Speaker 1: Mitt Romney was asked the other day, will you vote for Trump if he's the 2024
Republican nominee?
This is an interesting question because there are many Republicans who are starting to say
things like, I would rather a different nominee.
I would prefer that we just nominate someone different and that it not be up to me to decide
on Election Day.
Do I vote for Trump or not?
Let's just pick a different nominee.
Mitt Romney is speaking with a clarity that many Republicans are not speaking with.
Now, this is not a look at how great Mitt Romney is story.
This is a look at how low the bar is story.
Mitt Romney is clearly saying I would not support Trump even if he were the nominee
in 2024.
Speaker 3: It's going to be hard to knock him off as our nominee.
If he became a nominee, I think he loses again.
Speaker 4: And would you support him if he's the nominee?
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
And I mean, I get asked that.
I mean.
Speaker 2: Look.
Speaker 3: I voted to remove him from office twice, so.
Speaker 4: I knew what your answer is going to be had I had.
Speaker 3: But the answer is and it's not just because he he loses.
I mean, that's that's my reason that I offer to other people who are big fans of his.
But but it's also he's he's simply not a person who ought to have the reigns of the government,
the United States.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Very, very clear.
Romney says it's not just about I'd rather a different nominee.
If he's the nominee, I'm not voting for him.
Compare and contrast this with some of the more spineless people in the Republican Party.
William Barr.
William Barr, one of Trump's former attorney generals attorneys general, said this guy
was a threat to democracy, all these horrible, horrible things.
But I don't know.
I mean, if he's a Democrat, I might still have to vote for him.
Listen to this.
Speaker 5: Well, I certainly have made it clear I don't think he should be our nominee.
And I'm going to, you know, support somebody else for the nominee.
Speaker 4: But if he is the nominee and you have your choices, Donald Trump or whoever
is running on the Democratic side, would you vote for him?
Speaker 5: Because I believe that the greatest threat to the country is the progressive agenda
being pushed by the Democratic Party.
It's inconceivable to me that I wouldn't vote for the Republican nominee.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Threat to democracy.
Dangerous.
No business has no clue what's going on.
But I mean a savannah, please.
A Democrat.
I'm not going to vote for a Democrat.
That would be even worse.
And then Mitch McConnell, even who Trump has called his wife, I don't remember if Trump
called his wife ugly, but he certainly called her different names, has attacked him as a
rhino just up and down, slamming McConnell.
Even McConnell, what was it, ten days ago when he was asked?
He played coy with it and didn't rule it out.
Speaker 2: In light of what you said, that there's no room in your party for anyone who
covers these, I submit to you, if Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination, would you
support him?
Speaker 6: Look, let me just say again, there is simply no room in the Republican Party
for anti-Semitism or white supremacy, and that would apply to all of the leaders in
the party who will be seeking office.
Speaker 1: There you go.
So even Mitch McConnell not ruling it out, the bar is very low.
And Mitt Romney has exceeded that bar.
