Romney also agrees (that he’s been given cover to say something?)
“Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) challenged the assertion from the White House and some of his GOP colleagues that Ukraine had interfered in the 2016 election.
“I saw no evidence from our intelligence community, nor from the representatives today from the Department of State, that there is any evidence of any kind that suggests that Ukraine interfered in our elections,” Romney told reporters outside a Senate hearing. “We have ample evidence that Russia interfered in our elections.”
Romney, a longtime critic of Trump, had tweeted in October that Trump’s appeal to China and Ukraine to investigate the Bidens was “wrong and appalling.”
“But in a recent interview with the Salt Lake Tribune, Romney said he wouldn’t comment on the impeachment inquiry, including whether the process is unfair as many other Republicans contend it is.
Romney was overheard to (probably) say, “I can dispute Republicans here in D.C. because no one in Utah can buy a copy of the Washington Post there.”
