Called A ‘Traitor’ By Trump Supporters, Romney Says President ‘Disrespected’ Voters

Sen. Mitt Romney was called a “joke” and a “traitor” by supporters of President Trump in videos that went viral Tuesday.

But on Wednesday, the Utah Republican directed stronger words at Trump and others in the GOP who falsely suggest the presidential election results were illegitimate.

“I think that the gambit that we are seeing today — very disappointing,” Romney told Capitol Hill reporters about many Republican lawmakers’ planned objections to the election results. “President Trump has disrespected the American voters, has dishonored the election system and has disgraced the office of the presidency.”
