Despite having been all in for former President Donald Trump’s dubious impeachments, Sen. Mitt Romney, an ostensible Republican, isn’t down with the GOP’s current efforts to impeach President Joe Biden, surprise, surprise.
“Look, there has to be the allegation of a high crime or misdemeanor, which there has not been. So it’s an absurd political process. If at some point someone alleges a crime, why then, it’s legitimate, but that hasn’t happened yet,” he told the Washington Examiner on Wednesday.
“There have been lots of lousy presidents, but that’s not a reason to impeach someone, because there’s this little thing called the Constitution. Not doing a good job certainly fits the bill here, but it’s just not in the Constitution,” he added, taking a swipe at President Biden’s demonstrable incompetence.
