On Monday, Republican Sen. Mitt Romney slammed President Donald Trump, stating that the President did not have any sufficient evidence to prove his allegations of election fraud.

In an interview for CNBC’s “The News,” Romney criticized the President, stating that he had failed to provide enough proof that his opponent, former Vice-president, Joe Biden stole his way to the elections. During the discussion, the show’s host, Shepard Smith, brought the news of Attorney-General, William Barr’s resignation. Smith said that Barr resigned because Trump continued to alleged voter fraud without presenting any substantial evidence.

Romney agreed, “Yeah, well, Bill Barr drew the line. I credit him with once you draw the line, if someone steps over it, you say, ‘Okay, that’s the consequence.” The show’s host then went on to ask the Republican Senator, how much damage did he think the President had caused to the country’s democracy in his attempt to overturn the election.

The GOP politician stated that his greatest concern on the matter is that Trump made people believe that the elections were indeed stolen, however, he said that “there’s not evidence of that.” To prove that Trump planned this all along, Romney claimed that the President was already talking about election fraud even before it had started. The Senator then tried to relate it to his own experience as a failed Presidential nominee. Romney claimed that when he did not win in the 2012 election, he accepted his loss instead of going out and accusing that the results were a fraud.

The Senator continued by saying that like most failed politicians, Trump must respect the process because every vote counts. “That’s the way it is,” Romney said. Before he ended their discussion, he claimed that Trump’s action might have a lasting effect not just on American democracy but as well as around the world. Romney feared that people would look at the country as a “democratic leader” and would feel “dispirited”’ by the example that it had led.

The announcement of the Attorney-General’s resignation was made by the President himself, on Monday afternoon. However, the President clarified that there was no bad blood between him and Barr. In a social media post, the President noted that their relationship was a “good one” and that the AG had made an “outstanding job.” Trump explained that Barr decided to resign earlier than expected since he wanted to spend more time with his family. Finally, Trump appointed Jeff Rosen as the Deputy Attorney General.

While the Electoral College had already confirmed Biden’s win, Republican Senators are set to challenge his certification when it reaches Congress on January 6.
