Fox News Exclusive: Romney says he had to follow 'conscience' on vote to convict Trump, expects ‘enormous consequences’.
Fox News ^ | 2/5/2020 | Tyler Olson

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, told Fox News' Chris Wallace Wednesday in an exclusive interview that he "had to follow my conscience" in deciding to vote to convict President Trump on abuse of power, a decision that's likely to ignite serious blowback from Trump and others in the Republican Party.

"I believe that the act he took, an effort to corrupt an election is as destructive an attack on the oath of office and our Constitution as I can imagine," Romney said. "It is a high crime and misdemeanor within the meaning of the Constitution, and that is not a decision I take lightly. It is the last decision I want to take."

Please just ignore this Trump hating drama queen.

He isn’t worth the time.

He is FREDO. I don’t want to see, hear, or know him. He is dead to me.

[Romney has no conscience. Pushed abortion for his entire adult life until he decided to run for president as a Republican. Also pushed homo marriage, open-borders, globalism, socialist health care, gun control, etc. He’s a Trump-hating godless liberal and hypocritical liar. He’s probably mixed up in the Ukrainian corruption himself.]

Yep. Mitt is a pure Obama/Hillary Democrat. Nothing less than that.

One of the irrelevant three percenters. The stooge media has a hero for about a week, then they’re gut mittens like the blow fish he is.

Romney is associated with Burisma - Hunter Biden connection, no?

Romney's vote against POTUS gives him protection. If Romney's Burisma ties ever come to light in an investigation, he can now claim it's political persecution, payback for his vote against Trump.

What ‘consequences’? He chose to end his career as a Republican. That simple.

Joseph Cofer Black, his former foreign affairs advisor in 2012 and Burisma board member as of 2017. Wonder what may have taken place between 2012 and 2017?

Romney says he was investigating Biden for political purposes. So would he prosecute the Obama officials who investigated trump and would he prosecute clinton?

As the Ukrainian connections are exposed, the money laundering of tans of millions of taxpayer monies sent as aid to Ukraine will be shown to have enriched men not yet exposed. Kerry, Romney, Schiff, these are but three who ended up getting taxpayer dollars via Ukraine money laundering through countries such as Latvia. Hillary Criminlinton sucked in over 25 million from the Ukraine ...
