On election night last November, Sen. Mitt Romney watched the early returns and developed "a pit in his stomach" at then-President Donald Trump's strong performance in early states, an excerpt from a forthcoming book by Washington Post reporters Carol D. Leonnig and Philip Rucker said.

In fact, the numbers were "surprisingly good" for Trump, with now-President Joe Biden underperforming in Florida's Miami-Dade County, where Democratic presidential nominees need to perform strongly in order to capture the populous swing state.

That night, Romney told his family that Trump would be victorious in the presidential election, the excerpt from "I Alone Can Fix It: Donald J. Trump's Catastrophic Final Year" said.

"I think he's going to win," Romney said in the book. "Those polls were way off. I think he's going to pull it out."

Nutless wonder. Disgusting excuse of a man. No amount of wealth or business deals makes you a great man, or even a decent one.

Maybe he ate a bad burrito.

I hope he had the shits on election night, and still has them.

Tied a knot in his magic underwear. Guess team LIEden didn’t tell him not to worry.

Biden didn’t win any of the bellweather locations and didn’t have the “same” late night bump nationally, just in the states where counting was mysteriously stopped (but they did not stop counting, only stopped REPORTING) until Biden “won”.

He did, until the Uniparty stole the election for Joe BiteMe.

Romney didn’t even want ROMNEY to win.

Yes,but in that same pit he knew that his Maoist pals in Atlanta,Philadelphia,Detroit,Milwaukee and Phoenix would be able to come up with *just* enough fraudulent mail in ballots to pull it out.

And Trump was gracious enough the endorse that ungrateful $hit stain Mormon.
