Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said he did not believe President Donald Trump’s actions as laid out in special counsel Robert Mueller’s 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 it’s difficult in order to make a case for obstruction of justice or impeachment, not an underlying crime, I think it’s difficult to put together an effective case to prosecute for those crimes.”
He added, “I’ve made it clear I will support the president on policies where we agree. I’ll disagree with him openly if there’s 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 there’s been some call where the president has distanced himself from some of the best qualities of the human character.”

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Onion,”
You know who I hate more than the Delusional Lying Leftists? Republicans like Romney who are actually in the same boat as the Left. They’re double liars - truly the Enemy Within.
If I had to choose between Romney or DeBlasio, I’d get drunk first, and I rarely drink, like maybe once a year at most.
Mitt is gonna run.
MYTH is really jealous of the fact that PRESIDENT TRUMP kicked lying Hillary’s ass and won the Presidency hands down, when he couldn’t even beat the ignorant, lying, (but CLEAN) black communist that was occupying the white hut.
Sigh. Same ole same ole. The GOPe is more than willing to agree with the leftists in the name of being seen as “gentlemen” and “civil.” They stand there as the left repeatedly kicks them in their nether regions, laughing at their weakness. Yet they are all to willing to viciously attack anyone who is supposedly on their side.
We saw these GOPe idiots engage in nothing more than management of the decline of America. The whole while they told us that they were the o my choice if we hoped to have our agenda advanced. They hate Trump because he exposed their lies.
Every time Mitt Romney opens his mouth, I am reminded why Trump is the better choice. Does he go too far sometimes? Sure, but I prefer that to these cowardly, stand for nothing types who accept every left wing premise and cower in the corner apologizing for their mere existence.
I’ll say it loud and clear, Mitt Romney is a coward. He stands for nothing unless it is convenient and gains him the acceptance of his leftist overlords.
Mitt has none of those virtues ( a really bad case of projection) and Trump blows him away in every category.
Typical Mormon. Take a few more prescription pills and go to sleep, Mittens.
then a 45 up your bunghole, and please MYTH, don’t forget to pull the trigger.
They didn't consider blacks equal human beings until 1978, when BYU was getting its collective butts kicked in football.
Trust me, the minute one of their leaders has a "vision", the Mormons could easily become a bunch of leftie pederasts.
The most arrogant group of people in the country are Mormons.
Mitt Romney is a misfit and a loser. I voted for Trump because I got tired of seeing the GOP trot out these tiresome globalist @ssholes as presidential candidates for 25 years.
What a jealous old fag he is.
He isn’t running for anything. He’d lose to Trump in a head-to-head race even if Romney’s family members were the only people allowed to vote.
Obstruction of what justice? An indictment for collusion with the Russians (not illegal I’ve read) that was found never to never have happened?

The GOP the biggest scam going..
Time for Trump to start a third party..
____________________________________________________
They are a scam, but it’s easier to keep control of an already existing party than to start a new one. The trick is to just keep outing the scum forcefully like Trump does. Of course, the big problem comes AFTER Trump. What other personality has the conviction, character, and skill to even try to cull the Swamp?
Romney wouldn’t recognize “humility, honesty and integrity “ if they walked up and kissed his arse
