RIVERTON -Mayor Trent Staggs slammed Sen. Mitt Romney for his reaction to the Biden Administration's political persecution of former President Donald Trump. Romney said that Trump brought the "banana republic"-style political harassment "upon himself."
In an exclusive interview with Breitbart, Staggs said:
Staggs accused President Joe Biden of “abusing his power to weaponize the Justice Department against a political opponent.”
And — yet again — Mitt Romney gives a milquetoast response, showing us once more, he has no backbone,” Staggs said.
“For him, the Senate is about settling his petty beefs, not upholding the Constitution,” he concluded.
Staggs likewise released a statement on Twitter:
We are truly living in unprecedented times. Those in power have weaponized the justice department against their political opponents. Whether Republican or Democrat this should scare every one of us as a sign of things to come if we do not unite and say no more. https://t.co/BS99dgHGtN
