Trump knocks Romney as 'Democrat secret asset' in new video

President Trump tore into Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) in a new video posted to Twitter that accuses the Utah Republican of trying “to infiltrate Trump’s administration as secretary of State” after the 2016 election.

The narrator in the 60-second video says that Romney's "cover's blown, exposed by news reports as a Democrat secret asset.” The clip then shows media coverage of Romney’s failed 2012 presidential bid Trump’s victory four years later.
