Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) made clear in an interview with The Atlantic on Wednesday that he will not vote for President Trump's re-election in November.
Driving the news: Romney sent shockwaves through Washington after announcing he would vote to convict Trump in the impeachment trial — becoming the only Senate Republican to break ranks and vote for the president's removal from office.
"The president delayed funds for an American ally at war with Russian invaders," Romney said in a speech on the Senate floor. "The president's purpose was personal and political. Accordingly, the president is guilty of an appalling abuse of public trust." Yes, but: Romney also stated that "under no circumstances" would he vote for Sens. Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren, who could face off against Trump in the general election.
Romney wrote in his wife's name on the ballot in 2016. "She’ll probably get [a] second vote," he told The Atlantic.

Since none of their leading candidates can win, ROMNEY MIGHT SWITCH PARTIES TO BECOME THE ACCEPTABLE DEMOCRAT NOMINEE !!
I think it's far fetched, but there it is.
Who cares Mitt!
Mitt having a Schiff fit.
TDS.
The Bishop is taking his little red wagon home and going to cry to mama.
Loser.
I’m sure Donald will be grief stricken at this news.
Well, duh, Willard. Since you voted to convict and remove Trump from office, it would be shocking if you turned around and voted him back in.
They’ve already got lots of shallow, conceited, paper-thin candidates who don’t stand for anything - what would they need Romney for? Because of the millions of Republicans he would pull in with him? Lol.
Fag
I am beginning to think that is not far fetched at all. Strange things are happening .
A brokered convention anyone. Hillary, Romney and who else?
Utah is safe for Trump. Romney’s vote could not matter less.
Who cares? Mitt can go f*ck himself.
Yes sure President Trump was so afraid of Biden. God awful liars and evil scum.
Who GAS?!
Good lord, that's something I hadn't considered until just now.
The (maybe) good news is that Romney may be sufficiently unacceptable to the Far Left and BernieBots that they stay home.
If Romney pulls that stunt, I'll pray that Bernie goes third-party and splits the Dems down the middle.
His Treason of the GOP is even more so. What demented universe does Romney live in. In his little world he is the Hero of the U.S. and the GOP on his white stallion to save us all.
I can see Mittens running as an Independent, like Bernie. He’ll be the moderate with nice hair that the rank and file dems will go to.
I think Romney has dementia. He spouts off that additional witnesses are need to prove the impeachment articles, then votes guilty when no more new witnesses or materials are allowed into the trial. He is worse than a snake, he’s a demented fool. Utahans should recall the fool on grounds that he is incapable of doing the job of a senator.
Utter nonsense. He is congenitally unsuited to be a Democrat since he does not agree with any of their dogma except hating Trump.
