Romney steps up fundraising as he weighs reelection

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah., has not yet said if he is running for reelection — but his latest fundraising report shows that he could be preparing for a competitive 2024 campaign.

Romney increased his fundraising roughly tenfold from April through June, bringing in nearly $1.1 million, according to a new fundraising report filed Saturday. During the first three months of the year, Romney raised just $110,000.

The Utah senator could face a primary challenge if he decides to run. State House Speaker Brad Wilson launched an exploratory committee for the Senate in mid-April. His committee reported raising $2.2 million in the second fundraising quarter, including a $1.2 million loan from Wilson himself.



Wilson did have more money in his campaign account at the end of the quarter, with $2.1 million on hand to Romney's nearly $1.6 million.

Romney, also his party’s presidential nominee in 2012, has angered some on the right as a staunch Donald Trump critic, even voting to convict Trump during both of his impeachment trials.

Romney’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but campaign finance filings also show that Romney has signed onto more joint fundraising committees so he can team up with other GOP senators up for re-election next year.

Romney easily won his first term in the Senate in 2018 by 32 points in Utah, a traditionally Republican state. Former President Donald Trump won the state by nearly 21 points in 2020.

He would probably be more popular now that three years ago, might even find a way to be a 2nd or 3rd most popular choice if all went well. He has a steeper climb than DeSantis has.

I live in Utah and would NEVER vote for that RINO turncoat. That's a guarantee. Most of my associates here in southern Utah are conservatives and none of us like that liberal bastard.

What makes Romney a liberal and "RINO?"

That's the point I've been making lately. The term "conservative" has taken on a new meaning. Romney is a warmonger which means he sides with the Democrats. Before Obamacare (a very socialist concept), there was "Romneycare" in the state of Massachusetts, which was essentially the same thing. He's sided with Democrat Senators on several occasions. He voted to convict Trump. The man is a pretender and should literally switch from the Republican Party to the Democrat Party.

He dared to criticized the Chosen One.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Even his superman tights aint gonna help him.

 

[JoeB131]

I have mixed feelings about this.

I was pretty much done with the GOP after they nominated Romney, because frankly, I think Mormons are a degenerate and evil cult that want power in this country.

What I find amusing is that all the people who defended Romney to the hilt in 2012 are the ones coming back here and calling him a RINO and Traitor now.

Of course, I would be more impressed with Romney's sudden bout of integrity if he showed in 2012, when instead of strongly denouncing Trump's racism, he instead decided he had to kiss Trump's ring.

 

[BluesLegend]

Turncoat RINO Romney is an Obama light.

 

[JGalt]

What makes Romney a liberal and "RINO?"

In the 116th Congress, Romney voted against his party 4.5% of the time. In the 117th Congress, it was 23.9%. In the 118th Congress it was 21.8%.

Votes Against Party by Mitt Romney (R-Utah)

So yes, he's a liberal RINO.

What makes Romney a liberal and "RINO?"

He dared to go against Der Fuhrer.

I am surprised that the retards haven't yet sent a lynching party after him a la Pence.

What these people don't understand is that being anti-Trump isn't working.

They are jealous of him.
