Mitt Romney on Tuesday changed his Twitter location from Massachusetts to “Holladay, UT,” just hours after Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) announced he would not seek re-election. The move fuels speculation that Romney will mount a bid later this year to replace Hatch in the Senate, which would put a prominent Republican critic of President Trump in Congress. A source close to Romney told The Daily Beast on Tuesday that he will likely delay a formal announcement out of deference to Hatch.
