Mitt Romney (R) said the "last 24 hours" have confirmed his "faith" in the U.S. justice system after President Trump's former campaign chairman was convicted on eight felony counts while his former personal lawyer pleaded guilty to various counts including campaign finance law violations.
"The events of the last 24 hours confirm that conduct by highly-placed individuals was both dishonorable and illegal," Romney, who is running for the Senate in Utah, wrote in a tweet on Wednesday.
"Also confirmed is my faith in our justice system and my conviction that we are a nation committed to the rule of law."
Romney, who ran for president in 2012 as the Republican nominee, did not mention President Trump, whom he has occasionally come out against.
On Tuesday, a jury found former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort guilty on eight charges of bank and tax fraud. Minutes later, Trump's former personal lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts of bank fraud, tax fraud and campaign finance law violations.
Cohen implicated Trump in the campaign finance violations, claiming the then-candidate had directed him to pay "hush money" to silence two women alleging affairs with Trump.
Republican lawmakers have, for the most part, stayed out of the fray surrounding Cohen's stunning accusation.
House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said he needs "more information" before coming to conclusions and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) did not respond to requests for comment, according to CNN.
GOPe = RAT = UniParty = DS = Communist
They’re ALL the same....no difference.
This POS is a classic example.
He still doesn’t understand why he couldn’t beat bammy.
FOAD
Mitt, which "rule of law" convicts Paul Manafort, but not his partner Tony Podesta?

"...faith in justice system..."
Please people of Utah do not elect this RINO loser to the Senate.
So, a Maniford conviction and a coerced plea deal with Cohen to Romney confirms ‘my faith in our justice system’. Yet, Obama weaponizing the IRS, DOJ, FBI, CIA, with impunity does nothing to question his faith in the system. Romney is al mentally ill as the democrats with their hatred of Trump. Utah, you are idiots if you put this slimeball in the senate.
Ya know as much as I hated Barack Obama..having Mitt Romney as President might have been worse, yeah I said it..this douche bag is such a supreme turd Im almost glad he didnt win
He worships Baal from the Planet Kolob.
The tweet tells me that regardless of outcome of the election, a Democrat will represent Utah.
Mormon moron.
You will never be Pres Mittens..never
No bigger elitist scumbag than this guy.
Maybe he’d feel a little different if a special prosecutor was appointed to look into his finances.
Redundant.
We are not operating in this case pursuant to the Rule of Law.
We are operating according to the rape of the spirit of the law by prosecutors using pure power to coerce pleas from victims for political or vengeance motives.
he is an idiot, I just lost all faith in that prick as a human being
Does Mitt also believe in Magic Underwear?
What a complete jerk.
Other than his belief in a polygamous and pedophiliac founder, submarines that flip upside down, mormon armor, 5 million dead on Palmyra Hill mountain meadows massacre, celestial marriage and Satan is the brother of God there’s really not much wrong with this chap!
Rush had a short segment on this earlier. I’m sure my BP went up as he explained how Romney’s comments support Mueller’s investigations without Mittens mentioning his name in the article. Romney is a long time swamp dweller without actually having lived there.
