Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, continued the course of not supporting former President Trump during the 2024 election.
Last week, Trump had a closed-door meeting with Republican senators where he pitched a new policy position that could win over workers in key swing states ahead of the November election.
Romney attended the meeting, though he told CNN reporter Manu Raju on Tuesday that he did not go to support Trump.
"I didn't go there to support former President Trump. I went there to listen to what he was planning on doing if he became president," Romney told Raju.
Romney reportedly acknowledged he was not planning to attend the meeting, though he changed his mind after his flight was canceled.
"With President Trump, it’s a matter of personal character," the Utah senator said. "I draw a line and say when someone has been actually found to have been sexually assaulted, that’s something I just won’t cross over in the person I wouldn't want to have as president of the United States."
Romney was referring to a federal jury’s decision in New York City last year, which ruled Trump was not liable for the rape of E. Jean Carroll, though the former president was liable for sexual abuse and defamation.
Fox News Digital reached out to Romney’s team to verify the accuracy of the statements and was told, "That is what he said and has been saying this for months — it’s not new."

Mitt Romney is a perfect example of this.
No suprise. Mittens is a know loser.
Ironically, that’s precisely the reason Mitt would never again receive my vote.

There is no personal character in anyone that would permit a Biden reelection.
And Mittens, you have none at all.
