CNN political commentator and Democratic strategist David Axelrod on Saturday hit back at President Trump for his tweets attacking Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah).
Trump mocked Romney for his 2012 electoral loss and called the GOP senator a “pompous ‘ass'” after he spoke out Friday against Trump’s calls for foreign powers to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a chief political rival and leading Democratic presidential candidate.
“This is such a telling Tweet,” Axelrod tweeted. “Romney ‘never knew how to win.’ Meaning, he didn’t enlist other countries to subvert our election on his behalf. @realDonaldTrump absolutely believes that anyone who fails to do ANYTHING to get what they want is a sucker.”
