●Mitt Romney上院議員
Mitt Romney, the Utah Senator who has been a Trump critic, wrote on Twitter late
Thursday that Trump had failed to make a “plausible case” of widespread election
fraud, and was now trying to pressure state and local officials to overturn the
election. “It is difficult to imagine a worse, more undemocratic action,” he wrote.

First “never Trumpers” called on Trump to begin turning over power to Biden
almost immediately after the Nov. 3 election, the strategist said on Friday,
followed by “marginal never Trumpers” a week later.
They are now being joined by Republicans who supported him reluctantly over the
past four years, he said. “In reality, Republicans all over are turning the page”
on Trump’s presidency, he said.
