Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney has asked President Trump to apologize for his handling of the deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, VA last weekend.

Other top Republicans share Romney's sentiments. House Speaker Paul Ryan tweeted his disappointment in Trump's "moral ambiguity," while Sens. Marco Rubio (FL) and Tim Scott (SC) said condemning the real culprits should have been a no brainer.

I thought so too, but I guess he’s been coopted by the Cheap Labor Express like every other SC politician.

Did Mittens ask the Democrat who called for Trump’s ASSASSINATION to “apologize”? Be expelled? Be charged by the FBI? ANYTHING? Have ANY GOPe’s done this? If not, they should be SHREDDED by every single Trump loyalist for this fact.

Thanks for the Romney Facebook link.
I visited and left a comment. Below is the post wrote before the discussed post:

“No, not the same. One side is racist, bigoted, Nazi. The other opposes racism and bigotry. Morally different universes.”

Romney is actually defending Antifa. I am seething with anger.

Only another election in 2020 will tell us the truth about were President Trump stands with this country.

Yo, mittens, why don’t you ask the Ubama supporter who organized the “protest” to apologize.

Maybe it just comes down to money. Who is willing to donate to Tim Scott’s re-election campaign? Which committee assignments will he be considered for? Mitch McConnell may still have a lot of influence.

Hey Romney, listening to sh!t for brains losers like you is for losers. President Trump is not a loser like YOU!

That’s how they have turned most of the GOP against the citizens and the rule of law.

South Carolina conservatives have a lot to answer for in their choice of politicians. How can one of the most conservative and GOP dominated states with the strongest ties to the Confederacy, have leaders who are so cucky? It seems SC conservatives have really swallowed the PC koolaid more than most, perhaps in some kind of misguided attempt to curry favor with the current establishment.

Romney Asks Trump to Apologize

From the candidate who allowed the media (and others on the Left), to twist his words into--what were they again? Oh yes, he "kept women in binders."

Your words are just as seditious, Mitt. Go away, or be counted with the rest of them.

Trumps next press conference should start out like this: "FU, FU, FU, who's next?"

SC conservatives are not stupid. I don’t think they actually gave him a win in many past elections. Rather, Miss Linda has the same election fraud software as McTraitor.

Romney, McCain, Rubio, Dick Morris are all part of the effort to normalize political violence, up to and including assassination, by their willingness to give antifa and Black Lies Matter their stamp of approval, and pass on their violence.

We might have reached the tipping point where the dem/media/gope have all agreed that political violence is now the norm, and they are OK with that.

Mitt Romney is active in Mormon leadership. That religion (cult?) has a really bad foundation. I looked up Mountain Meadows massacre, as a FReeper suggested....that is morally as horrific as can be imagined. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young....why is Romney not calling for their full histories to be exposed before he makes assumptions about President Trump’s motives? Romney’s hypocrisy and self-serving big mouth know no bounds.

The real culprits from what I was was Antifa and BLM. The Kessler group referred to as “White Supremists” and others were having a peaceful deomonstration in the park and had a permit to do do.

Antifa and BLM gathered with clubs outside the park.

The Mayor closed the park and told the police to remove the peaceful demonstrators.

The Kessler group then had to come in contact with the violent Antifa and BLM and the battle was on.

That is what I saw, am I right???

I am not sure where the KKK and neo-nazi came into the picture.
