Romney Contests Trump’s Ukraine Election-Meddling Narrative: ‘I Saw No Evidence’
National Review ^ | December 3, 2019 | Tobias Hoonhout

Posted on 12/04/2019 4:40:03 PM PST by Trump20162020

Senator Mitt Romney of Utah broke with his Republican colleagues on Tuesday, telling reporters that, based on testimony from American officials, he does not believe there is evidence of Ukrainian interference in the 2016 election.

Romney’s comments come after U.S. Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs David Hale, the No. 3 State Department official, told a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing that he was not aware of any Ukraine meddling in the 2016 election.

“I saw no evidence from our intelligence community nor from our representatives today from the Department of State that there is any evidence of any kind that suggests Ukraine interfered in our elections,” Romney said Tuesday. He added that “we have ample evidence that Russia interfered in our elections.”

So, they didn’t show him where the Ukranians admitted they did?

Deputy AG Durham may yet put egg on Romney’s face, or Rudy Giulliani for that matter.

Witless Romney once cited his grand babies as the reason for his elitist throne of Supreme Integrity. He holds fast to that in his losing quest to be liked by the wrong people. In the process, those grand babies will suffer the humiliating collateral damage as they grow up, all because Wittless doesn’t know who he is or what he stands for.

Romney is one of them, the globalists who have been plotting to steal our country from us.

a stroll down memory lane, eh? In light of what we know now, Politico was surprisingly forthright:

I’m not sure if I’ve had a chance today to say “thank you” to Utah for putting Mitt Romney in the Senate.

(Actually I’m not sure if “thank” is the first word I want to use in that phrase.)

“I saw no evidence from our intelligence community..."

Of course not, because he doesn't have access to it!

Jackass. This lowlife caught the Hillary disease. He truly believes he was robbed of the Presidency and that he still might find a way.

If he does, he’ll do it without my vote.

He’s dirty and will vote to remove Trump giving the Rats their “bipartisan” vote. The big question is will Mitt and his little rino schemers team up with the rats and mess with the rules or get enough get enough never Trumpers to not participate so the Rats can get 2/3 doubtful but I don’t trust these bastards.
