Romney calls for nation to 'get behind' Biden
CNN ^ | Nov 8 | By Devan Cole and Veronica Stracqualursi

Posted on 11/08/2020 10:24:28 AM PST by RandFan

Republican Sen. Mitt Romney on Sunday called for the country to "get behind" President-elect Joe Biden and said he has seen no evidence of widespread voter fraud, even as President Donald Trump has pushed for election-related lawsuits and refused to concede the election.

"I think we get behind the new president, unless for some reason that's overturned, we get behind the new president and wish him the very best," Romney, who was the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."

While CNN and other networks projected Saturday that Biden will become the 46th President of the United States and Kamala Harris will become vice president, Trump has pushed his attorneys to pursue legal challenges that would delay formal certification of the results. And as his path to reelection narrowed, the President pushed baseless claims of voter fraud -- claims Romney cast doubt on Sunday.

"I do believe, however, that it's destructive to the cause of democracy to suggest widespread fraud or corruption. There's just no evidence of that at this stage. And I think it's important for us to recognize that the world is watching," Romney said.

When we want a loser’s advice, we’ll seek it. Trump’s pinky has more fight than Mittens can fathom. Such a disgrace.

That guy looks good to me. He is taking leave to help Trump

He has a promising future for sure.

Problem is Mitt is just going to be hard to get rid of. Then again, I thought that about Bennett and Mike Lee took him down. Lee was a virtually unknown attorney back then.

Me thinks someone is looking to try again in 2024. He’s just as dirty with is hands in the till as many of the other elite insiders. Don’t think they spend their time in congress to help you, you are not their first priority, their enrichment is #1.

Mitt slipped in there under a cloak of Mormanism and name recogition. But he is showing the Utah voter why he was able to win over the Massachusetts electorate.

Exactly.

The good news is they have a convention allowing underdogs to compete better for the nomination.

That is how Mike Lee knocked off Bennett.

BUT .. Mitt is so well known.. as much we hate it he is probably safe unless people there get really upset with him and can get behind an alternative..

Anything is possible!

Tell it to your friends at Fox News, Mitt. Tell it to Chuckie, Nanzi, and all your other Capitol Hill cronies. I listened to you once but never again.

Romney is still jealous that Trump made it into the Presidency and not him. Not sure why the call to committy with Biden when he never suggested it for Trump.

Oh, it’s no fun for his type to wear the colors of his teammates. More fun for his type to wear an R jersey and tackle R players.

I see a lot of uncertainty in that statement from maggot Romney and also very telling in it's structure:

I think we get behind the new president... (his fervent and desperate wish...)

...unless for some reason that's overturned,... (treading lightly here and maintaining that IT IS POSSIBLE...)

And just like that the rioting and looting has ceased overnight. And now the half of the country that pummeled America like a battered wife is telling her to put on sunglasses, hide her black eye, be a good girl, and “come together as one.” Her answer? “Go fuck yourself.”

Bishop Dullard got his turducken ass carved when Trump dangled SoS in front of him with NO intention of ever picking Pierre for the spot.

I mean Trump let Mittens out on a long lead line: at the Jean Georges "confere confrere" all-you-can-defeat dinner at TrumpNY, Romney had 'plans for Iran', 'plans for Ukraine', 'plans for Africa', maybe not so many plans to 'control China'; but none of it mattered because Trump was NEVER giving him ANY position, and Romney cannot live it down that he was punked that HARD by our beloved President Trump,.

I think Romney doesn’t know what actually happened in this election. He hasn’t done any research on this subject and he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He should stop talking and direct his staff to start investigating the numbers.

Like a lot of very successful conservatives with very high incomes, he’s overoptimistic and overconfident about everything working out well for the USA and the average American. He also knows that if the country ends up under the rule of a corrupt socialist machine and the health care system goes into a steep decline, he can afford to fly to Switzerland to get high-quality health care.

So Romney should stop making uninformed statements about the election and start digging into the numbers. He’s a financial wizard so he should be really good at understanding all the evidence of vote fraud that’s in the numbers, such as the mysterious, unprecedented 90% turnout in Wisconsin on Tuesday.
