Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) participated in a Georgetown University virtual conversation on American leadership during times of crisis, specifically the coronavirus pandemic. He criticized the government’s initial response to the pandemic, saying he thought the “world was surprised” at the U.S. response and later said, “the willingness of the federal government to step in and coordinate everything from PPE to testing to repair of our hospital systems and so forth…none of those things really stood out as being great moments in American leadership.” He later said he believed it was “likely” President Trump would be re-elected and warned that the U.S. should not pull away from global affairs, making room for China’s influence to dominate the global stage. close
