Romneys and Clintons to Attend NYC Lunch After Mitt’s Attack on Hillary
Published at
/AFP/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — The Romneys and the Clintons could meet sooner than in 2016. Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston confirms to ABC News that the two couples are expected to attend a New York City lunch together Friday to benefit the Ann Romney Center for Neurological Disorders.
Chelsea Clinton’s husband Marc Mezvinsky is on the board of the center.
The lunch was first reported by The New York Times.
The Times points out the lunch will now be quite awkward after Romney went on the attack against Clinton Wednesday night in his speech to Mississippi State University.
In his speech, he said, “Secretary of State Hillary Clinton cluelessly pressed a reset button for Russia, which smiled and then invaded Ukraine, a sovereign nation,” Romney said. He also went after Clinton on the economy and he joked about his own wealth by also jabbing Clinton: “I’m not even thinking about the speaking fees I can earn,” Romney said. “As you no doubt heard, I’m already rich.”
