Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Friday pushed back against President Trump's baseless claim that the election is being stolen, warning that his rhetoric is only inflaming partisan tensions.
Romney, in a statement posted to Twitter, said the president was "right" to "exhaust legal remedies," including asking for recounts and that alleged voting irregularities be investigated, but "wrong to say that the election was rigged, corrupt and stolen."
"Doing so damages the cause of freedom here and around the world, weakens the institutions that lie at the foundation of the Republic and recklessly inflames destructive and dangerous passions," Romney added.
His statement comes as Republicans are increasingly pushing back as Trump digs in on his claims that the election is being stolen from him through illegal actions by Democrats in battleground states where votes are still being counted.

Typical Bush League Republican.
In your face fraud rampant all over the country and he refuses to see it.
The deer in the headlight look he had when he realized he'd been had was amazing.
Yet he did nothing about it.
Watermarks, Mitt. Watermarks. As usual you are nothing but a toady and sycophant for the Left.
240 million votes? This number is staggering and filled with massive fraud.
And Romney’s such a tiger that if he thinks something is too aggressive, like you know, brushing your teeth, well, then you know you’re on the bleeding edge....
I wonder how much “reaching across the aisle” good old Mitt is getting ready to do?
After the republican senate candidates leads evaporate, and the two run offs are over with, I wonder how long it will be before he pulls a Jeffords.
Sure looks like it.
Its like saying that calling out the burglars is BAD as you are disturbing the neighborhood!!
nobody in DC wants what We the People in the states intend to happen for DC
They have ALL come together to retain their “rulership”
Well the one thing we have in our power is to rid the GOP of those parasites once and for all.
Same thing happened to you Romney and you did nothing! This guy pops up to sow seeds of dissension. If I lived in Utah, I would be livid he is my Senator.
“Doing so damages the cause of freedom here and around the world, weakens the institutions that lie at the foundation of the Republic and recklessly inflames destructive and dangerous passions,” Romney added.

Kind of like how you made a lot of dough off of China and then don’t call China out for its own one party rule.. If there is an H for Hypocrit Party in Hell, MiTT is one of its leaders.
He could care less about Trump losing, he wins either way.. but will always be a loser in reality and defending freedoms for anyone except the US citizens and patriots who deserve better than to be sold out again to the highest bidder.
Romney is evil.
Take the middle “m” out of Mormon, and that is what Romney really is.
He is dangerous because he denies us our constitutional right to a free and fair election.
Romney is gaslighting.
If there isn’t some review and reconciliation of votes, there’s no contest to be won or lost.
It won’t have been an election.
Translation: “Bend over and take it.”
I am a Christian, but I can say that I despise Romney more than any Democrat
Romney is living in a fantasy world. He thanks Trump is the only sonuvabitch in American politics. Look, I love decent fellows like Mike Pence, Bob Dole and Ronald Reagan. But, Trump won the nomination in 2016, and that makes him our guy.
PS if anybody forgot, Romney was the lone Republican in the Senate to vote to remove Trump from office based, supposedly, on the Ukraine hoax.
he being Romney. Romney is dangerous. T
Mitt hasn’t the slightest idea what ‘the right page’ looks
like, since he’s on the wrong on 99.999% of the time.
