Mitt Romney speaks candidly about Trump’s $130k payment to Stormy Daniels

Former Republican Senator Mitt Romney has once again made headlines with his scathing remarks about former President Donald Trump. Romney did not hold back when discussing Trump’s hush money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, calling into question the former president’s character.

In a statement to reporters, Romney stated, “I think everyone has made their own assessment of President Trump’s character. And as far as I know, you don’t pay someone $130,000 not to have sex with you.” These comments come as Trump is currently on trial in New York on felony charges related to the hush money payment made by his former attorney, Michael Cohen.

Romney, who has been vocal about his disapproval of Trump, also made it clear that he would not support the former president in the 2024 election and would not rule out voting for President Joe Biden if the two were to face off. He criticized Trump for his behavior, stating that it showed a willingness to impose his will on the nation.

The Utah Senator’s remarks come at a time when a majority of Americans, according to a recent poll, have indicated that they would not vote for Trump if he were convicted of a felony or serving time in prison. Romney’s outspoken criticism of Trump continues to highlight the deep divide within the Republican party and the ongoing impact of Trump’s presidency on American politics.
