Mitt Romney's grandson dressed as 'Pierre Delecto' for Halloween
What's scarier than the internet?
That's apparently what Sen. Mitt Romney's (R-Utah) grandson was thinking when he chose his Halloween costume this year. Thomas Romney transposed Romney's now-exposed Twitter alter-ego "Pierre Delecto" into a mysterious, mustachioed man with a nametag to make the joke clear. Romney seemed pleased with the costume, but also threatened to kick Thomas out of his will for it.
Thomas Romney's costume comes from his grandfather's secret Twitter account where he occasionally defended himself and liked some criticisms of President Trump. Romney hinted at having a private account in an Atlantic profile, and Slate's Ashley Feinberg dug it up not long after.
