If the phrase 'aid and comfort' sounds familiar, that's because it's the same language used to describe a form of treason. That's how Emery County Republicans describe Mitt Romney's actions toward Democrats in a proposed censure of the U.S. senator.
Emery County Republicans will decide whether or not to censure Sen. Mitt Romney at Thursday’s GOP county convention.
The censure resolution on Thursday evening’s agenda levels several harsh criticisms of Romney. It accuses him of giving “aid and comfort to the Democratic party” for voting to convict Trump during his first impeachment trial. Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for abuse of power and obstructing Congress as part of a scheme to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to announce an investigation into Joe Biden.
