Romney: I Trust President Biden – I Take Him at His Word
Pam Key 27 Jun 2021
Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that he trusted President Joe Biden while discussing the infrastructure deal brokered by him and a bipartisan group of his colleagues.
Discussing the confusion over President Joe Biden first saying a second package pushed by progressives will be attached to the bipartisan deal but walking that back on Saturday, anchor Jake Tapper said, “You just heard the president say he trusts you, based on the whiplash over the last few days, do you trust the president?”
Romney said, “I do trust the president. and he made very clear in the much larger statement that came out over the weekend carefully crafted and thought through piece-by-piece that if the infrastructure bill reaches his desk and it comes alone, he will sign it. At the same time, I recognize that he and his Democrat colleagues want more than that, want other legislation as well. We, Republicans, are saying absolutely no. At the same time, trillions of dollars of new spending is something we will not support. Fixing the infrastructure in our country and fixing our airports and roads and bridges and transit system and rail is something we will support. We can get the job done.”
Tapper said, “How many Republicans in the Senate do you have committed to vote for this bipartisan infrastructure deal?”
