It's insane to me that people are upset over student loan forgiveness but not the tax breaks for the rich. This country is so stupid
Voting against our own self interest since 1980 🤦♀️
Spot on. Nor a basic health care especially for the obese South.
Romney is up to something!
Biden did nothing to the rich like he said he would. Zero!! That was his campaign promise and they are not even taxed heavily like promised.
@@mgsschuback1004Let's leave conspiracies to the crazy right wingers. And keep in mind, tho not a crazy MAGA, Romney IS a Republican.
Romney is a rich Republican and thinks some privileged people should just get away with everything
The same guy who believes poor people needing shelter, food and healthcare feel entitled.
I think you can nix 'some' from your comment.
RINO James, not at all a republican...
Bingo
@@markhartung he’s %100 a Republican. Any Democrat would understand the danger of pardoning Trump
This statement from Romney is Beyond shocking!!
There is a reason I say "trust no Republican."
No is not, very common republican politician
Question for Mitt Romney: If someone broke into one of your children's homes and assaulted them and you were President, would you pardon them? Ya know, just to be "the bigger guy"?
he is not speaking out of justice, he speaking as a political move
@jackjames7283 Which is why it's an attack on democracy as well as justice. The rule of law is a central pillar of democracy and it means the judicial branch must work independently from the legislative and executive branches. In other words, political interference in the justice system is anti-democratic and a slippery slope to kangaroo courts in banana republics.
Romney makes no sense. At all. In any way.
He will. always be in the good old boys evil club
Of course not. He's a Mormon, after all.
He makes a lot of sense. It's his clarion call to signal that he's still a republican.
Enough of the chaos already! Mr Romney, just shut up!
Bingo. He is a shortsighted fool. Trying to fool the country with his twaddle.
How does a former governor and current U.S. Senator not know that presidents cannot pardon state crimes?
Good point. Maybe he just got confused because of all the various cases against dt, that perhaps he just mixed it up with the federal cases.
Romney knows, which is why he said Biden should have "pressured" Bragg. I still have a hard time with Romney saying treason is no big deal.
I suppose Romney was implying that Biden should pardon Trump for all of the crimes, indictments, felonies that are federal...and coerce the state authorities to drop their investigations as well. I usually can find common cause with Romney but he just went of the rails. The problem isn't that Joe Biden is enabling Trump to become even more popular with Republicans. It's that Republicans have zero courage to fix/course correct their party...and to tell their constituents the actual truth. Romney has tried to do this. But honestly, his party along with Mitch failed miserably to hold Trump accountable when he was impeached. Mitch could have removed Trump from the equation. But instead GOP leaders refused ...they lacked the courage and integrity. Romney was one of a tiny sliver of repubicans who voted to remove Trump. So don't keep blaming Democrats for Trump manipulating the media and manipulating the Republican leadership. That's on them. But we should all agree that no one is above the law....ESPECIALLY THE PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES!
That's what I asked! The panel is obviously unaware of that,and so is Romney!
"Trump faces four criminal charges of conspiring to defraud the government and disenfranchise voters, and corruptly obstructing an official proceeding. [2] This case includes Trump's involvement in the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack." Wikipedia. The documents case is federal and the election interference case, the other two are state. Let's hope he knows the difference. The state cases are why Trump wants the immunity from the Supreme Court. They seemed to be talking about the federal cases to me.
You want to pardon a habitual criminal..🤔
Seriously 😮
Yes, because that would make Biden the "bigger guy" and it would make t#### the "smaller guy". Really?!?! *THAT* is Romney's reasoning as to *WHY* t#### should get away with this? I thought Romney was one of the "voices of reason" within the Republican party. Apparently, no longer.
@priscillamoore5736 did I not say habitual..he has been getting away with crimes far to long...
Will find out when Joe Dirt is on trial.
@@richarddixon4303 you all are still clinging...🙃🙂🫠GO..JOE..😁😉😄
I don't think we should take advise from someone who is jumping the ship....
If Trump goes unpunished there is no reason for any person to abide by the law, ever again.
Not even paying parking tickets.
Absolutely totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙
If that's the case, Biden can refuse to leave office if he loses. He can issue the military to stop Trump & everyone else & pay no consequences for doing that! He's a coward, just like the rest of the Republicans!
well not "ANY person".
There is no justice since Biden got in. He has put Americans in danger with his policies especially with the border. So do you daily you arrogant snobs. Not that you care. You cover up for Biden and his crimes and the crimes of his family. You overlook all his lies. God Biden has split this country. Then I figure you are just like him. Corrupt.
Well, unfortunately, the little people would be dragged into prison cells.
The president doesn’t control NYC. Sorry Mitt.
Or Georgia.
Its someone from the biden DOJ in charge of the NY case. Its going to blow up when the jury ends up being hung on the NY case.
That is not accurate. The president does not but the party does. If the powers that be say end this they would end it. These are elected people who are owned by the party so they can be in those positions of power.
@@middle_of_the_road
LBJ might have wielded that kind of muscle but no one since then ....
Lots of democrats have built a strong local following by proving that they do NOT toe the party line ....
A good example right now is Senator Jon Tester in Montana .... I'm a LeftyL00nyL!bt@rd myself and disagree with some of his centrist positions but I definitely respect him and have to consider that on some of those issues he might be right and I might be wrong ...
No MSNBC does. They lied about Trump everyday and that my fried is not Democracy, too brainwash people before the trial is over
Romney is wrong on this BIG TIME!!!
He is wrong, but I think it's like Joe said: Romney thinks he's being a peace broker, above the fray, by saying this. But it contradicts his own vote to convict Trump. Republicans like Mitch McConnell said "we don't need to convict him here because the courts can do it." Of course now they say, "well he was already impeached and so the courts shouldn't be taking this up." It's a stupid game, but one that Romney was smart to avoid until now. I don't know why he thinks he needs influence within the party, since he is retiring. So, he's kind of muddying his legacy here.
After seeing Romney say this I have lost any respect for him
Thankfully, we'll never have President Romney.
We dodged a bullet on that one, for sure.
Truth hurts I guess
@@clayoreilly4553truth hurts I guess
Or Biden again.......
yeah he has no idea he's giving the perfect example of why he's totally unqualified. he literally says that he would unconstitutionally violate separate powers because "it makes me the big guy!"
I don't care for very many Republicans, but I used to think Romney was fairly decent , but now I have lost ALL respect for him😡
Me too
I keep saying this and they keep proving it to be true, "There are NO good Republicans left."
There are NO good Republicans still in office.
We all figured he would denounce him but still vote for him.
Same
A pardon would have made Federal charges go away but not the state charges such as falsifying business records or the defamation suits.
Any President who would be willing to pardon a predecessor involved in that documents case deserves to be impeached, removed from office and subjected to a serious counterintelligence investigation…and a sedition/espionage trial if warranted.
I just lost all respect for Mitt Romney😮
Shame on him😮
I never respected the VULTURE CAPITALIST
No, No, No! We the People need to see this process. The jury will decide. Not President Biden. Shame on you Mr. Romney. I had more respect for you until now. Have you joined MAGA?
Totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙
Grand juries of his piers indicted traitor trump. All the evidence is coming from his Republican employees and co-conspirators.
This from someone who saids he’s not voting for trump??? Shame on hm!
I never.
Liked Mitt Romney. He's a total fool
Ditto what you said.
I never liked Romney and his ongoing actions continue to prove why. Pathetic
He is a REPUBLICAN.
Thank you love your comment. The simple truth.
Absolutely.
Romney showed his true colors when he was running for president. He doesn't think much of anyone who is not rich...as in millionaires.
I always found Romney a hypocrite.
Romney is wealthy enough to pay for his own security ad leaving the senate but he STILL tries to Bothsides the question in a way favorable to Rump!
It’s a shame, too, because I kinda liked this guy.
Stunts like this are the reason why I, personally, have written off the Republican Party. You just never know when a so-called RINO will decide to try for power by taking the Orange MAGA Kool Aid like it was the Super Soldier Stack…
Romney never knew when to STOP TALKING.
Remember Mitch saying it wasn't his job to bring trump to justice. It was to be handled by the courts. Now, dismiss the courts?
YES, and it drives me batty listening to MCCONNELL (of all people) now bashing the criminal justice system! No spine, no respect for anything, including himself and the Constitution. 😕
TurtleBoy has shown many times that honesty, fairness, consistency and HONOR have no place in his vocabulary ...
HE is another TRAITOR that I've known about for years and years. He is rotting and always has been! WHY people keep electing traitors is BEYOND me!
Yes. Precisely.
McConnell is in it for the power. I read a bio of him and why he married into a rich shipping family. Says what he needs to, when he needs to.
No, Romney. That would've been the WRONG thing to do.
Exactly 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙💙
Yeah, I wouldn't have supported Trump had there not been any charges.
It's "We the people" and not just the DEMS or Government and what we say goes wether we want a law breaker or not in office. If the public fogives him they have the power and not the DEMS and ther laws. We the people" surpass the rule of law. It is the only rule of law.
@@jcbell-dh1bm So you would support trump is there were charges?
You won't say that at the end of the Year ....
Needs to go mitt Romney needs to go mitt Romney needs to go!!
He’s leaving at the end of his term!
How did pardoning a president work out for Gerald Ford?
I can't imagine a single good reason for Biden to pardon Trump. Why should he?
He absolutely should NOT, nixon should NEVER have been pardoned either, it sets a horrible precedent.
Holding Trump accountable is literally the definition of being the bigger guy. How does Romney not understand that pardonimg Trump would embolden him even further. What he doesn't understand is that Trump would happily outlaw the LDS church because his Christian Right brown shirts don't think Mormons are real Christians. 🙄
Absolutely totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙
To dissolve the noise? Not saying I embrace that position, just I see his point of not energizing Trump.
@@rebekahcuriel-alessi2239It won't work. He'll never shut up. He'll always betray everyone and everything.
From the people who would lock up Hillary over missing E Mail.
Deemed Personal. None of which the Trump administration followed
romney never said that
I can't believe Romney said that.
The state of American politics is an absolute embarrassment.
We can't heal as long as justice isn't done
No justice, no peace.
And we never did after Ford Pardoned Nixon.
@@rathertiredofthemess2841 I was 10 in 1973 but I still remember the trials on TV. There was only 4 channels so not a lot to choose from so we watched things like that.
@@lorilxn1597 well? Ford pardoned Nixon the day before my 12th birthday, effectively ending my childhood. The rest of my childhood was spent trying to understand what happened. It had a profound effect on my political bent.
@@rathertiredofthemess2841 well what? It had an effect on me too growing up. I'm sure it did on many of us.
Than why did Romney vote to impeach twice ?
Perhaps because he believed Trump had committed serious crimes and misdemeanors and thus wasn’t fit to be President. Had Trump been impeached he would not be eligible to run for President again. However, he would not have automatically gone to prison. Trump would have had to be tried in court and convicted of a the crime he was impeached for.
Great point
He knew there wouldn't be the votes
Because He is cunning, and traitorous. Just like a viper, to pounce on any chance to benefit from it. If party would vote whom to nominee, between Trump and Himself, id guarantee you, he'd endorse Himself, not Trump, and vote to impeach trump 100%
He's just not as smart as we thought he was. It's way too dangerous to give Trump or any insurrectionist a pass!
I would like to know what Romney's price was?
Why pardon someone who claims he did nothing wrong?
Good point ...
He needs to confess to the
CRIMES
and show remorse for the
CRIMES
before asking for a pardon for the
CRIMES ....
Mitt seems to be putting the cart 10 miles in front of the horse .....
🐴
How can you pardon someone who hasn't been convicted?
@@roddyboethius1722
That's just one of the reasons so many people objected to Ford pardoning Nixon .....
I'm an old guy .... I remember ....
No , Gerald Ford should not have pardoned Nixon.
That's a large reason as to why he was not voted back in
Exactly. That was also very stupid.
The start of all this nonsense happening in the Republican Party with Trump can be traced straight to Nixon's pardon.
They on the Same Team Fool ...

It's funny Romney brought up LBJ when he really should have brought up Gerald Ford.
What the heck is Romney on.
Sad, Romney just showed he has no respect or value for the law. Forget about politics, without law and order we are nothing.
Romneycare for MA was the precursor for ACA. Hillary tried to copy a bit of it under Clinton, but Bill chose NAFTA instead of healthcare after Kissinger told him he couldn't do both.
Biden had 4 years to make the rfich pay higher taxes and he didn't instead he gave em more breaks. He's a liar and broke his campaign promise.
Well his Mormon church commits crimes and he thinks that is ok too.
Romney has revealed that when push comes to shove, he's a Republican first and an American second.
AMEN as the whole freedom caucus just protested for and admitted they are over riding the gag order on purpose?
You might pardon someone who has remorse, now realizes right vs wrong, stopped doing whatever he was accused of. That ain't Trump.
Unfortunately, Senator Romney is wrong on this.
Trump SAID he will do Worse if elected again!
Yes, very wrong.
Not just wrong absolute justice needs to hold Donald accountable for all crimes personal and federal. No dual justice system which is what is happening today.
Totally and completely wrong. So wrong that I am now convinced that he was never qualified to be president. Even now, protecting the party over the country.
That was stupid,like chump would just disappear and we don’t hear from him anymore!?
Romney is WRONG!
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW
Romney is losing the plot now…..
Romney had that awkward Trump encounter, years ago, where he was doing his insincere smile, and then they had their falling out. This seems to be happening again.
It looks like Romney has an addiction to power and is willing to suckle at the teet of Mama powerful.
Romney should have said,
"Trump should not have committed these crimes. He should not have committed crime after crime after crime. Trump should have led with integrity."
Counteracting Trump's populist movement, all agree with Romney, It's tricky. But you do that by just establishing a higher moral ground. Not by fighting on Trump's terms necessarily. Be bigger by actually being bigger.
Be the size of the entirety of human moral history. That's big. Why do we have law at all? Because otherwise we all suffer in the end.
The idea of pardoning the ex president essentially gives the ex-president a pass to do whatever the heck he wants with no accountability.
@@Mackalkka 💯 🎯👍 True Statement!!!

Another Republican showing his distan for the U. S. Constitution.

No more Republicans..we are need to vote for democrats
Disdain
Sometimes you never know who is sleeping with the enemy.
Sad and true
All these people are completely OUT of their minds , out of touch, and a complete DANGER to all Americans including the ignorant ones.
Does accepting a pardon require an admission of guilt?
You can't pardon an innocent man.
We shouldn't have pardoned Nixon. This is where we are now
_"We"_ didn't pardon Nixon. The only President and Vice President that was never elected to either office did that. Gerald R. Ford (The R stand for Republicon.)
We didn't pardon Nixon. Ford did. May that always be his legacy.
Exactly. 🎯 Ford's actions is what got us here in the first place.
Direct line from pardon of Nixon to trump's crimes. There are other direct lines as well, but here we are talking about pardons.
Mitch McConnell should have went for the Senate conviction after Jan 6, 2021! Call it out and vote out all these traitors out! Biden/Harris 2024 vote blue. Saw a good one on YT Vote for Joe not the psycho!!!!
Romney: "You may not agree with me."
The majority of the country: "We definitely don't agree with you."
But this is EXHIBIT A of why Romney was NEVER really presidential material. No real surprise here.
no, this was a smart thing for him to say.
@@Max-ek3kf No, it wasn't. And if you think it was, it was a dumb thing for you to write. No one is above the law.
@@rickmoss6421 nobody said hes above the law. federal pardons are within the confines of the law. mitt is not pro trump
@@Max-ek3kf Are you not aware of the fact that a president can't pardon state crimes? These alleged infractions are being tried at the state level. For whatever reasons, the feds chose not to pursue it. The state of New York, felt it had a strong case.
mittens would have blown Trump to be VP
I've been wanting to say this for awhile...I want to hear Mika's opinions more often. She seems more like a prop on the show and she is an intelligent woman. Sincerely!
NO- NO-NOBODY should be interfering with justice.
Tell the Speaker of the House!
@@sylviagoodman6008 He's a Traitor to the USA🇺🇸14/3!🇺🇸
If there are pardons there needs to be rules to qualify for a pardon, and not handed out like Halloween candy!
Yeah. tell that to the man who violated the gag order like 10 times and still hasn't been jailed
So stop selective prosecution, this is fascism under Joe Biden, the fascists called the victims fascists -
I'm glad Romney has decided not to run for office again.
He has lost his mind, glad I never had the opportunity to support Romney for anything.
Romney just can't get the Republican party out of him is he crazy 😜🤨
"Hi, my name's Mitt Romney and I have learned absolutely nothing from history..."
Pardon Trump? It's absolutely ridiculous. Romne's logic is disgusting and weak. Character matters, and Mitt shows why he didn't become potus.
Trump must be held accountable.
Bingo!
If Trump is not held accountable then the presidency becomes even more of a hotbed of illegal activity.
Don't forget, PATHETIC.
The excuses were laughable, and the crimes that Dump committed were far and above anything that could be excused.
Why is mitt caving…what?
It's a sad day in America, sell out adults that you use to respect.
His comments about issuing a pardon to Trump or interfering with the DOJ in the prosecution of Trump are appalling. Doing so would elevate a former president to the level of an unaccountable monarch above the law. Idiotic and unAmerican.
*I think he should RETIRE!* He has shown his cards and should NOT even hold office! THIS is the kind of CRAP that we the people MUST!! (We Have To!!) CLEAN UP and SWEEP AWAY!!!!
From "The Party of Personal Responsibility," which doesn't want to take responsibility for anything.
Typical maga, and it's disgusting. All of em, from Trump all the way down to Noem need serious prison time.
His comment is a glimpse into the mindset & incite of those privileged that think themselves above the common man & laws. Which is why there is so much America will not survive without a clean slate of Government.
@@waterfuntimes Seems like they are the party of many many things that they aren't. Perhaps the Party of Hypocricy is the most fitting.
Why should Biden forgive Trump? I lost all respect for Romney
I know... for a second there I ALMOST had some.... Imagine "that feeble reasoning" as president.... Ugh.
Biden is reserving the pardon for himself.
😤☝️ IF THE SHOE WAS ON THE OTHER FOOT, WOULD DONALD TRUMP HAVE PARDONED PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN?? NO HE WOULDN'T HAVE! BEGGING PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN TO PARDON HIS ENEMY RIVAL IS TOTALLY INSANE AND INHUMANE! SERIOUSLY MITT??? THAT'S JUST LIKE SUSAN COLLINS CLAIMING THAT DONALD TRUMP HAS LEARNED HIS LESSON! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Pardon the criminal? How did that work out for Gerald Ford?
Romney seems to be living in the past, where government was cordial and civil. Where forgiveness so we can move on might have helped us move on.
But that's what poor old President Ford thought, and here we are - with an F-ton of unsolved problems that we could have faced and settled by now if Ford had not pardoned Nixon.
he's beyond wealthy what does he care? He should just go home and be quiet!
Romney voted to impeach Trump . Now he wants Biden to pardon him ??? I am shocked and so surprised . I have lost all respect for Romney .
Well as Stephanie noted, Romney admitted on record that he feels he can't commit to certain statements because it would end all of his "influence" on the party. I would have to say that Romney has no influence whatsoever on the party as it stands, but he could do a lot of good if he would stand up publicly for Biden, so that any sane Republicans who remain would have solidarity and support for voting for Biden.
They didn't finish hearing him out. People do not not realize that Trump thrives on staying in the limelight. Just as long as he stays in the minds of the American voter he has the ability to influence millions. Repubs strategy is working. Trump is trending daily and we are all humming repetitive tunes. Those that we are absolutely disgusted by....nevertheless we are still humming.🫣 🧐
@locadisa maybe if wasn't running again, but he is running again. So we are supposed to just let it happen again?
@locadisa This is an argument for failing to hold him accountable. That would be even worse in terms of his benefit. So, no, there is no good argument for Romney's position. And his whole thing of, oh pardoning would make Biden the bigger man. That's bs too.
You had respect for him ever? Seriously?
3:15 It's the Republicans who couldn't move on from Donald Trump.
That shows you how smart they are
I understand Romney's point IF Trump is somehow precluded from holding office after the pardon. I just want him to go away too, but is he suggesting that Biden pardon Trump, at which point Trump is free to run for a second term? No, I don't see the benefit in that at all.
I thought at least Romney had some sense, I was wrong. John McCain, would never say these things. He had honor, dignity, character, unlike spineless Romney. There is not a single republican left that will stand up to Trump in either side of the house. If Trump is elected, this country is done.
Actually, the main reason Trump is running again is to save himself from jail. So the pardon would've made some sense if it made Trump retire.
😢👍💯
@@The15iceiceice15 "So the pardon would've made some sense if it made Trump retire" - Do you honestly believe that Trump would have faded away into the sunset if he were pardoned? It would only have increased his rhetoric about how he "did nothing wrong" and that "it's all political". Also, Biden could not have pardoned Trump for state charges (Georgia and New York).
They are both A hole just like Clinton Obama Biden Hillary and so many other. Corruption goes beyond political party
Making a deal with the devil! I'm sure we could rely on trumps word to not run if pardoned!
I‘m sure voters would have turned on Biden if he had pardoned Trump.
The voters turned on Ford when he pardoned Nixon.
They're already turning on Biden and because he has done absolutely nothing for the American people except make things more expensive oh and him spewing tons of hate towards half the American people
Great point.
No doubt!
Most definitely
Having lived in Utah most of my life, Sen. Romney's remarks are so similar to how the LDS church tries to just wash away any wrong doing by it's leaders. Truly juvenile .🤔
Anyway, citing what L.B.J.would of done, really wasn't one of our most stand up presidents we've ever had😢..As history shows, he was a much bigger crook than Nixon..But since back then they all scratched each others back...well, Romilly has made it clear, it was a better way of deceiving the people than what's happening today😢..
No, don't pardon that criminal. We the people need to see accountability for the damage he's done to our country.
PJB would have a grave problem with me if he pardon trump.
Yes, but it should be held off until after the election because now trump will attract more voters. Jail or not. Remember what he said "I am your retribution"
You are referring to Biden's Bribery, correct?
Romney Romney Romney….. you are one of the true conservatives left but obviously don’t have 1/10th the balls or drive to protect our democracy of Liz Cheney or Adam Kinzinger. Very disappointing
Cheney, Kinzinger - sell outs.
Cheney was flushed out in the next election. Kinzinger decided not to run.
Romney has trouble deciding which side he's on.
😊
EXTREMELY!!!
Maybe, Romney has dementia
But he is a good christian 😂
When you are dealing with a malignant narcissist, everything you know about being human is working against you.
With a government like the one we have, it's a miracle that we're still breathing.
All I can say is that I have lost any and all respect for Mitt Romney. He has lost his mind.
You should've known what he was trying to do during the worst of COVID. As people were dying left and right -- he wanted to cut massive funds from government assistance programs IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC!!! ... "Character"... Tisk!
He damned well has. For just a short while I thought that we could trust him. He got kudos for pulling away from maga! *It's all BS now!!!!* 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡🤬
@@ghostface4404 I didn't even realize he wanted to do that!! Wtaf??!!!!
WASHINGTON DC WALLSTREET INC IS A CLUB. A THOROUGHLY SEAMLESS CORRUPT GOVERNMENT INSTITUTION from the judiciary to the executive branch. Regardless of what party is currently in the majority. The corruption has become more blatant and accepted overtime for those who have primarily BENEFITED. Listening to Romney slither... continue to attempt to justify and be an apologist for one of the most BLATANTLY CORRUPT, TWO-BIT SHYSTER CON-Artists who have ever occupied the office of the Presidency is despicable beyond articulation.
It's tragic that his argument was about retaining his power. What good is that if he won't use his power to fight against the corruption inherent in Trump and MAGA?
Pardoning Trump would be an even bigger mistake than Ford Pardoning Nixon. Lord keep us from repeating history. GOP needs to stand on their hind legs, grow some stones, and say "Enough of the MAGA insanity. This must end sooner rather than later."
Would you say the same had Nixon become a dictator running for reelection?
Didn't something like that happen in The Watchmen comic?
Absolutely totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙
Nixon was no where near as dangerous as Trump, like not even close. Pardoning Trump would be a TERRIBLE idea and would embolden & encourage future presidents to break the law because they would know that they won’t face real consequences for anything.
@@kendrabryant4738 Do you actually believe Trump is that bad? You lived for 4 years with him as president and the world kept spinning, Maybe you are just mentally ill?
Pardoning Nixon is part of how we got where we are now.
Pardon has to do with remorse..
Trump's offenses are too serious to pardon.
I most strenuously disagree with Romney. Pardoning Trump would send the WRONG message!!
Exactly!!! Sorry Mitt! That doesn’t make any sense!
What? I thought Romney had more integrity.
Exactly
As for the buying votes thing. Isn't any and every policy that is pushed for or pushed against a way of buying votes? Add or remove a regulation or law can encourage someone to vote for a party. This point is never the win that the GOP thinks it is.
Wow Romney was high or interviewing for VP.
This is very disappointing coming from Romney.
Very. But she would be surprised? Once a Trumper always a Maganut!
I’m not. Romney has been a sycophant from the very beginning.
He's only good in relative terms. He's still a Republican.
True! Very Disappointing!!
He was never a Trumper
How disgusting.
Absolutely 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙💙
OMFG! I just lost all respect for him.
This made me lose the respect I once had for
Romney.
Romney would never say to pardon someone who stole $500 of retail goods and yet he says this nonsense about something much more important.
Not only that, I'm most certain that he wouldn't have wanted to pardon Barack Obama if he had exhibited the same behavior as Trump. He would have gone to his hypocritical fake Christian piety about no one being above the law and how a pardon of Obama would set a very dangerous precedent.
No different than repuglicans won't admit the horror of J6! There is no bottom to their stuff!
Why would you pardon someone who is still actively pulling the rug out from under Democracy…. I’m all about “The Good of the Nation”, This is not that time!
Absolutely totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙
Biden had 4 years to make the rfich pay higher taxes and he didn't instead he gave em more breaks. He's a liar and broke his campaign promise.
Ok what did he do that was as you say getting rid of Democracy? You don't know crap. Com on.
@@antimediaman9354 to late to school you
@@antimediaman9354You have GOT to be kidding. Have you been living on Mars?
Well said Joe mica and Stephanie
If President Biden had pardoned Trump would just be devastating! It would be like Trump did nothing wrong giving his followers more validity on their insane beliefs! Vote 💙
What's the problem with Mitt Romney? Is he trying to get in the good grace of Trump or what? What kind of dumb ideas is he proposing? Does he know that Trump has not admitted guilt in any of his cases? How can you pardon someone who has not shown remorse or admit fault? I guess he's trying to remain relevant in Trump circle.
More like trying to keep in good graces with his god.
I'll BET that Trump now has dirty laundry on Romney. HE gets all of the Dirt on EVERYONE involved with politics so that he can blackmail them. He's been doing this for Decades!!
They're so conflicted. It's because they're not honest with themselves and with their followers..
Totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙
Wow, he's losing it. Dang Mitt's, I am glad you are stepping down. Obviously the correct choice for the people.
Gosh, where have I heard 'separate but equal before'?
Romney is a joke.
Nobody is above the law.
Well, obviously all the judges think Trump is above the law.He's still not in prison
Condoning criminal actions ,c'mon mitt !!!!
What is wrong with Romney? What an absolutely crazy thought!
not a crazy thought if it made Trump retire. Remember the number 1 reason Trump is running again is to avoid jail.
@@The15iceiceice15 Trump doesn't want to retire he wants the power and these keys to the store again.Even if he had no cases he would still run again.
Now Trump will just Pardon himself ...
@@jtpett39 You don't know that. No one can predict what Trump will do. If he decides to run again, Biden ("the pardoner") would get the upperhand in the polls, unlike now.
@@The15iceiceice15 You are truly clueless.If Biden did pardon Trump he would surely loss the election.People want Trump punished for all his crimes.
Romney just lost all credibility. Pardon a criminal and wannabe dictator?
What a shame. This shocked me. Why did he bother to vote for him to be impeached now he is doing a back flip.
Mitt mitt mitt. Not good.
No he shouldn't pardon this traitor 🙄
What's to pardon? According to team trump, trumps a victim.
Insanity.
A pardon, most certainly, would have emboldened, team Putin
