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.

Just when you thought every Trump hating Washington slime ball had finished making the stupid, dishonest comments about Khashoggi, up comes the biggest a-hole of them all, Romney, to pile on with more stupid comments.

I wonder why Romney felt more comfortable criticizing the President in the state media rather than to his face - in private. Interesting.

If barky still occupied the WH, no one — and I mean NO ONE — would be giving a flying flip about Khashoggi!

Someone remind Mittens that governments have people killed. That's how they roll. We have people killed every day. Twice on Sunday.

Maybe we should start sending our CIA agents to journalism school so that they could get an added layer of protection.

They’re keeping Iran in check among other things. There’s balance in the middle east right now thanks to them. Yes, they have issues, but we need them right now.

Romney’s not even seated yet, and I’m already tired of his crap. He’s going to pick up wherever Flake leaves off.

Romney is aching to be the “Peace marker’ of all time according to the mormon calender of events. He’s just trying to role play the part he’s been given to play to convince the membership he is ‘Still the One”...

I think it’s cute that The Hill went to the Kiddie Table of Politics to get The Zitt’s opinion.
