Republican Sen. Mitt Romney is not keen on President Trump’s attacks on impeachment witnesses, but conceded that the insults are working.

“He has made a career of trashing people by tweet,” Romney, 72, told the New York Times.

“It is part of his shtick and it’s working for him,” the Utah senator said of Trump’s attacks on his former national security adviser John Bolton. “I think it’s unfortunate.”

What, did he hold up a bloody fake head of one of the witnesses by the hair and have a picture taken?

I wish I could unvote for Myth Dumbney in the 2012 election.

Pushing back against people who seek to do you harm isn’t “attacking”. It’s standing up for yourself.

Something that’s long overdue.

With all undue respect mittens————fah q.

What is it with this Jackass? What an utterly miserable, petty and vindictive human being. He had his shot at being President and blew it and now he hates Trump because he ran and won.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Yeah and if you were willing to do it you would have beaten Obama.

Of course....maybe you didn’t really WANT to beat Obama.

[nhbob1]

According to Schiff, he put them on pikes.

[blackdog]

This from the 43% oratory genius. What an a$$.

It’s standing up for yourself.

We're RINOs. We've never done that before.

President Trump has had to deal with Dems of the lowest caliber. Can you blame him? The Dems underestimated his strength....and if those tweets help him to maintain his strength...so be it.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Me to!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Conserv]

I lament the fact that I ever voted for that disgusting pr!ck.

“I wish I could unvote for Myth Dumbney in the 2012 election.”

Obama would win a magnificent landslide if there were a do over. Most of us would not vote. I’m glad Obama liked playing golf rather than appointing judges.

[Brian Griffin]

Bolton was fired by Trump.

Nothing Bolton could say that would be adverse to Trump is worthy of credence.

[Leep]

To bad Kobe’s helicopter pilot isn’t available to taxi a few dozen of our esteemed Senators over some mountains.

[TADSLOS]

I’d rather be attacked up front by a tweet than get stabbed in the back by a greasy sleazebag.

[Big Red Badger]

Mittens,
You Spinless
Piece of Crap,

[Steely Tom]

Of course....maybe you didn’t really WANT to beat Obama.

Romney wanted to beat Obama just as much as Marshal Pétain wanted to beat Hitler.
