Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told the Atlantic on Sunday that he believes the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry investigating President Donald Trump will serve as an “inflection point in American history.”
Atlantic staff writer McKay Coppins released an interview on Sunday detailing extended conversations with Romney regarding his views on the U.S. Senate, his attacks on President Trump, as well as his opinions on impeachment.
Coppins wrote that while most Republicans have backed the president amidst the impeachment inquiry, Romney continues to stay “open to the idea that the president may need to be evicted from the Oval Office.”
Sen. Romney said that he believes that the potential impeachment will serve as a critical juncture in American history.
“I do think people will view this as an inflection point in American history,” Romney said.
“I don’t look at myself as being a historical figure,” the failed 2012 Republican presidential candidate said. However, Romney adds, “I do think these are critical times. And I hope that what I’m doing will open the way for people to take a different path.”
Sen. Romney also suggested that Trump’s performance in office is directly linked to his character.
“Berating another person, or calling them names, or demeaning a class of people, not telling the truth—those are not private things,” Romney said. “If during the campaign you pay a porn star $130,000, that now comes into the public domain.”

George was a very good man
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have to disagree, he ran for President despite being born in Mexico.
One of the early attempts to gut the protections of the natural born citizen clause.
He has to stop endorsing Bush League Republicans.
He endorsed McCain, too.
Allah bless Baraq Hussein Obama for defeating Romney in 2012. It turned out to be good in the long run
Somebody give him a wedgie with his magic underwear.
A point like Lexington and Concord you mean?
I STILL believe he threw the election on purpose. . . so it’s his own damned fault he will never be President . . . but remind me to shake his putrid hand and thank him someday for sparing us the humiliation and anguish of electing a Rat stooge.
Romney is berating Trump, demeaning all of his supporters, and lies regularly. But hey, that's different because he's "moral".
