evidence: Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) criticized former President Donald Trump on Tuesday for spreading falsehoods about immigrants and the federal government’s response to devastating Hurricane Helene. [...] Still, despite being one of Trump’s biggest GOP critics, Romney stopped just short on Tuesday of offering an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris’ Democratic presidential bid, declining to join the likes of former GOP Reps. Liz Cheney (Wyoming) and Adam Kinzinger (Illinois). "I’ve made it very clear I don’t want Trump to be the next president of the U.S., and you’re going to have to do the very difficult calculation of what that would mean," Romney told a student who asked him what was stopping him from backing Harris.
