Romney campaigned for the [[U.S. Senate]] seat in [[Utah]] by promising to support President [[Donald Trump]], but after Romney was elected he proceeded to do the opposite and even voted to remove Trump from office in the scam [[impeachment and removal|impeachment]] of him by [[Democrat]]s.  Romney constantly engages in a never-ending series of scurrilous criticisms of Trump, much as fellow [[Mormon]] Senator [[Jeff Flake]] did until public disapproval of his positions forced him to forgo running for reelection.

Romney was defeated for the GOP nomination for president in 2008, by [[John McCain]]. In 1994 – a year of landslide victories for Republicans – Mitt Romney came up short in challenging incumbent Senator [[Ted Kennedy]] of Massachusetts, the same seat that Republican [[Scott Brown]] won after Kennedy died. In 2018, Romney ran for Utah's Senate seat when he could have run again for Massachusetts' seat, narrowing the GOP's opportunity to expand its Senate majority.<ref name="MA,UT2018"/>
