Conservative group Club for Growth is putting out an attack ad against Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) that accuses the senator of being in cahoots with Democrats to take down President Donald Trump.

“Slick. Slippery. Stealthy,” the ad’s narrator says over images of Romney with sunglasses superimposed on his face. “Mitt Romney had us fooled.”
