Rep. George Santos of New York and Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah had a tense exchange moments before the State of the Union address, in which Romney told Santos that he didn't belong in the Capitol.
Romney walked into the House chamber Tuesday night with other senators to take his seat ahead of the speech as Santos stood alongside the aisle near his own seat.
"He shouldn't be in Congress," Romney added."And they're going to go through the process and hopefully get him out. But he shouldn't be there and if he had any shame at all, he wouldn't be there."
