Mitt Romney says he’s still anti-Trump after meeting with him: ‘Matter of personal character’
SUMMARY
Senator Mitt Romney, after attending a meeting with former President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill, maintained his stance against Trump. Romney, who has often been critical of Trump, clarified that he attended to understand Trump’s future plans if elected president. Despite this, he claimed that his opposition is based on personal 'character issues', referencing the 2023 court ruling in which Trump was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation against E. Jean Carroll. However, Romney acknowledged Trump's significant influence in the Republican Party, and Trump's continued appeal among many GOP voters.
