Romney was among seven Republican senators who joined Democrats in voting in favor of convicting Trump in his second impeachment trial.
WASHINGTON — Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, who voted in favor of convicting former President Donald Trump in his second impeachment trial, said Tuesday that Trump would likely beat the GOP field if he decides to run in the 2024 presidential election.
