President Trump lashed out at Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) after the Republican senator criticized Trump over his dealings with Ukraine.
Said Trump: “Somebody please wake up Mitt Romney and tell him that my conversation with the Ukrainian President was a congenial and very appropriate one.”
He added: “If Mitt worked this hard on Obama, he could have won. Sadly, he choked!”
In a subsequent tweet he called Romney a “pompous ass” who has been fighting me from the beginning.
