Mitt Romney (R-Utah) is frustrating some fellow GOP senators for his repeated attacks on Republican President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause one election didnt turn out the way that Mitt wanted it to turn out, hes critical of the president,\u201d Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/senate\/467217-gop-senators-frustrated-with-romney-jabs-at-trump\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">told The Hill<\/a>. \u201cSo, Im not pleased with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIts awfully easy to sit in the stands and be critical of the people on the field,\u201d Sen. David Purdue said of Romneys statements and speeches criticizing Trump for various actions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThats his own opinion. I disagree with it strongly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump said during a cabinet meeting on Monday that Romneys fellow Republican members of Congress arent helping him enough against the House Democrats impeachment inquiry and noted Romney by name as an example of his opposition.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats, Trump said, \u201care vicious and they stick together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey dont have Mitt Romney in their midst. They dont have people like that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Trump and Romney have gone back and forth multiple times, including a spat that partially unfolded over Twitter earlier this month. Trump tweeted: \u201cMitt Romney never knew how to win. He is a pompous ass who has been fighting me from the beginning, except when he begged me for my endorsement for his Senate run (I gave it to him), and when he begged me to be Secretary of State (I didnt give it to him). He is so bad for Rs!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked if Romney was undercutting the president, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) told The Hill: \u201cHes not helping him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other senators have gone on record criticizing Romney, including Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSenator Romney has gone down the same path as the Democrats like [House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi,\u201d Scott said during a late September appearance on Fox Business. \u201cHe thinks the worst of the president instead of the best, before he ever gets all the facts. \u201d<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/img.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/uploads\/2019\/02\/12\/Scott-1095440048-1200x800.jpg\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/themes\/eet\/images\/white.png\" \/><figcaption><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/uploads\/2019\/02\/12\/Scott-1095440048-1200x800.jpg\" \/><\/figcaption><\/a> Sen.
