Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) has made it crystal clear that he won’t vote for Donald Trump if Trump becomes the Republican nominee in the upcoming presidential election. Romney expressed his views during an interview on Wednesday’s edition of The Source with Kaitlan Collins.
When asked about Nikki Haley’s assertion that Trump couldn’t defeat President Joe Biden, Romney didn’t fully agree, calling it a “good campaign line.” He acknowledged that Trump could win and criticized Biden’s handling of border security and immigration, describing it as “embarrassing” and citing “extraordinary mistakes.”
However, when Collins directly asked if he would choose Trump over Biden, Romney firmly responded with a resounding “No, no, no, absolutely not.” He explained that his decision revolves around two factors: policy alignment and character.
While he aligns with some of Trump’s domestic policies, he expressed concerns about Trump’s foreign policy. More importantly, Romney emphasized the significance of a president’s character and how it influences the nation’s character, highlighting the impact a president with a lack of character could have on America.
Romney’s stance underscores the complex considerations voters weigh beyond policy positions, emphasizing the importance of both policy alignment and character in choosing a leader for the country.
