Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), who voted to convict President Trump for abuse of power last week, claimed on Sunday that he “agonized” over the responsibility that came with his decision and said he had “hoped beyond hope” he would not find President Trump guilty.

Speaking to KSL’s Sunday Edition during the weekend, Romney, who asserted last week that the president “committed an act so extreme and egregious that it rises to the level of a high crime and misdemeanor,” said he “agonized over the responsibility that ultimately would come [his] way” and proclaimed that he “hoped beyond hope” he would not find Trump guilty.

Sounds like he’s going to try to weasel it out and puleeze take me back!

And Mittens prayed fervently, several times a day, for prophetic guidance, as well.

this guy is fooling nobody. As much as we agonized with Obama for 4 more years, a Romney/Ryan presidency would have poisoned the GOP for a generation.

Romney and Ryan would have run the country like democrats.

[RatRipper]

He already looked like a whore. Now he looks like a shameless, lying whore.

If he had doubts he should not have voted guilty. If not he should be able to explain what President Trump was guilty of. He merely lowered himself to the ethics level of the Senate democrats.

“Whats next? You going to tell us McCains ghost told you to do it?”

How did you know!

Oh stfu Mitt...just move along and take your dog for a ride or something....if you cannot recognize that the alleged offenses were not grounds for impeachment or even unlawful and that the House impeachment was a charade by partisan buffoons then you are beyond help....go do some Pierre Delecto stuff....

[STJPII]

I agonize that he will be in the U.S. Senate for four more years.

[DannyTN]

I call BS. Mitt tried hard to convince other republicans to call more witnesses and continue the witch hunt.

If he already had enough evidence to convict, then he didn’t need more witnesses.

I’m debating inside if this guy is just big jerk or a little fool

The answer is "yes."

[Sam Gamgee]

So full of himself. The Christian left is embracing him though.

[Boardwalk]

Just like he gave a second thought to strapping his dog to the top of his mini van. Raising Arizona.

No need for all the agony, Mitt. Just say “Not Guilty” when it came your turn.

But NOOOOO, you had to go all drama queen, and managed with the omission of one word, “Not”, to burn every bridge you ever crossed on the way to the History books.

So close. And all those good looks sent over from Central Casting for the performance as “Senior Statesman”.

[RasterMaster]

Hard to vote your conscience when you and your offspring are neck deep in the swamp of corruption.

[Tx Angel]

And I hope beyond hope that Trump curse takes out a big chunk of his ass.
