On NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Romney said it was legitimate for President Donald Trump to pursue any irregularities in the Nov. 3 vote. “But if, as expected, those things don’t change the outcome, why, he will accept the inevitable,” Romney added.

“I’m more concerned about the language that’s used” in describing those challenges, since inflammatory rhetoric can be seized upon by authoritarians around the world, he said.

“It’s important to not use language that could encourage a course of history that’s very, very unfortunate,” Romney said.

Romney has long been a vocal critic of Donald Trump, and the President’s seeming loss in the 2020 election could reinvigorate Romney’s disdain.
