Romney: 'Stunning' for White House not to respond on Russian cyberattack
The Hill ^ | December 17, 2020 | Kaelen Deese

Posted on 12/18/2020 3:05:13 AM PST by Stravinsky

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Thursday said it was "stunning" for the White House to not issue a response regarding multiple alleged U.S. government cyber attacks stemming from Russia.

The senator from Utah tweeted an abbreviated version of the statement he told SiriusXM’s Chief Washington Correspondent Olivier Knox in a prerecorded interview, noting the recent reports of Russian hacks into government agencies showed "alarming U.S. vulnerability" and "apparent cyber warfare weakness."

“I think the White House needs to say something aggressive about what happened. This is almost as if you had a Russian bomber flying undetected over the country, including over the nation's capital, and not to respond in a setting like that is really stunning," Romney told Knox.

Probably because he’s more comfortable talking about Russia as opposed to the Ukraine...

Hint. Probably ain’t Russia. Most real attacks come from Communist China

Uh...because it’s really smart to let everyone know what you are going to do.

Mormons should not only vote this moron out of office, they should toss his butt out of the church. He brings shame on them.

Leave it up to Romney to flap his jaws more often now he thinks the Demorats are going to be in charge. He’s such a disgusting excuse for a worm of a man let alone a politician.

The fact that China will not be mocked or criticized makes it clear who is in control.
If it really had been Russia, the noise would have started before it became public knowledge

Wait, didn’t some rat just testify there were NO hacks on election infrastructure.

Come on Romney, you need to check the liberal talking points before opening your dirty pie hole. Pos

Now starts the brainwashing of Americans, telling us the “hacking” came from Russia. How many knuckle dragging morons will question this?

“needs to say something aggressive” -— So only if Russia, not China, supposedly does something, Trump should blast the enemy with a scolding?

Trump fired Chris Krebs the Cyber Security Chief. It was Krebs that should have known the cyber attack was going on because it was his job but either didn’t know about it or did and failed to act.
