Sen. Mitt Romney (RINO-UT) attempted to engage in a verbal brawl with Republican firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) over her words advocating for a national separation from the ‘Marxist-Pro-Chinese Communist Party’ left.
Romney, a staunch Never Trump supporter, showed he desired unity and pushed back on Greene, which resulted in his humiliation, while he claimed that everyone else in ‘his party’ was ‘crazy.’
In response to Greene’s campaign for a divorce from the left, Romney, a man with a soft and vulnerable exterior, launched a daring personal assault on Greene.
“I think Abraham Lincoln dealt with that kind of insanity,” he told The Salt Lake Tribune on Tuesday. “We’re not going to divide the country. It’s united we stand and divided we fall. There are some people in my party and the other party that say things to try and get a headline and get people to send them money. And that happens to be in today’s ‘loony left,’ or I should say ‘loony right.’”
Romney made the statements while looking like he was about to cry.

In a statement to the Washington Examiner, the Georgia representative rebutted Romney’s remarks.
“Mitt Romney is so bad I couldn’t even vote for him for president against Barack Obama,” she said.
Green was formerly opposed by proponents of the administrative state, such as Romney.
Conservative Brief’s Carmine Sabia reported last week that Greene claimed she was accosted while dining in a restaurant.
“I was attacked in a restaurant tonight by an insane women and screamed at by her adult son. They had no respect for the restaurant or the staff or the other people dining or people like me who simply have different political views. They are self righteous, insane, and completely out of control. I was sitting at my table, working with my staff, and never even noticed these people until they turned into demons. People used to respect others even if they had different views. But not anymore. Our country is gone,” she said on Twitter.
Sabia reported more details, adding some speculation about her stand on Ukraine as a :
The spokeswoman did not specify the place where the event happened or what she was told.
This month, the Georgia MP grabbed headlines when she addressed the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Greene is requesting an examination of the United States’ financial assistance to Ukraine. She said on Thursday that she intends to reintroduce a measure to examine the tens of billions of dollars donated to Ukraine.
