Mitt Romney said it is "too early" to say he will support President Trump in 2020.
The Utah candidate for U.S. senator further explained to MSNBC's Kasie Hunt, in an interview that aired Sunday evening, that his prior prediction that Trump will get re-elected was not an endorsement.
"I also think Gavin Newsom will get elected [as governor] in California. That's not something I want to see, it's just something that's probably going to happen," Romney added.
Romney was also prompted to speak about whether he wants a Republican to challenge Trump in a 2020 primary.
"There will be people who decide, I presume, to get in a Republican primary," he said in reply.
Romney, a former governor of Massachusetts who was the failed 2012 Republican presidential nominee, was a harsh critic of Trump during the 2016 election, calling him a "phony" and a "fraud," but the two appeared to put their differences aside as Romey was briefly considered by Trump to be his first secretary of state.
This traitor. Trump endorsed him...which was a HUGE mistake because a blind man could have seen him going to Washington and being the new media darling, the fly in the ointment. He's McCain 2.0. Still, after the way he treated Trump in 2016, Trump endorsed him anyway, and he's going to do this? I'd have thought he'd at least wait until after he got elected. I guess he figures he's home free in Utah. The people of Utah, though, should have known better. They had some fantastic candidates like Larry Meyers who would have helped Trump. Maybe that's not what they want, though. Maybe they want someone who will be another McCain and "stand up" to Trump. I don't know. I don't live in Utah, so I don't understand the thinking out there. Mitt just used their state anyway. He'd have run from any state he would have thought would have elected him.
Note:
"There will be people who decide, I presume, to get in a Republican primary," he said in reply.
Would that person be him? I think so. Larry Meyers had a document that the other candidates would sign pledging not to run in 2020. Mitt didn't sign it.
He's the snake from that poem that Trump reads at his rallies.

Hey Mitt, nobody gives a f___ who you support.
Romney, who I worked my ass off for...once he got the nomination....
turns out to be a snake in the grass.
No way would I ever support him again.
He’s been positively embarrassing since he “threw” his election
” but the two appeared to put their differences aside as Romey was briefly considered by Trump to be his first secretary of state.”
and Trump played him splendidly LOL..
A real leader. S/
RINO idiot.
Everyone knows the individual he won’t endorse...(RINO Romney, like BHO, just won’t go away; career dudes in the limelight)...
Romney is such a turd.
Who supports looser Dog-On-Roofer now?

Gee, don’t strain yourself, Mitt, you worthless piece of crap.
Romney is now effectively a Democrat in the Senate whose objective is to go on power trips and/or derail the Trump agenda. The only recourse is to win an extra seat to nullify his presence.
Romney will be worse than McCain.
Utah has swapped a Hatch for a hatchet-man.
Who does Mitt think he is. He DOES NOT count. He was rejected once, he’s worse than Hillary. Go Away Mitt,
Mitt is trying to be a tease.
But, few care.
Loser.
Thanks Utah
He must be wetting his magic underwear to be getting so much attention.
