Mitt Romney still can’t see himself voting for presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. However, he can’t bring himself to vote for the Democratic counterpart, Hillary Clinton, either.

But the 2012 GOP nominee has a solution: putting his own wife’s name on the ballot.

“It’s a matter of personal conscience,” Romney told CBS News’ John Dickerson Wednesday at the Aspen Ideas Festival. “I can’t vote for either of those two people.”

Romney explained that he simply cannot get behind Trump’s divisive character.

“Our nominee is saying, ‘Hey look it’s these people here. It’s these Mexicans coming across the border... it’s them, and it’s Muslims,” he said. “And unfortunately, I’m afraid that the things Mr. Trump has said have been unfortunately branding of our party in a negative way.”

He expressed his opposition to Clinton in less dramatic terms. “Hillary Clinton is wrong on every issue, but she’s wrong within the normal parameters,” Romney said.

Ann Romney, however, would be “an ideal president,” he added.

"Well, isn't that special."

“He’s a Democrat operative along with his boy Ryan, that last election was a farce to ensure Obama did a 2nd term.”

You may be on to something.

That’s what the write-in option is for. If you don’t like the choices offered, name your own.

This ars hole Mormon jackass is crazy.

Actually Romney may be on to something. Instead of various liberal at heart RINOS and other assorted fake conservatives voting for Hillary they should all write in Ann Romney. Also, actual Democrats who can't stomach voting for Hillary, but want to vote for a woman can either vote for Jill Stein if she's on the ballot in their state, or write in Ann Romney.

That way they'll feel better, and their vote won't help Hillary. In the mean time the rest of us will vote Trump and make America great again, saving our entire nation, including the RINO idiots, from Hillary's corruption.

Just as Palin had to stand up against corrupt Republicans in Alaska, Trump must stand up against all the corruption in Republican party.

That is the primary reason the GOPe went bonkers at the idea of her candidacy and did all they could to obstruct her. As President she would have endangered the corrupt among them.

Mitt can sit and spin. And I say this as someone who once voted for him.

[Vigilanteman]

In an informal poll of my Mormon Facebook friends, 85% of them want Mitt to STFU and just go away.

Girly-man

[dfwgator]

Anyone who was lambasted here for not voting for Romney (Full disclosure: I did vote for Romney), deserves an apology.

One of the elite among the elites, a sore loser, and a traitor to support of he Constitution.

Is he married to Hillary Clinton?

[SaraJohnson]

Oh noez. How can we win without Bishop Romney’s vote.

Does he think it is NOT Mexican illegals? Good God!

[Warriormom]

I agree 100%! I called Cruz’s office and asked if he was lyin’ when he signed the pledge to support the nominee.

[Williams]

We did what we had to do at the time, but Romney is one sick dude.

[who knows what evil?]

Hillary/Mitt 2016...after all, ‘what difference does it make?’

[Warriormom]

I agree 100%! I called Cruz’s office and asked if he was lyin’ when he signed the pledge to support the nominee.

I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth.
