POLITICS‘ABSOLUTELY NOT’: Romney Rules Out Supporting Trump In 2024

Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will break from the GOP if Donald Trump is the nominee in 2024

Sen. Mitt Romney has unequivocally ruled out supporting 45th President Donald Trump’s third bid for the White House, even if the former president secures the Republican Party’s nomination.

The establishment U.S. Senator from Utah, who once sought Trump’s support in his failed bid failed to oust 44th President Barack Obama from the White House in 2012, made the remarks during a climate change event in Washington, D.C.

“Absolutely not,” Romney said, according to The Washington Examiner. He then touted his impeachment record, telling attendees, “Look, I voted to remove him from office twice.”

Claiming that “he loses,” Romney added that Trump is “not a person who ought to have the reigns of the government of the United States.”

Despite his refusal to support Trump – potentially abandoning the Republican Party’s presidential ticket come November of 2024 – Romney acknowledged the low odds that another candidate could win against him, the outlet noted.

Watch the clip on Spreely.video:


Trump continues to dominate most polls of Republican primary voters, though one poll taken immediately after the party’s mediocre midterm performance showed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis beating Trump.

Virtually all polls taken since Trump formally announced his candidacy, however, have showed the 76-year-old ahead by overwhelming margins.

Though Romney has positioned himself as a staunch public enemy of Trump, he nevertheless keeps company with many of Trump’s supposed allies.

In September, I reported that Romney was part of a group of senators – led by Trump ally Sen. Lindsey Graham – who sought to reverse the former president’s promise to pardon the January 6 prisoners if reelected in 2024.

January 6 “was an attack on the temple of Democracy,” declared Romney, before asserting that the January 6 defendants “should be prosecuted according to the law, and certainly not pardoned.”

Romney characterized Trump’s promise as “a grossly inappropriate comment to make.”

No surprise here.

1) Romney wasn’t at the 2016 Republican Convention because he’s a sucker & a loser.

2) Romney became the first Senator to vote to convict a President of his own party, during impeachment farce # one.

3) Romney voted to convict President Trump during impeachment farce # two.

4) Romney during the 2012 Presidential campaign ‘threw’ the election to the Mulatto Messiah.(Mitt does what he’s told when the deep state calls)

5) Romney is a duplicitous asshole that has the loyalty of Judas.

6) A dead possum on the road has a more viable political future than Romney does moving forward.

7) Why don’t the democrats ever have traitors like Romney during their scandals?

Pierre Delecti is a product of the deepest, most putrid slime of the swampiest RINOs and poseurs that the GOPe ever produced. He needs to slink off the stage along with the Cheneys and the Bush-McNoName sector of the GOPe.

He may be irrelevant but if his niece stays at the head of the RNC she can cause way more damage than Romney. I’d hope that Freepers are notifying their state RNC reps to vote Ronna McDaniel out.

Not widely known——Romney, Jack Ryan and Pence like to wear the same lacy underwear.

The same pair.

At the same time.

Thankfully

That would look bad for Trump to be endorsed by a traitor

Mitt lost his marbles when obama beat him in a fraudulent election. At least he hasn’t claimed to be brainwashed by the ultra MAGA. That would imply that his mental illness is hereditary.

This foolishness of “they are really Democrats in disguise” has to stop.

The imaginary GOP these people keep talking about does not exist, The REAL GOP, unfortunately, does exist.
