President Donald Trump on Saturday ridiculed Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) for his loss to former President Barack Obama in the 2012 election one day after Romney said he was sickened by Trumps actions as detailed in special counsel Robert Muellers report.
If @MittRomney spent the same energy fighting Barack Obama as he does fighting Donald Trump, he could have won the race (maybe)! Trump tweeted.
Attached to the presidents post was a 40-second video contrasting election night footage and CNN news coverage from Romneys White House loss six-and-a-half years ago to Obama with Trumps victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016. It was unclear whether the White House produced the brief clip, or if it was crafted by one of the presidents supporters.
Romney is one of the few Republican senators who has expressed disappointment in the president following the release of a redacted version of Muellers report by Attorney General William Barr on Thursday.
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) told a radio station that the special counsels findings offered an unflattering portrayal of the president," and Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) said in a statement that the 448-page report documents a number of actions taken by the president or his associates that were inappropriate.
But Romney was harsher in his criticism than his GOP Senate colleagues, saying in a statement Friday that he was sickened at the extent and pervasiveness of dishonesty and misdirection by individuals in the highest office of the land, including the President.

Trump needs a case of Preparation H for his massive butthurt.

Something to thing about,how many from that same Religion are members of Congress. Interesting things are about to happen. Never cause harm to their White Knight.
