Mitt Romney, the Republican junior senator from Utah, long has been at odds with President Trump. He was the only Republican senator to convict in both impeachment trials. But he concedes that Trump “has by far the largest voice and a big impact in my party” and that he probably would win the 2024 GOP presidential nomination if he runs. “Will President Trump continue to play a role in my party? I’m sure he will, he has by far the largest voice and a big impact in my party,” Romney said Wednesday at a New York Times DealBook virtual event reported by the Washington Examiner. “I don’t know about his family members, whether they intend to do that. But I expect he will continue playing a role. I don’t know if he’ll run in 2024 or not, but if he does, I’m pretty sure he will win the nomination.
