Mitt Romney announces bid for U.S. Senate in Utah
NBC News ^ | February 16, 2018 | Adam Edelman

Posted on 02/16/2018 6:28:45 AM PST by Trump20162020

Mitt Romney, the GOP’s presidential candidate in 2012 and a former governor of Massachusetts, announced Friday that he would run for U.S. Senate in Utah.

“I have decided to run for United States Senate because I believe I can help bring Utah’s values and Utah’s lessons to Washington,” Romney said in a video announcing his bid.

“Given all that America faces, we feel that this is the right time for me to serve our state and our country,” he said.

Romney pointed to Utah's balanced budget and trade surplus as examples of the state's strengths, comparing them with Washington's debt and trade deficit.

“Utah has a lot to teach the politicians in Washington,” Romney said.

“He’s doing this 100% to sabotage Trump”

Don’t know about that but his outbursts against Trump:

“A con man, a fake, a phony, a fraud”
“Must not become president”

Very unprofessional of him. He lowered himself. Also, Trump’s performance so far makes his statements appear to be incorrect.

He’s going to be a thorn in the President’s side. Just watch.

“Can’t Willard switch over to the Rat party? He so embodies them.”

Willard is the picture boy of the undocumented Democrat pretending to be a responsible Republican.

The only one worse is his buddy McCainal.

Both are protected by the Deep State’s media.

This lists Utah as one of the twelve states (plus D.C.) that currently gives driver's licenses to illegals:

https://immigration.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=005535

They're the only red state on the list, and they started allowing them in 2005, making them one of the earlier adapters in a sea of states that legalized illegals' licenses in 2013-2015.

I think you have it covered. He moves like Clinton did, he knows where he can cause the most problems by getting elected.

Romney pulled his head out of his anus long enough to speak?

Not all of us in UT will vote for romney. As withg everywhere, there are LIBs and RINOs...especially in SLC.

“Senator for life from Utah.”

The guy is just an old Baby Boomer who as every Baby Boomer refuses to just leave. Well thank God he is 70 and Senator for life will not be long.

if nothing else I’m confident he’d support Trump’s judicial appointments and that’s the most important thing right now.

Excellent point. Speaking of, supposedly they were supposed to confirm 4 judicial judges yesterday. I hope they didn’t get distracted from the shooting. Sadly Congress can’t do two things at once.

If I lived in Utah, I’d vote for the Democrat instead of letting Romney win - and I’m serious.

Clearly, he’s setting himself as an anti-Trump spokesman - proclaiming that “Utah welcomes immigrants!” in his announcement. Boy... just what the party needs. Another back-stabbing leftist POS in power in OUR party.

Unfortunately, too many people in Utah would vote for a pile of dirt if it belonged to their religion, so there’s 0% chance of Romney being defeated. Sad.

Romney is worse than a dem senator, he will vote against Trump every step of the way, and the news will cheer like they do McCain. I would rather send support to the dem opponent
