WATCH: Mitt Romney Says He Will Vote For Democrat Before Trump


Senator Mitt Romney has proved he’s a Republican in name only once again.

In a recent sit-down interview with CBS’s Norah O’Donnell, Mitt Romney said he would support anybody over Trump.

Romney also stated, ā€œIā€™d be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans ā€” maybe not Vivek [Ramaswamy] ā€” but the others that are running would be acceptable to me, and Iā€™d be happy to vote for them.”

He continued, ā€œIā€™d be happy to vote for a number of the Democrats too…It would be an upgrade, in my opinion, from Donald Trump.”

In a CBS interview with Norah Oā€™Donnell on Friday, the retiring senator solidified his reputation as a stalwart anti-Trump Republican, saying he would support ā€œanybodyā€ over Trump.

ā€œIā€™d be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans ā€” maybe not Vivek [Ramaswamy] ā€” but the others that are running would be acceptable to me, and Iā€™d be happy to vote for them,ā€ the retiring senator said Friday in an interview with CBSā€™s Norah Oā€™Donnell.

ā€œIā€™d be happy to vote for a number of the Democrats too,ā€ he continued. ā€œIt would be an upgrade, in my opinion, from Donald Trump and perhaps also from Joe Biden.ā€
Romney announced in September that he will not seek reelection, sparking a wave of gloating insults from Trump and his allies.

Per The New York Post:

Sen. Mitt Romney said he would vote for a Democrat over former President Trump or businessman Vivek Ramaswamy in a potential 2024 general election matchup.

ā€œIā€™d be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans, maybe not Vivek, but the others that are running would be acceptable to me and Iā€™d be happy to vote for them,ā€ Romney said to CBS news host Norah Oā€™Donnell in a clip which resurfaced online Saturday.

ā€œIā€™d be happy to vote for a number of the Democrats too. I mean, it would be an upgrade from, in my opinion, from Donald Trump and perhaps also from Joe Biden,ā€ Romney added, without specifying which Democrats he had in mind.

The remarks were originally aired a month ago as part of a lengthy discussion between Romney and Oā€™Donnell on a new book about the senator.
