January 1, Romney Resists Trump’s 2024 Ambitions, Cites Character Concerns after Private Meeting

Published

on

Senator Mitt Romney, R-Utah, remains unsupportive of former President Trump’s potential 2024 run. This comes even after attending a recent private meeting with Trump and other Republican senators. Romney clarified his intentions, stating, “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.”

The closed-door meeting aimed to present Trump’s new policy positions for workers in crucial swing states. Initially not planning to attend, Romney revised his plans due to a canceled flight.

Romney’s resistance stems from character concerns. He said, “With President Trump, it’s a matter of personal character.” Romney added, “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 refers to the E. Jean Carroll case, in which Trump was held accountable for sexual abuse and defamation but not liable for rape. Carroll claimed Trump sexually assaulted her in 1996 in a Manhattan department store.

The defamation lawsuit against Trump resulted from his denial, which Carroll argued harmed her reputation. The jury agreed, ruling in her favor and determining that Trump’s controversial statements in June 2019 during his presidency damaged her.

A representative for Romney confirmed the senator’s sentiments, stating, “That is what he said and has been saying this for months — it’s not new.”

The Trump campaign has not immediately responded to Romney’s position. In the E. Jean Carroll case, the jury awarded $83.3 million, including $65 million in punitive damages and $18.3 million for reputational repair and compensatory damages.

Romney remains firm in his stance, consistently voicing concerns regarding Trump’s personal character. The unfolding political dynamic in the coming months will be fascinating to watch.

    Why does anyone care what the pos Romney has to say? We all know he is a complete sellout to the country and his DC Establishment puppet strings are totally exposed so the show is over for him. Romney=Textbook RINO

    Well of course he hates Trump … Trump loves his Country, wants it to thrive and has a Pair of Balls, as opposed to the RINO Romney who hates us and our Country, thinks only he should thrive and wears a pair of Panties ( probably a gift from his friend Dylan Mulvaney )

    Romney is a hypocrite. He says he’s there to listen to policy remarks but blast his character. He brings the crazy lady from 1996 who “claims” she was sexually assaulted. Knowing full well 83 million is what she really wanted. Probably wanted DT too.

      Still bitter because he talked about DJT like he was a reptile, then, after Trump won, Romney crawled to Trump Towers begging for an Ambassadorship. Trump was gracious and listened to his B.S. and said No Thanks.Bitter. nasty, snake. Hell even the Mormon Church who got him elected to be a Senator want no part of him. Sucked as a Governor in Massachusetts, as Democrat, failed at run for POTUS as s Republican, failed as a Senator, no one on the Right speaks to him I believe since he knifed DJT in the back when he was POTUS and since, except the useful idiots Liz Cheney and and her ilk on the January 6th Kangaroo panel. Guess he will be an Independent next. .

    We really should not care what Romney thinks since he is just jealous as his reputation as a Rino is very obvious. He has never done anything to help the republican party. We need to win this election and he will not help in any way!!!! He should retire and let someone else represent the people from his state!!!

    I don’t know why anyone listens to Romney. He flip flops from party to party and couldn’t even debate against Obama when running for president.

    I tried of Romney’s bs. He couldn’t get across the line a win the presidency. So it’s all Sour grapes. He will find any reason not to support Trump.

      Romney makes a lot of sense. Little dick Donald is NOW A COVICTED FELON. How can someone that is a convicted felon even be Allowed to run for President. He can NEVER BE ABLE TO GET A SECURITY CLEARANCE EVER AGAIN…. ALL HIS maga followers are Idiots, and that is a Fact and FACTS DON’T LIE…..AND THAT’S ALL THE orange idiot does…FACT!!!!!!!

        And being an idiot is something you well know about, isn’t it? Maga followers are idiots? how about the Biden jelly beans (such as you)? No, I am not a Republican’t nor a Democrap. I deliberately registered as an Independent voter because of so called experts on BOTH sides, the ones like you. So how do you know about the size of his penis? Had personal experience with it? Enough of this stupidity.

        Romney is a fence sitting RHINO! He has no more qualified than a drunk donkey to be in politics. Claim to be so Climate
        Efficient yet flyes all over the world spouting clean energy in ineffient jet polluting the environment. He wouldn’t be Jack Sh__ without his wife’s money.

          Well, Northern Utah has been purple since Romney blew into town . Cox is no better, claims “why can’t we all just get along” than claims victory the night of the current election in June and ALL of the ballots in southern Utah weren’t counted (so much for mail in voting 🤡) He called his opponent “The other side” who is also a Republican.
          Cox loves Romney who has turned northern Utah into his own MAWN (Make America Worst Now) Cox is allowing ILLEGAL immigrates to stay and providing services paid by the LEGAL tax payers. Now he’s pals with the California Governor who has ran his state into the ground.
          This is the new pandemic……..

      Romney is one sick puppy, it didn’t bother him to rape and pillage companies when he was driving the Bain Capital bus. His policies destroyed peoples lives and he take Umbridge about disputed bogus clams made by a nutjob. Who would assault her in a Bergdorf Goodman changing room. Romney will hang on any stupid claim by any fool.

    Romney is just like Hillary can’t stand that Trump is so famous and America wants him as president again.
    Americans hate those two assholes always crying and shooting their big mouths off all the time. They never get the hint Americans are
    Sick and tired of them stabbing everyone in the back. Just shut your pie hole and go away.

      No he isn’t. Every person working that day, and it was a busy day, denied hearing anything. The workers were in the rooms cleaning up and bringing more people in the changing rooms. Always ask the workers. Not a one of them heard a scream or any commotion. So that was all done in silence, I don’t think it ever happened.

    Romney, the pretty boy wimp and Gavin Newsom pre-courser, says in effect that Trump is a loser. He must be looking in a mirror.

    Romney support Trump, are you kidding. If he did he’d be the only one from the far left. He was probably looking for a cabinet spot but there isn’t one for a sewer sweep. Bet his father is turning in the grave over this loser.

    Romney is a jealous loser who could never fill Trumps shoes. Everyone knows the alleged sexual assault was a bogus drummed up charge. I’d be more worried about the dog killer Romney than Trump.

    WoW! What a surprise! Romney not supporting the Republican nominee for President. Actually, he has offered the greatest support he can by getting out of the Senate where he has consistently submarined all conservative proposals. Thank you Me. Ex- Senator!

      Knowing that he is mentally incompetent and Harris is worse you might want to rethink that. Romneys own Mormon church won’t even vote for hi,. and harris Father won’t for her Since the Biden (Obama)Admin has us in a a failed state, 3 wars going world wide, an hated world wie, I can see why you would want to vote for them

    Romney should switch over to be a Democrat because
    He is certainly not a Republican. He is a snake in the
    Grass! I old not vote for him if hell froze over

  21. David John Porter

    How many wives did your granddad have Mitt? Fifteen, twenty, twenty five? Donald trump is an alter boy compared to you and your family. Also, he won at least one election for president and will win another this year. So Mitt-do the honest and honorable thing and become a Democrat. Your dad was a loser and so are you.

    Mitt Romney. What a dirtbag. He somehow thinks that he is somehow better than the rest of us. Actually, I think he’s just a gifted, not unlike the folks currently in power at the White House.

  24. Jimbo

    July 5, 2024 at 2:39 pm

    Sorry for spell check. My thoughts on Romney are that he’s just another grifter. He moves from place to place so he can run for open offices. Likely never worked a day in his life.

    Who cares what Romney Thinks! Amazing how fast he deems Trump guilty of sexual assaults when a jury acquitted him of such. It is simply her word. Who BTW could not remember when, to Trump’s. Romney has been a BIG disappointment !

    Romney crawls on his belly. He crawled to Trump Tower in 2016 wanting DJT to give him an Ambassadorship, AFTER h eknifed Trump in the back. Trump sai “Your Fired”,Romney has been a bitter Ahole. ever since He isn’t running again in Utah because hws how bad his numbers are. He has been a Dem, a Rhino, guess the Green Party i th next stop.He can join the Squad.

    I once supported Romney until he opened his mouth and I discovered who he really was/is. He is a bitter man who is still suffering from his loss to Obama. His hatred for Trump is based on jealosy. Go away, Mitt.

    Jealousy and hate is all Romney has. If the press did any investigating of him and his kid they would see how American politicians and their kids make millions off their position in “our” government.

    THIS is what the American people are up against…Marxist-RINOS to the right and Marxist-Liberal-Democrats to the left and Trump fighting to keep at the very least, a sense of “Constitution” in the minds of everyone.

    Perhaps we are choosing from two evils. Romney is the judge of Trump and letting this nation go down the drain by choosing the lesser of two evils. The Democratic party can ruin this nation, and Romney stands firm on his convictions because a person had an affair. Romney, Let God do the judging and impose the penalty. Your job is to protect this nation’s freedom and support what party and that person who will preserves this nations liberty and freedoms.

    Romney who is more interested in being failed politician than staying home and spending time with his sick wife. Romney who is such a turncoat his Church won’t vote for him. I am ashamed to say I worked the phones for hm when he ran against Obama, and voted for him. Not because I thought he was a true Conservative, but, because I knew Obama was the worst thing that could happen to this country.I was so correct. amd he is still running he W.H.
