Washington is already taking sides in the battle between President Trump and incoming Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, with Trump ally Sen. Rand Paul slamming the 2012 GOP presidential nominee.
Paul tweeted that Romney is a Big Government Republican and faux conservative.
In reacting to Romneys attack in the Washington Post on Trump, Paul also made clear that he does not think Romney, who is still to be sworn in as a new senator, has any affinity for former President Reagan.
Paul tweeted this morning, Like other Big Government Republicans who never liked Reagan, Mitt Romney wants to signal how virtuous he is in comparison to the President. Well, Im most concerned and pleased with the actual conservative reform agenda @realDonaldTrump has achieved.

Thank you Utah, you did a great job...
Thanks to anti-Trump zombie rombie for making it a choice between a President who is looking out for America and someone who doesn’t even know which party he belongs.
Rand Paul should replace Mike Pence in 2020.
He’s got a lock on the GOP for 2024.
The entire Republican Senate, all GOP senators should sign an open letter to Mitt telling him he can caucus with the Dems if he wants to be a pathetic loser and they should do this TODAY so Mitt knows where he stands.
Don’t give Romney ANY committee assignments. Let him sit on the back bench.
Romney/Ryan ... what a team! The deep state duo!
Never thought I’d be saying this, but:
I could vote for Rand Paul as a successor to President Trump.
He is feisty, bold, articulate and I generally agree with him. However, there have been occasions when I don’t.
I’ll wait to see.
I believe ol Romney is going to try and find a way to run in 2020.
There are effective conservatives and then of course those who are not who just take up space.
Good he spoke out,.....but the GOPS who are supporting Trump need to get their act together and do this far more often. The mids are past so no excuse accepted.
I think Romney was the leader of the anti-Trumpers in the GoP from the get go....it was just a matter of getting elected Senator....like a snake e slithered into Utah.
They either stand now as Republicans supporting President Trump or they get labeled Demorat enablers.
I think Trump should now refer to him as the Junior Senator from Utah. Will the Junior Senator from Utah please refrain from speaking?
I hope he gets to chair the sub committee on fecal matter...
Who after Trump? Right now, Paul is the most likely.
I think Trump should now refer to him as the Junior Senator from Utah.
Freshman senator.
As Lincoln supposedly said, when asked if one of his rivals for the 1860 nomination would run again,..... "Once the presidential bug bites you, it never lets go,"....So the only thing that will stop Willard is universal bipartisan recognition of what a spineless, lying piece of work he is..
So always know that when Utah politicians speak of Utah values, they mean Mormon values.
Doubt it, like his father he can only go just so far.
Exactly..........I ‘expect’ the party fractures....it can be no other way. Let the earth shake beneath them!
Well that’s pretty much it!
