Mitt Romney Confirms He’s Still #NeverTrump, Won’t Endorse President’s Re-Election

Utah Senator and Republican golden boy of yesterday Mitt Romney confirmed Thursday that he won’t endorse any candidate in the 2020 presidential election.
Utah citizens hoping they’d have a Senator who would actually take a real stance in the upcoming election will be sorely dissapointed, as Mitt confirmed that he wasn’t planning on endorsing a candidate at all.
“I’m not planning on endorsing in the presidential race,” Romney told reporters from fake news network CNN at the Capitol. “At this stage, I’m not planning on endorsing in the primary or in the general.”
Romney has already accepted Donald Trump’s endorsement twice, once during his failed Presidential campaign against Barack Obama in 2012 and later during his easy-mode campaign for the U.S Senate in Utah. In between, he tried furiously to prevent Trump’s nomination, delivering a sanctimonious attack on the then-leading Republican candidate in 2016.
It’s ultimately unsurprising that Romney will passively sit on the sidelines during an election that could be among the most hard-fought and impactful in American history.
The country club Republican has always opposed America First principles, making hundreds of millions of dollars throughout his corporate career at Bain Capital by outsourcing middle-class American jobs and yanking American workers’ hard-earned benefits out from under their feet.
Romney has made no attempt to reform his stale political positions after losing a presidential campaign and falling far out of touch with Republican voters. Just earlier this week, he scolded President Trump for firing neocon warmonger John Bolton.
There’s a case to be made that it’d actually be preferable for Trump supporters to see the political establishmentarian take his place on the globalist left by endorsing a Democrat such as Pete Buttigieg or Beto O’Dourke, but Romney is likely aware of his unpopularity across the political spectrum. His endorsement would be nothing more than toxic dead weight in any candidate’s baggage.
