Is Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, ready for another presidential run in 2020?
One America News reporter Jack Posobiec is reporting that Mitt Romney is making calls behind the curtain to potential donors.

If true, it’d be just another sign that Romney is gearing up for a primary challenge against President Donald Trump.
The failed former presidential candidate has amplified his attacks on Trump in the media recently – joining a small number of GOP members who’ve turned on the administration for its handling of Ukraine affairs.
“By all appearances,” Romney said, “the President’s brazen and unprecedented appeal to China and to Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden is wrong and appalling.”
“When the only American citizen President Trump singles out for China’s investigation is his political opponent in the midst of the Democratic nomination process, it strains credulity to suggest that it is anything other than politically motivated.”

Trump launched an explosive attack at Romney only a day later.
“He’s a pompous a**,” Trump wrote about Romney, “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 didn’t give it to him).”
Mitt 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 didn’t give it to him). He is so bad for R’s!

Romney has seemingly come full circle, rekindling his “Never Trump” days just before the 2016 election.
Kind of like former White House Director of Communications Anthony Scaramucci.
Scaramucci conveniently tweeted out a campaign-esque statement for Romney just hours later, which teased a hypothetical 2020 run.
Mitt’s Decency over Trump’s Indecency.
Mitt’s Patriotism over Trump’s Facsism.
Mitt’s Democracy over Trump’s Dictatorship.
Mitt’s Grace over Trump’s Disgrace.
Mitt over Trump in 2020If he ran he would win@MittRomney over the traitor @realDonaldTrump
