“Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar, I don’t know them,” Romney said during an appearance on CNN. “I’m reminded of the old line from the Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid movie where one character says, ‘Morons, I have morons on my team.'”

The senator added there is “no place” in either political party for white nationalism or racism, calling it “simply wrong” for elected leaders associated themselves with white nationalists.
