Sen. Mitt Romney’s tearful decision to vote in favor of an article of impeachment against President Trump last month prompted the president to declare the Utah Republican a “disgrace” to the GOP.
Democrats, however, appear to be charmed.
“Although Romney’s 39% favorability among U.S. adults is unchanged from a year ago, he is currently viewed more favorably among Democrats than he is among Republicans, a reversal of previous readings. A 56% majority of Democrats but just 23% of Republicans now hold favorable views of Romney,” reports a wide-ranging Gallup poll released Wednesday.
“Compared with Gallup’s prior reading of Romney in February 2019, his favorable rating is up 19 points among Democrats and down 22 points among Republicans,” the pollster said.
But that could all change as well.
“Romney’s decision last week to back the Republicans’ investigation of Hunter Biden’s actions in Ukraine could quickly temper Democrats’ opinion of him,” Gallup said.
Indeed, Mr. Romney revealed on Friday he would approve the investigation after Homeland Security Committee’s GOP chairman Rep. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin assured the senator that the matter would be a closed-door event, rather than a spectacle.
The vote on the investigation is scheduled for Wednesday on Capitol Hill.

Good old Mitt Open Borders, Romney care in Massachusetts, pro life, then pro choice , then pro life, flip flopper Romney!!!!!!! RINO DEMORAT TRAITOR!!!!!!!!!! I hope the voters in Utah will not vote in this trash, if he seeks being a Senator again.
LETS HOPE they wake up and REPEAL his butt.
Romney IS A WISHY WASHY FLIP FLOPPER! He’s A TOTAL DISGRACE in EVERY realm. He BACK-STABBED President Donald J Trump! Do the People of Utah and the IDIOTS WHO LIKE this guy THINK or have an iota of REASONING?? Romney IS A COWARD, I wouldn’t want this guy ON MY TEAM he bends whichever way the wind blows! NO INTEGRITY!
Duh! I didn’t need a poll to figure this out.
Romney is dumb as dirt if he thinks Dem approval is something to solicit. Dems have sunk to depraved depths and THIS is the point where he climbs on board their wagon of manure? Has he forgotten how they smeared him when he was running for the Presidency? If he had at least stayed silent but no, he had to remove all doubt that he’s a fool, playing to the Dem crowd that cheated his opponent to victory and is obviously trying to do the same to Trump. After his own experience at dirty Dem hands, Romney should have been a Republican shield instead of a back-stabbing traitor. And to pretend his religion tells him to make common cause with destroyers of the Republic!
Enjoy it, Mitt b/c . . . (1) it won’t last, and (2) you won’t be welcomed back by the Rs.
HE BETTER NOT be welcomed back..
