Senator Mitt Romney expressed concerns about the possibility of Donald Trump winning re-election and indicated openness to voting for Joe Biden in a head-to-head race.
Romney criticized Trump’s actions as president, particularly in the last months, and described them as authoritarian.
“Donald Trump is kind of a human gumball machine, which is a thought or a notion comes in and it comes out of his mouth. There’s not a lot of filter that goes on,” Romney said. (Trending: LeBron James Shares Gun Advice For Americans)

He added, “I do think you can look at his record as president, and particularly in the last months of his presidency, and say, ‘This is a dangerous approach. It’s an authoritarian approach.’”
“That gives me far more concern than him playing to the crowd, as he did.”
Romney also mentioned that he has not supported any of Trump’s Republican opponents and sees former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley as a leading candidate.
“Well, because if I endorsed them, it would be the kiss of death,” he said.
“I’m not going to do that.”
Additionally, he expressed a preference for retiring Senator Joe Manchin as a Democratic nominee.
“In my view, bad policy we can overcome as a country we have in the past. Bad character is something which is very difficult to overcome,” Romney said.
Romney also stated that he didn’t vote for Trump in 2020 and that he wouldn’t support a formal impeachment inquiry into the president unless more evidence is presented.
“If I were the House, I’d vote against it unless they were able to bring forward evidence that suggested there were a high crime or misdemeanor that had been committed,” Romney said. “But so far, that hasn’t been the case.”
