‘RINO’ Romney Laments Never Getting a Call From Biden to Negotiate a ‘Bipartisan’ Election Reform Bill

U.S. Sen Mitt Romney (R-UT) appeared this morning on NBC’s “Meet the Press” this morning and told host Chuck Todd that he never received a call from Joe Biden to negotiate “Bipartisan” election reform legislation.

Todd asked Romney, “If the president calls you up tomorrow and says, ‘Senator Romney, I’d like to figure out something on voting rights, let’s have a conversation’… look, it may not be what some want on the left but is that a place to begin and would you participate in that process?”

Romney responded, “Yeah, and Chuck I already am. The group of about 12 senators, Republicans and Democrats, that are already working on the electoral count act will continue to work together.”

“Sadly, this election reform bill that the president is pushing, I never got a call on that from the White House,” Romney lamented.

Romney reported, “There was no negotiation, bringing Republicans and Democrats together to try and come together something that would meet bipartisan interest.”

“Sure we can work together on almost every issue where there’s common ground,” Romney continued, before pivoting to a lecture on why he didn’t agree with the so-called “voting rights act.”

Romney explained, “I would note on this, that on the bill that they put together, they want a real dramatic change, which is they feel that instead of elections being run at the state level, they should be really be managed and run at the federal level.”

“Recognize, the founders didn’t have that vision in mind. They didn’t want an autocrat to be able to pull the lever and change the election laws, instead they spread that out over 50 states I think in part to keep autocracy from finding its root here in this country so we can work together and I think it’s important to reform the electoral count act,” Romney concluded.

TODAY: If Pres. Biden calls you tomorrow and says "can we sit down and have a conversation" about voting rights, would you participate?

Liberals were not happy with the interview, like Twitter user “Jen” who declared, “Chuck Todd is letting Romney say anything and not pushing back on any of it. He is the worst host of meet the press. It is such a shame.”

“Views & Visions” also had harsh words and suggested in a tweet, “Chuck Todd – Meet The Press – letting Republican hack Mitt Romney rattle lies with no pushback, no counter FACTS, no follow up. No corrections. Meet The Press? Meet the moron who pretends to be a ‘journalist’.”

It seems that despite all of his goodwill in the past towards the left, Romney still gets no love the second he crosses their preferred narrative.

As for Todd, his show never gives true conservatives a voice and the roundtable discussions are extremely left-leaning but nevertheless, he still gets excoriated by those who want to fundamentally change the nation.
