Republican Official Who Was 'Threatened' By Trump Won't Rule Out Voting For Him Again - Ring of Fire



Brad Raffensperger, the Republican Secretary of State in Georgia, says that he will not rule out voting for Donald Trump again in 2024 if he is the Republican nominee. Raffensperger is the official who Trump told to "go find the votes" in Georgia, and has repeatedly received death threats from crazed Trump supporters for not overturning the election to help Trump. In spite of all of this, and the fact that he says he felt that Trump "threatened" him, he still can't bring himself to say that he won't support him in 2024. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

if he is the nominee. They don't get it -- if Trump is ever elected prez again, he will stomp the life out of them.

a corrupt Republican than an honest Democrat. At least that’s his public stance. We’ll never know how he actually votes.

He should write one on "Principles and Dignity" but just to read it himself, he has no morals to write a book for publishing on any of it, including "Integrity".

What a lack of dignity and principles from these GOPers...They are truly disgusting and despicable, or like a great woman said "deplorable".

It’s worked for them a long time. Until it stops working they’ll never change.

is a powerful emotion that can drive us to greatness. With hope we can put aside our fears of failure and see a better future for all of us. But, I hold out none of it to believe the Republican Party is salvageable in any form. It's current iteration is the result of the past influence of small minded, short sighted conservatism and reactionary ideology. The fact that every Republican has, in the past, called TFG every name in the book but, would now lick dog shyt off of his shoes reveals the shallow, empty shells that are Republicans. I don't trust them and I wish the Democratic Leadership would wake the hell up before it's too late. Stop treating Republicans as 'normal'. Maybe the media would follow if they did.
