Sen. Mitt Romney on Tuesday firmly denounced Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's recent call for a 'national divorce,' harkening back on what happened in the U.S. during the Civil War.
Asked Tuesday whether he's decided to run for reelection, and if not, when he plans to decide, Romney said he'll have an answer later this year.
"I thought what President Biden did was laudable, bold, courageous and showed that we have resolve to stand with a sovereign nation against an oppressor," Romney told Utah Senate Democrats in a brief visit with their caucus."Look, President Biden and I often disagree," Romney said, blaming the president for helping fuel inflation. "But now and then he does something I agree with and I consider laudatory.
Asked about the Republican Party's attitude toward providing long-term assistance to Ukraine, Romney said he knows "Republicans are somewhat divided on this," but he added, "I think the majority opinion is that we continue to support Ukraine with arms and financial support to help them in their battle against Russian aggression."
"And ultimately, that involves us," Romney said. "If we want to have a prosperous America at peace, we need to stop people that are aggressively invading their neighbors and terrorizing the world."
