He definitely will in a couple of months like a good little Republican.

Hahahah Yup! Like, I'd totally believe this guy, except I saw his lips moving which means he's lying.

Normally statements denouncing Trump from a sitting elected Republican is accompanied by a retirement announcement (fears of primary challengers, etc). Now, that's not always the case but, to my knowledge, this guy might be the first US Senator to do so.

Senator Mitt Romney has been a vocal never-Trumper all along.

Yes, we know...you're all brave little Republicans, risking it all to save your party. Right up until Trump notices you.

He'll like the boot like all the others.

He's not up for reelection until 2028, plenty of time for people to forget

Unfortunately it doesn’t even matter. People around here will still vote for him regardless. His name now has staying power and people here are goldfish to any new info.

"I hate Trump however I will gladly vote for his agenda."

Pretty ballsy coming from an Indiana GOP senator after the last challenger dropped out.

Now let's see what he says in November.
