Romney blasts Trump, Pompeo response to Saudis: 'Inconsistent' with 'American greatness'
The Hill ^ | 11/21/18 | John Bowden

Posted on 11/21/2018 12:56:19 PM PST by detective

Sen.-elect Mitt Romney(R-Utah) (R-Utah) on Wednesday condemned President Trump's and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's latest comments about journalist Jamal Khashoggi's killing, calling them "inconsistent" with the U.S. national interest.

"The President's and Secretary of State's Khashoggi statements to date are inconsistent with an enduring foreign policy, with our national interest, with basic human rights, and with American greatness," Romney said in a statement.

"Sanctions do not necessarily require ending the alliance; they do demand real and painful consequence," he added.

Exactly right. Romney is going to be a huge pain in the neck/side/bxxxx of President Trump for the next two/six years.

So sick of him already.

The Saudis at least pretend to be our friends, whereas Koshoggi’s beloved Muslim Brotherhood does not. Trump just came down on the side of the lesser of two evils.

Oh. So now the Fake News Media gives a flying fig about what Mitt Romney says. Huh. I wonder where that was when he was running for President.

F*** you, Mittens, you magic underwear POS! You’re not the president and you never will be the president!!

You’re a cheap B rate LOSER, and no one wants to hear your Flake/McStain-like nasty attacks on Trump. Shut up, go away, go make out with your lesbian lover, Jeff Flake.

Hurting SA would hurt the US, and would help Iran. So no deal. Besides, the murder or whatever wasn’t committed on US soil.

Be careful there Romnut. The leftist media will gladly repeat and embellish everything you say negatively about Trump or this Administration. Becoming Jeff Flake/Corker/mcCain,etc right away will not serve you well at all. The GOPe is being flushed from the republican party and not soon enough IMHO.

Romney was the loser who lost to the loser McCain who lost to Obama.

Why should his opinion matter?

Hopefully this will give Mitch McConnel some ideas when he decides which committee this dickhead should be on.

How about stick Mittens on the Commerce Subcomittee for the Regulation of Magic Underwear?

Cleaning the Congressional toilets would be too good for him.
