TRUMP: It's 'So Nice' To See 'Stone Cold Loser' Mitt Romney Booed Off Stage At GOP Event
President Donald Trump weighed in on the humiliation of Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) at the Utah Republican Party convention over the weekend, gloating over the crowd’s decision to boo the massively unpopular lawmaker off the stage.
“So nice to see RINO Mitt Romney booed off the stage at the Utah Republican State Convention,” President Trump said in a statement from the Save America 45 PAC. “They are among the earliest to have figured this guy out, a stone cold loser!”
As National File previously reported, Romney was vigorously heckled and appeared totally unable to cope with his own unpopularity during his appearance at the Utah GOP convention:
Sen. Mitt Romney, the lone Republican Senator to vote to impeach President Donald Trump in both of the 45th President’s Senate impeachment trials, was just loudly booed at the Utah Republican Party convention at the Maverick Center in West Valley, Utah.
Romney was greeted by boos immediately after entering the stage. Apparently mistaking the boos for applause, Romney began by smiling and thanking the booing crowd profusely. He offered thanks and thumbs up to the crowd for over two minutes as the crowd continued to boo his presence.
“So what do you think about President Biden’s first 100 days,” Romney said, beginning his speech even as the crowd made it almost impossible to hear him through their boos. Romney eventually stopped speaking for several seconds before asking the crowd, “Aren’t you embarrassed?” At one point a Republican Party operative approached the podium and instructed the crowd to “show respect.”
