President Trump Confirms Romney Intentionally Left off of Task Force
President Trump has confirmed that he intentionally left Senator Mitt Romney off of the bipartisan coronavirus task force. This is likely confirmation that Trump continues to hold a grudge against Romney for his vote to remove President Trump from office.
According to The Hill:
President Trump on Sunday said he intentionally left Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) off his congressional task force on reopening the U.S. economy amid the coronavirus, acknowledging it shows he still holds a grudge over the senator’s impeachment vote.
AdvertisementThe president included every Republican senator on the task force except Romney, who voted to convict Trump for abuse of power. Asked if his exclusion shows he’s still holding a grudge, Trump said, “Yeah, it does.”
“I’m not a fan of Mitt Romney,” Trump said, adding, “I don’t really want his advice.”
“Yeah it does,” Trump says when asked if he still holds a grudge against Mitt Romney after he was the only GOP senator excluded from congressional task force for reopening America.

The White House on Thursday released the members of its “Opening Up America Again Congressional Group.” The list included nearly 70 senators, including all 52 of Romney’s GOP colleagues in the chamber.
Romney has been critical of Trump since be began running for President in 2015.
Mitt Romney is a traitor and he is no rebublican mark my words he is not a republican he is secretly as a dark side of democrat and mitt romney are trump hater and antitrump So obviously hes playing mind games and switching sides he is not to be trusted.
President Trump needs ALL of us to support him!!
Romney is just another career fraud, and member of the establishment swamp that the President is trying to clean up. His success so far is why we currently have a complete shut down, they are holding our nation hostage, just so they can force President Trump & the American people to bow to their globalist, socialist nonsense programs. They should all be removed from office, and prosecuted for treason, subversion, and attempted coup.
good for him
romney is a POS, I have a grudge against him
trump should ignore him and treat as non senator… let utah elect a better person if they want representation
WHY WOULD TRUMP ALLOW A BACK STABBING ,TRUMP HATING ,SOB TO BE APPOINTED TO ANYTHING? ROMNEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT AMERICA,SIDES WITH THE DUMARATS,AND IS A TRAITOR TO AMERICA,AND WOULD ONLY GIVE FAKE ADVISE ON ANY ISSUE,OR JUST SIDE WITH WHAT THE DUMARATS SUGGEST.. WHO NEEDS A TRAITOR LIKE THAT ON ANY TEAM?
I like Trey Gowdy, I always wished he lived in my state of Michigan, Him I would have liked
to be on any committee, He is good and cares about people.
My question would be why have a Rhino or better traitor to his party like Mitt Romney on any task force or committee. He has shown us he cannot be trusted or given any leadership roles. Trump knows that and so should most Americans. He needs to switch parties and become a Democrat if he does not support his own party and their views.
Just to make clear Mitt Romney started the ongoing feud between Trump and himself. It is alright to have a different view or opinion but he should still support his party when it comes to an action like impeachment of the POTUS. He decided to vote for impeachment on the first ruling for personal political gain not because he was guilty on any charges. I will never vote for Mitt Romney because he is a turncoat Rhino.
DUH! That should be a no-brainer even for MSM journalists.
Romney is a dead duck.
Why would Romney deserve such a position? He’s not to be trusted in the least. Good for President Trump!
Good Trump should have left him task just career swamped out for himself as he screws over all American people. I didn’t care for Obama he was and is a total loser. But can anyone imagine what shape the country would be in ole Rummey would have been president. Just as bad as Obama left us.
This is not a problem, Romney is a nobody anyway! Sewer Rat describes Romney more truthfully!
It’s just to bad the President can’t fire the little scum bag. I wouldn’t have him on latrine detail, if it were me.
Not a grudge, just common sense.
Frankly, I feel sorry for Mitt. He is the Republican Hillary. He believes he deserved to win, was cheated, and still doesn’t understand why voters rejected him. Like Hillary, he believes he was entitled to the office. Great resume, very rich, experienced and beautiful family and hair, right out of casting. The voters rejected him too because he couldn’t connect with the working folks. He was just one more elite with a different label.
Stick your so-called “grudge” where the sun doesn’t shine. What are we talking about grade school kids — WTF !!!!!!!! romney is nothing but a whiny whimpering POS who would obstruct whatever President Trump would want to do. He not only deserves to be left off the task force — he deserves to be thrown out of congress for acting like a spoiled 10 year old little girl.
The President has the right to have only people who support him and believe in what he is doing. He does not need anyone from the swamp and should get rid of them as soon as possible.
Another SMART move by our president. Romney needs to be left out of everything, except the Democrat party. That is where he belongs.
Scum do not belong on important committees. Romney clearly qualifies as scum. If it upsets Utah voters they need to reevaluate their standards for electing officials.
Romney is a treacherous A-hole of the tenth degree and a man with no party,I wish him a long life of which he crated for himself.I’m proud of Trump for excluding this traitor.
I don’t blame Trump. Romney stabbed him in the back by voting yes on the bogus impeachment. Trump went to Utah and campaigned for Romney and then he votes to impeach him for nothing? Romney is a snake and should have stayed in his former party, Democrats. He fits right in with them. He has no integrity, is corrupt and has no loyalty.
Another 2 faced liar, deceitful dem libtard like mccain that does not vdesere U.S. Freedom !
That’s not holding a grudge, it’s evaluating a person’s (romney’s) clear indication that he is unable to think clearly.
It is incomprehensible why the republicans keep Romney in the party!
Grudge? Really? Seems Romney’s the one with the grudge. President Trump campaigned for and endorsed Romney. Romney has decided to stab PRESIDENT Trump in the back repeatedly. Why? Because RINO traitor Romney has a grudge against OUR PRESIDENT. What grudge? PRESIDENT Trump didn’t give him a cabinet spot, a directorship, nor an ambassadorship when traitor Romney had demanded one. Now, there’s the grudge, folks. OUR President is protecting us from filth like traitor Romney – former SOH traitor Ryan’s partner in crime.
