Letter: Romney is a RINO

(Francisco Kjolseth | Tribune file photo) Sen. Mitt Romney meets state lawmakers at the Utah Capitol as he speaks with members of the Republican House Caucus during a series of meetings on Thursday, Feb. 21, 2019.

Are any Utahns as sorry as I am that we voted the carpetbagger Mitt Romney in as our U.S. senator? Then to find out he is a RINO?

He campaigned as if he had made up with President Donald Trump, only to find that this was for election purposes only. He then made vicious statements against his fellow being for personal publicity (contrary to his declared religion).

If we could smell hypocrisy as we can tobacco and alcohol or campfire smoke, we may never have elected Mitt.
