Harry Reid is physically incapable of not being an awful person.
Harry Reid on Romney: "somebody I had respect for. I have none anymore.” https://t.co/58NKPj7FeL

In response to Romney’s willingness to meet with Trump, presumably about a potential secretary of state gig, Reid told the Huffington Post:
“This is man who came out big-time against Trump. Oh, the things he said about Trump. Well, that’s great, that’s wonderful,” Reid said. “Either he wasn’t telling the truth, or he’s a person with no character. After having said that, to go and do homage to this guy he said awful things about, I don’t think that shows much character.”
“Mitt Romney is somebody I had respect for,” Reid said, in a somewhat dubious assertion. “I have none anymore.”
In what universe did Reid ever show Romney an ounce of respect?
@samsteinhp respects him my ass. Reid accused Romney of not paying taxes. When asked if he'd apologize he said " we won." What a jagoff.

Romney had some choice words of his own for scumbag Reid:

That must’ve felt good.
Good.
Note, Democrats: Reid is the sole reason you can't filibuster Trump's nominees. https://t.co/6xUyk1Wwym

Have been waiting four years for exactly this response from @MittRomney to despicable Harry Reid. Good riddance, indeed. https://t.co/aE1ljZPPzQ
