the POS.

[Skywise]

Mittens confusing “conformity” and “submission” with “unity”... AGAIN.

Willard is so lost. Utah, please do something about his and shut his mouth so he is never heard from again.

[Avalon Memories]

He wants to run for Prez again, so he won’t change parties since the next cycle will be against a incumbent Prez or Veep. Yes, Romney is that cynical and phony.

No one but cowards want unity

Romney is an American disgrace masquerading as a Mormon

I think that this just about seals the voters of Utah’s claim to the “most clueless electorate in the nation”.

I missed the case where there was full discovery and expert testimony.

[a fool in paradise]

Mitt Romney keeps pushing the myth that he’s a Republican.

C’mon man, you voted for Obama and Joe.

I prefer that he will be primaried by a credible conservative and the pompous condescending @$$ is sent to wherever Utah losers go...

The only answer is to pick up a few Senate seats in 2022, then elect a true majority leader who will not allow Romney to caucus with the GOP.

Mitt has to try to protect his kid who was involved in some of Ukrainian stuff.

I will work with the Nevers in the Republican Party ONLY if they affirm the following:

1. Are you willing to work with Trump supporters who commit to working with you supporting the eventual nominees?

2. Will you accept that you are not going to pry Trump supporters away from their dedication?

3. Are you willing to support Americans asking legitimate questions of election integrity concerns?

4. Are you willing to support the correction or elimination of structural election weaknesses?

5. Are you willing to support measures to improve election data integrity?

I have simple needs here. That is all I ask.

What is that picture, it looks like a execution?

I never tire of watching the tape of their trial with her shrieking to those assembled “...we do NOT recognize this court...” moments before they were both exterminated in the courtyard.

[RatRipper]

Freedom and honesty are the values preferred, Mittball. I do not want to be “unified” with a bunch of liars, thieves and murderers. . . .

Trump carried Utah by about 15-20 points. I'd bet the clothes on my back that Trump,at this moment,has a favorability rating that's twice what Romney's is.

Romney's popular in San Francisco....Trump's popular in Ohio...Indiana...Florida...Texas...Utah...
