Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney respond to Trump's peaceful transfer of power remarks
Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, called President Trump's answer to a question about the peaceful transfer of power regarding the 2020 election "unthinkable and unacceptable," while Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell emphasized that "there will be an orderly transition just as there has been every four years since 1792."
McConnell insisted that Republicans are not rejecting the importance of a peaceful transfer of power.
"The winner of the November 3rd election will be inaugurated on January 20th," he wrote on Twitter on Thursday. "There will be an orderly transition just as there has been every four years since 1792."
Meanwhile, Romney blasted Trump's remarks on Wednesday by making a comparison to Belarus, where citizens are protesting the reelection of President Alexander Lukashenko, which the opposing parties say was rigged.
