Trump Is So Toxic That Even Members Of His Own Party Would Rather Vote Hillary

Mike Treiser, a former Mitt Romney staffer, said that “in the face of bigotry, hatred, violence, and small-mindedness, this time, I’m with her.”

As conservative writer Ben Howe put it, “I am a fiscal conservative and I am a social conservative. That will not change. But I will not vote for an egomaniacal authoritarian. Nope.”

Other Republicans haven’t gone as far as endorsing Clinton, but have said they can’t support Trump either. Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) is one of them. He’s planning to choose a write in candidate instead.

Fine by me if some Republicans sit out the election, vote for Secretary Clinton or write in a third candidate. As long as it doesn't help Mr. Trump, they can do whatever they damn please.
