During an exclusive interview with MSNBC, former Republican presidential candidate and current Utah Senator Mitt Romney shockingly revealed that he would have pardoned former President Donald Trump if he had been in office.
Romney, a long-time critic of Trump, made the surprising confession during an interview with MSNBC host Chuck Todd. When asked about the possibility of pardoning Trump for any potential crimes he may have committed while in office, Romney responded that he would have gone ahead with it.
“I would have pardoned him,” Romney told Todd. “I think it’s important for the country to move on and to heal. And I believe that a pardon for Trump would have been a step in that direction.”
Romney’s statement comes as a surprise to many, given his past criticisms of Trump and his actions while in office. The two men have had a contentious relationship, with Romney often publicly denouncing Trump’s behavior and policies.
However, Romney’s reasoning for pardoning Trump appears to be rooted in a desire to promote unity and healing in a deeply divided America. Despite their differences, Romney seems to believe that a pardon for Trump would have helped to bring the country together and move past the tumultuous years of the Trump presidency.
The revelation has sparked a mixture of reactions from both Democrats and Republicans. Some have praised Romney for his willingness to put aside personal differences in the interest of national unity, while others have criticized him for seemingly letting Trump off the hook for any potential wrongdoings.
It remains to be seen how Romney’s comments will impact his standing within the Republican party and his future political ambitions. But one thing is clear: his unexpected revelation has reignited the debate over Trump’s legacy and the best path forward for the country as it seeks to heal and move forward from the tumult of the Trump era.
The border was a big problem during trump more than Biden. I don’t agree with Mitt Romney. During Trump every thing was a disaster. Drama every single day. We as good citizens were tired of Republicans. So many bad things happened.
Not a peep about the debt under TFG.
Pardon is a stupid idea.
Bad take Romney
It's 2024 and this clown is still defending Bush.
Protect the world except Afghanistan.
The journalist should just wore a BIDEN shirt
MSN BS!!
This guy is full of shiiiii pardon him so we can keep on going through this bs and he wants to cut social security
Romney is so full of sh-;(. The republicans have nearly destroyed our economy these last few decades.
Think about all the money Trump gave back to rich people that didn’t need it.
Romney continues to destroy any little credibility he had. What a shame. The Republicans will soon be extinct.
Costs are different for this generation of students.
That's why you're not the president of our democracy and freedoms.
Romney had a brief, redeeming moment as an old-school Republican, repudiating Trumpism. But sadly, that moment was fleeting.
Yesterday's man trying to remain relevant.
when you give relief to students' loans, it's an investment that will give jobs to the poor in the future
You cannot pardon someone who do not believe they committed a crime and has no remorse.
Not one time did this current US Senator mention accoutability. Not once. Sad.
People who hate Trump think Mitt is being sincere, and people who love Trump think that he's lying. He can't achieve anything positive with a statement like this.
