The parade of GOP leaders appearing outside the New York City courthouse where former President Donald Trump is on trial is "a little embarrassing," Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, said Wednesday.
"I think it’s a little demeaning to show up in front of a courthouse particularly one where we’re talking about an allegation of paying a porn star," Romney told reporters before a Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting in Washington.
The visitors have included Sens Rick Scott, R-Fla. and J.D. Vance, R-Ohio; Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla.; House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.; North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
"Really very difficult to watch," Romney said of the courthouse visits. "There is a level of dignity and decorum that you expect from people who are running for the highest station in the land, and going out and prostrating themselves in front of the public to try and apparently curry favor with the person whose our nominee, it’s a little embarrassing."

I believe we can dream about people who have integrity even though we may not agree with many things they stand for. Although he appeared to look at me as an anomaly in the dream he did listen to what I had to say. If we remain closed to the views of others how will we ever see beyond our own limitations and self styled views of reality? The more we can listen to others with understanding, the more we can transcend the boundaries of our own limiting walls of consciousness.
