Republican Elector Vows To Vote Against Donald Trump

December 6, 2016 by Paul Spoerry 3 Comments



Why I Will Not Cast My Electoral Vote for Donald Trump
The Electoral College is supposed to determine if a candidate is qualified to be president. Mr. Trump has not met its standards.

In an op-ed published Monday in The New York Times, Christopher Suprun, a paramedic and first responder to the Pentagon on Sept. 11, laid out a lengthy list of concerns about Trump. He called on fellow electors to “do their job” and unify around an “honorable and qualified” alternative.

He argues that the Electoral College is tasked with ensuring candidates are “qualified, not engaged in demagogy, and independent from foreign influence.” Trump, he said, does not meet these standards, and should therefore be rejected from the White House.

“Mr. Trump lacks the foreign policy experience and demeanor needed to be commander in chief … Mr. Trump urged violence against protesters at his rallies during the campaign. He speaks of retribution against his critics.”

Full op-ed in the link…

    Yeah. No breath holding here either…. I considered grabbing a pussy though since apparently that's ok.
