‘They don’t have Mitt Romney in their midst’: President Trump rebukes Republican Senator Mitt Romney for publicly criticizing him, and says that unlike the Republican party, the Democrats ‘stick together’

WASHINGTON - Donald Trump on Monday exhorted fellow Republicans to get tougher and fight for his presidency, saying the Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives wants to impeach him “as quick as possible” over his request that Ukraine investigate a political rival.

Few Republican lawmakers have shown an inclination to remove Trump from office even as Democrats focus on his pushing a vulnerable foreign ally to interfere to his benefit in the November 2020 U.S. election by providing political dirt on Joe Biden, a leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination to run against Trump.

“The Republicans have to get tougher and fight. We have some that are great fighters, but they have to get tougher and fight, because the Democrats are trying to hurt the Republican Party before the election,” Trump said.“They don’t have Mitt Romney in their midst. They don’t have people like that. They stick together,” Trump added.
