Days before he officially becomes a U.S. senator, Mitt Romney took to the Washington Post to fire a shot across President Trump’s bow, saying Mr. Trump had made a “deep descent” in December and is hurting the national character.
In an op-ed column published online Tuesday evening, Mr. Romney, now a Republican senator-elect for Utah, came down hardest on recent moves in foreign policy and Cabinet positions related to that.
“After he became the nominee, I hoped his campaign would refrain from resentment and name-calling. It did not. When he won the election, I hoped he would rise to the occasion. His early appointments of Rex Tillerson, Jeff Sessions, Nikki Haley, Gary Cohn, H.R. McMaster, Kelly and Mattis were encouraging. But, on balance, his conduct over the past two years, particularly his actions this month, is evidence that the president has not risen to the mantle of the office,” he wrote.

LOL
@RealDonaldTrump “Hey Mittens, remember when you begged me for an ambassadorship?
Apparently neither did Romney. He lost his bid.
Next question?
FUMR bump for later...
I wish John James had won in Michigan and nit wit Mitt had lost in Utah.
John McCain Romney!!!!
So who didnt see this coming?
More than any other religion, Mormons do what they are told.
My Conservative Mormon friends living in CO voted for Hillary.
I was shocked
Bet Romney voted for Hillary.
No. Like Harry Reid he will always have the Mormon vote
Romney needs to be flooded with protest letters from deplorables......he should not get away scott free with such insane comments.
Utah will rue the day they plopped this loser into their precious Senate seat.
Looks like he won't be doing anything productive - like solving the trans problem in sports for the Olympics...
Chuckle... says the gutless p*ssy who bent over and pulled a train for team obama.
Now we get to listen to THIS moron for the next few years.
Just what the hell does that have to do with Romney per se? There are renegades in every religion on the face of the Earth! I was raised a Mormon. I don’t believe in it, and haven’t for more than 50 years. That said, by and large Mormon people are among the most honest and ethical people you will find in this country. Utah is a very well-run state, not full of Liberal $hit like most of the rest. So why would you single them out for government abuse because of a couple of their members are bad guys? While you’re at it, how about going after all the rest of the churches because they most likely have some elected bad apples.
Mormons have earned in spades every bit of derision they get. Mormons support the open borders progressive division of the GOP that will be the death of this country. Romney, Mike Lee, Jeff Flake, Mia Love, etc. All bad apples. Period.
RINO and has always been a RINO...did not vote for the idiot (nor McCain) because of being a frakin’ RINO.
Romney slanders the 90% of Republicans who support Trump when he accepts the premise of “racist and sexist”. Trump is neither racist nor sexist and he wouldn’t have the support of the party rank and file if he were.
