Fox Business’ Lou Dobbs tore into Mitt Romney tonight and called him a “treacherous fool” for his op-ed decrying President Donald Trump‘s lack of character.
He blasted Romney for trying to run with Trump during the campaign, saying he “lied” to voters. Rollins said, “And the bottom line is the party today is Donald Trump’s party. It’s not Romney’s party.”
Dobbs concluded by calling Romney a “treacherous fool” and saying he’s “an embarrassment to the state of Utah.”
“Mitt Romney is lower than a snake’s belly,” said Dobbs after introducing Rollins, who noted that Romney has become the “leader of the opposition in the Republican Party.”
“I mean, he’s reprehensible,” said Dobbs. “I can’t believe the people of Utah elected this creep.”
“Wait a minute,” said Dobbs after Rollins recalled that Trump had endorsed Romney. “You mean the people of Utah didn’t know that he was anti-Trump? He didn’t run against Trump? He ran with Trump. Is that right? So he’s lied to the people of Utah.”
“He’s a fool, and he is also absolutely a treacherous fool,” said Dobbs. “He’s an embarrassment to the state of Utah. That’s the way it’s going to be because he’s obviously committed to his role as the smallest man in the Senate. It’s disgusting.”
Romney has been roundly criticized for his position, most notably by his niece, RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.
