Sunday on CNNs State of the Union, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said he did not believe President Donald Trumps actions as laid out in special counsel Robert Muellers report rise to the level of impeachment, but the president does not exhibit the best qualities of human character.
Host Jake Tapper asked if Trump has disgraced the office of the president.
Romney said, I think a number of things were unfortunate and distressing. Clearly the number of times there were items of dishonesty, misleading the American public and media are things you would not be want to see from the highest office in the land.
He continued, Abuse of power is at a whole other level, which suggests impeachment. I think in part one of the things its difficult in order to make a case for obstruction of justice or impeachment, not an underlying crime, I think its difficult to put together an effective case to prosecute for those crimes.
He added, Ive made it clear I will support the president on policies where we agree. Ill disagree with him openly if theres something I think is wrong for the country or for my state. But I think he could substantially improve his game when it comes to helping shape the character of the country. I think young people, as well as people around the world, look at the president of the United States and say, does he exhibit the kind of qualities we would want to emulate? And those are qualities of humility, of honesty, integrity, and those are things where I think theres been some call where the president has distanced himself from some of the best qualities of the human character.

The GOP the biggest scam going..
Time for Trump to start a third party..
FUMR
Bite me Mittens!
Mitt would have liked Trump much better if he had “lost with dignity and humility”. Mitt should just shut his mouth and go away.
Mitt Romney wouldn’t recognize integrity if it bit him in his food waste exit.
In fact, Romney IS a food waste exit.
Bunch of Idiots telling us about Trump when we can see and hear Trump for ourselves
There should be a MAGA party
Says the guy who has distanced himself from reality and thinks he should have been president. Loser.
Does he have any clue how out of touch with the GOP rank & file he is?
RINO dog eats _hit.
Who appointed Mitt Romney as Donald Trumps moral judge? Who does he think he is, Jim, the Phony, Comey?
The GOP is our party. GOP Party is conservative. If the milquetoast Liberal Republicans want to take over aparty, I say let them consume Democrat Party since the Socialist taking over.
Mitt, Real America doesnt watch Sunday morning shows. No one heard you .
Papa don’t preach!
RINO dog gets put on roof of car.
Gee...Im starting to think that Mitt is a bit of an a-hole. (Extreme understatement)
Romney is SUCH a pompous jerk
He was all too eager to get a job in Trumps administration
What a looser.....but we already knew that.
Milt is projecting. Again.
