I don't mean to imply that Mitt Romney is a good guy, but along with a handful of other Republican politicians he does occasionally say things that you wouldn't normally expect to hear from their party:
Two Republican members of Congress participated in a white nationalists conference. Mitt Romney called them morons.
Romney on Sunday called racist views evil.
Theres no place in either political party for this white nationalism or racism. Its simply wrong, Romney told Bash. He added: Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar I dont know them, but Im reminded of that old line from the Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid movie where one character says, Morons. Ive got morons on my team.
Here's the quote Romney was referring to but I think this movie quote is much more appropriate.
