WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump tweeted his reaction to Utah Senator Mitt Romney's negative test for the coronavirus.

Romney is self-isolating in Utah after potentially being exposed to the virus by Kentucky Senator Rand Paul who tested positive for COVID-19.

In the president's tweet he said, "This is really great news! I am so happy I can barely speak. He may have been a terrible presidential candidate and an even worse U.S. Senator, but he is a RINO, and I like him a lot!"

"RINO" is an acronym for "Republican In Name Only."

The president may have used a bit of sarcasm.

Senator Romney broke ranks with republicans in February and voted to impeach the president.
