Romney calls for nation to 'get behind' Biden
CNN ^ | Nov 8 | By Devan Cole and Veronica Stracqualursi

Posted on 11/08/2020 10:24:28 AM PST by RandFan

Republican Sen. Mitt Romney on Sunday called for the country to "get behind" President-elect Joe Biden and said he has seen no evidence of widespread voter fraud, even as President Donald Trump has pushed for election-related lawsuits and refused to concede the election.

"I think we get behind the new president, unless for some reason that's overturned, we get behind the new president and wish him the very best," Romney, who was the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."

While CNN and other networks projected Saturday that Biden will become the 46th President of the United States and Kamala Harris will become vice president, Trump has pushed his attorneys to pursue legal challenges that would delay formal certification of the results. And as his path to reelection narrowed, the President pushed baseless claims of voter fraud -- claims Romney cast doubt on Sunday.

"I do believe, however, that it's destructive to the cause of democracy to suggest widespread fraud or corruption. There's just no evidence of that at this stage. And I think it's important for us to recognize that the world is watching," Romney said.

this a**clown has no problem dropping on his knees and burying his face in Obama’s behind... in spite of what the Obama campaign, Harry Reid, and the MSM did to him in 2012.

It boggles the mind. He must be waist deep in the same kind of crap Biden and Hunter are. It’s the only thing that makes any kind of sense. Either that or it’s a case of butt hurt on an unprecedented level.

China got one helluva bargain buying off politicians. They come real cheap these days, it seems.

Can coffee clatches at the WH be far away? Old times are back again.

Nixon opened China , the Bushes coddled them, the Clintons sold ‘em technology, Obammy let ‘em spy away, and now waalaaa.. I give you MiTT and the Wall Climbers.

Romney was as vicious to Trump as Pelosi and the media. He is the last person to plead for unity.

I just thought I regretted my vote for Mittens.

These despicable fools, that fought Trump tooth and nail, when he was the legitimate winner, now kissing up to those that perpetrated fraud on a massive scale.

The Hill ^ | 07/11/20 09:23 AM EDT | BY JESSE BYRNES
GOP Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah) on Saturday sharply condemned President Trump’s commutation for longtime ally and political confidant Roger Stone, labeling it “historic corruption.” “Unprecedented, historic corruption: an American president commutes the sentence of a person convicted by a jury of lying to shield that very president,” Romney tweeted Saturday morning.Romney, a vocal Trump critic, was one of the first Republican lawmakers to weigh in on the president’s commutation for Stone, who was sentenced to more than three years in prison before the commutation. Stone was convicted last year of lying to Congress, witness tampering and obstruction of official proceeding....

He said no evidence there are videos, sworn statement, witnesses, and the numbers not adding up , plus the voting machines. He doesn;t need paying since he is a power hungry, swamp, elitist turd like so many in the country

I was under the impression Romney is against Trump because Romney is hiding something he doesn’t want people to find out about.
