Sen. Mitt Romney said former President Donald Trump represents a"failure of character" for the party, as the ongoing senator discussed conversations among Senate Republicans.
The Utah senator, who announced in September that he will not seek another term, is quoted in an upcoming biography, Romney: A Reckoning by McKay Coppins, that"a very large portion of my party really doesn't believe in the Constitution." In his statement announcing his retirement, Romney took aim at both Trump and President Joe Biden, stating both are unable or unwilling to address the nation’s leading problems.
"It's like, 'Wait a second: This is the leader of our party saying we should put aside the Constitution? How can you believe you're following the Constitution if that's the case?'" Romney said on Sunday. "I do get death threats. And her feeling was I would not be safe, and I shouldn't go," Romney said about his wife's concerns on Jan. 6."And I said, 'Well, this is a constitutional moment. This is a time when I have to be there.'"
