Romney’s words and actions reveal his bitterness and treacherous nature
Unfortunately, the stab in the back always comes from someone close.
On Friday, seven Republican senators showed their true, treacherous nature and betrayed their party and the former President Trump.

Among them was Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, or the only senator in history to vote to convict a president of his own party two times.
He said:
“After careful consideration of the respective counsels’ arguments, I have concluded that President Trump is guilty of the charge made by the House of Representatives. President Trump attempted to corrupt the election by pressuring the Secretary of State of Georgia to falsify the election results in his state.
President Trump incited the insurrection against Congress by using the power of his office to summon his supporters to Washington on January 6th and urging them to march on the Capitol during the counting of electoral votes. He did this despite the obvious and well-known threats of violence that day. President Trump also violated his oath of office by failing to protect the Capitol, the Vice President, and others in the Capitol. Each and every one of these conclusions compel me to support a conviction.”
This is not the first time Romney displayed his disloyal personality.
During the first impeachment trial, the senator and former Republican nominee for president led the charge against President Trump.
Back then, he explained his reasons to impeach Trump in a speech in the Senate:
“The allegations made in the articles of impeachment are very serious. As a senator juror, I swore an oath before God to exercise impartial justice. I am profoundly religious, my faith is at the heart of who I am.
“I take an oath before God as enormously consequential. I knew from the outset that being tasked with judging the president, the leader of my own party, would be the most difficult decision I have ever faced. I was not wrong.”
Romney continued:
“The grave question the Constitution tasks Senators to answer is whether the president committed an act so extreme and egregious that it rises to a level of a high crime and misdemeanor. Yes, he did. The president asked a foreign government to investigate his political rival. The president withheld vital military funds from that government to press it to do so. The president delayed funds for an American ally at war with Russian invaders. The president’s purpose was personal and political. Accordingly, the president is guilty of appalling abuse of public trust. What he did was not perfect, no, it was a flagrant assault on our electoral rights, our national security, and our fundamental values.
“Corrupting an election to keep oneself in office is perhaps the most abusive and destruction violation of one’s oath of office that I can imagine. I acknowledge that my verdict will not remove the president from office.”
This is the true Romney, someone who would do anything to elevate himself.
A political opportunist, a bitter man, who is likely still smarting from his defeat to former President Obama in the 2012 presidential election.
He belongs to the old guard, and he probably didn’t find it easy to accept the fact that someone new in politics, a businessman, Donald Trump, did what he could not do and attain the presidency.
He cannot get past the fact that the new Republican Party, led by former President Trump, is proud to be conservative, and does not make compromises with those who want to destroy and sell America to the highest bidder.
