Romney is only moderate and decent compared with 95% of his R colleagues who are now so anti-truth and anti-democracy that they have become a despicable swamp gang, not a legitimate, principled political organization. Where was this supposedly courageous and honest Romney while trump was wrecking our democracy and further dividing the nation? Romney was silent, voting largely with trump's position again and again as he went along to get along. Did he speak out forcefully about the numerous offenses committed by trump or the moral bankruptcy of his party as it became a cesspool of dishonesty, corruption, cowardice and authoritarian sentiments? Now that he's retiring, he finally speaks up about stuff that he abided in silence, hidden from the public for years. Where have we heard that before?
Romney just needs to go away. He will never have the charisma Trump has. He just likes to criticize Trump. That way he can sell his book.
Well its election time so CNN has to feed their sheep plenty of lies so they dont get their feeling hurt to throw shade on the fact that the orange man is kicking ass in the polls đ.

@cnn, the captions on this video are really bad, even for auto-generated captions – just useless
Oh, I see. A reckoning. More likely just a (w)reck.
Hon. Mitt Romney: the last good Republican.
Jake, you refer to Romney as "Republican royalty." This is a typical misuse of words by a media framer, even one I kind of like. We have a hereditary money aristocracy, but do not have "royalty." Please use a less historically charged word.
Ya, ok, Romney is still looking for the prophet on the white horse and making Mormonism the heroic religion that saves the United States.
Make no mistake, the values of the neocons of 20 years ago aided the situation now. Romney, Bush, Cheney and others presented views that eventually evolved into the situation that shaped Trump. They are responsible.
You know something?
I really hate thst picture of Romney.
It's like a flash glimpse of his inner self.
One party is accusing another of doing similar things. Dysfunctional U.S.A family.
Romney is a traitors, đ¤Ľ
They know he's a liar, a cheat, a fraud, and many other forms of low life. Even though they know, he's still useful idiot who enables their agenda. He's the one that enabled a super majority on the Supreme Court. He's the one who fed a steady supply of ultra conservative lunatics of the federal bench. He's the one who enabled trillions in tax cuts for their benefactors. They know, but they don't care
Romney is chicken to run again he's toast he knows he can not win in Utah again, he doesn't wanto look stupid for running like Liz Cheney, Utah deserves so much better than Romney.
Stupid cnn propaganda…whos paying you
Romney is one bitter loser! Instead supporting Trump for winning over evil Hillary he continually under mined Trump. He is so envious of Trump for having a successful presidency!
Romney should run as a democrat. The dems need more experienced conservative voices in their ranks to shift the party more to the middle again.
I thought Mitch McConnell was catatonic.đđ
What happened to the GOP, what happened to the Christian voters, they will choose Trump as their running
candidate for the Pesidency. They will vote for a Dictator and an evil man.
Romney really needs to run, we need a choice, t-rump is not a choice and I would never waste my vote on that.
Look at his credibility what do you expect from this RINO.
Who can ever forget seeing Josh Hawley on video running for his life? â¤â¤GOD Bless Uâ¤â¤

Cowards. All of the GOP members should ban together and fight against Trump.
Mitt's family is doing okay. Liz Cheney is doing okay, Adam Kipzinger is doing okay. They will be okay, especially if they come together and help to ouht Trump in prison. I swear, Liz Cheney has more balls than these Republican Congressmen
Once again, this class of people who choose to remain silent during critical moments in American History. Then after their (Mille, Bolton, Comey) books are released, we discover they knew more. They should be criticized instead of on best seller lists. Being oblivious to the concers of American people in public service should be at the very least? An ethics crime.
Why is nobody asking what trump is holding over the heads of all these people?
I dunno. IF some of those GOP members were honest when they said they were afraid for their families if they voted for impeachment, then I can accept that as an excuse. Keep in mind, I'm saying "IF" as a caveat. IF they truly felt that. And honestly, looking at the behavior of ardent Trumpers and the rhetoric they use, I can see how that was a real fear. It's easy for third parties to look from the outside and say "that's not a good reason you have to do the right thing!" when it's not YOUR family. And no matter how much you may hate all Republicans, no matter how good of a reason you may have to do so, they still have families just like you do.
Note that this should not be construed as a defense for the likes of Boebert or MTG or that Florida moron who should be in jail for rape. I think it goes without saying they supported Trump out of genuine affection for the lunatic…
I suppose Manchin is democrat party Royalty?
The comparison is similar, as the democrat rank and file have about the same feelings towards Manchin as Republicans have toward Romney.
The media love Romney unless he is running for president then they absolutely lambast and lie about him, because he doesn't fight back.
Traitor 45 loyalists condemn Romney immaturely with calling him a rhino, I say Romney is loyal to the constitution/constitution not a traitor! Not a rhino but an American patriot! đŻ
Uhmmm…. being smarter than ted Cancun cruz is not really something to brag about… He's about as smart as a stale piece of chewed out bubble gum… đ¤Ś
We republicans hate "royalty",he was going to lose,McConnell,Cornyn,Romney three of many despised politicians.
At this point I don't think there's much McConnell remembers…. More freezing episodes coming folk,s him and that other relic feinstein have no place in government.
The entire Demonrat party are Communists and people are worried about the low T GOP?! Unreal…
If you want to keep a secret DO NOT tell Mitt Romney….lol
2:29 Nice lie, CNN. It's the SPEAKER that is in charge of security, not the President.
The book should be called, "Romney: A Rino."
stop listening SNN !!!!
đ Romney isnât running because he would never ever win again in Utah
Romney is not Republican royalty….he is just the beginning of the base bringing accountability for continuous betrayal by lying politicians we have elected.
Romney , You're a good đ đ đ âĽď¸. Those who follow Trump are loser. May God bless, sir.
