Donald Trump attacks Senators Mitt Romney and Pat Toomey as 'RINOS' after the two Republicans condemn his commutation of Roger Stone's jail sentence as 'corruption' and a 'mistake'
UK Daily Mail ^ | July 12 2020 | GEOFF EARLE / ANDREW COURT / ARIEL ZILBER

President Donald Trump attacked a pair of Republican senators who condemned his Friday night order to grant clemency to longtime advisor Roger Stone – calling them Republicans 'in name only.'

His late-night blast came after they became the only GOP senators to rebuke Trump for eliminating the 40-month sentence for his longtime associate, who was convicted by a jury of witness tampering and lying to Congress.

The response of Romney – the only Republican to vote for an article of impeachment against Trump – was withering, while that of Toomey was more measured, but both said Trump's decision was wrong.

I would call that an accurate statement of fact as opposed to an “attack”.

If someone someday brings Mittens to justice for his investment and tax shelter improprieties, he will be yelling on his knees for mercy before going to a Covid Hotel prison.

Do RINO’S Pat Toomey & Mitt Romney have any problem with the fact that we caught Obama, Biden, & Company illegally spying on my campaign? Do they care if Comey, McCabe, Page & her lover, Peter S, the whole group, ran rampant, wild & unchecked - lying & leaking all the way? NO!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 12, 2020

Hey, Romney...he was talking about you!

The President has the backing of 96 percent of Republicans. These two represent the remainder.

FYI The left is all upset that Roger Stone did not go to jail. They are saying Trump can not pardon someone who has not served jail time.........so you can point out to them “Bahram Mechanic” who Obama pardoned prior to his sentencing. What makes this cause even more interesting (and showing the lefts hypocrisy) is that not only was he..””” freed from the criminal justice system before a jury had a chance to determine his guilt or innocence.””” and the “federal government’s evidence against Mechanic remains sealed” but it sounds like to me he was apart of the IRAN DEAL...so when Nancy or Nadlar gets all upset on twitter about how wrong and unheard of what Trump did...point to this case and shut down their false talking point https://www.houstonpress.com/news/why-did-the-us-government-give-bahram-mechanic-a-get-out-of-jail-free-card-8316432

Trump should claim he let him out due to the virus in the prisons. Like California.

They knew from day one that the only Russian collusion was by the FBI and DOJ. They knew the “intel” they had was likely Russian disinformation. And then used that information exactly the way the Russians intended.

They knew from day one that the Russian collusion crap was made up! Roger Stone should never have been questioned under oath by anyone!

The saddest thing is that Adam Schiff has condemned ALL Senate Republicans with the deaths of 130,000 people because they didn't remove President Trump from office, and in return the Republicans run from Trump when he commutes the sentence of someone who was caught up in the Democrats' coup d'etat plot.
