HE WASN’T, IT WAS A LIE!
Chris Suprun is one of 38 Texas electors. He recently went public with his decision to go against the will of the people of Texas; he will not be honoring his pledge to vote for President Elect, Donald Trump.
Chris Suprun has taken quite a beating on social media by Americans who are outraged at his decision to go rogue. There was even a petition started to have him removed and replaced.
Eyebrows were raised and suspicions grew over what Mr. Suprun’s intentions really are after he penned an op-ed in the New York Times over his decision to be a ‘faithless elector’. Shockingly, his Twitter bio directs media inquiries to P.R. firm, Megaphone Strategies. This P.R. firm represents radical left wing organizations like Black Lives Matter and even reps CNN’s ultra left wing radical, Van Jones.
Now this… For years Chris Suprun has passed himself off as a 9-11 hero first responder. He has even throw the first pitch out at local ballparks.
Now it looks like that was all a lie. He didn’t become a firefighter until OCTOBER 2001. WFAA reported:
The Republican elector who has gotten national attention for refusing to vote for Donald Trump at the Electoral College on Dec. 19 was apparently not a first responder on September 11, 2001 as he has stated for years and has a questionable career history, according to an investigation by WFAA.
Chris Suprun, 42, portrays himself as a heroic firefighter who was among the first on the scene after the third plane flew into the Pentagon on 9/11.
In a heavily-publicized editorial this month for the New York Times, Suprun stated that as a member of the Electoral College he will not cast his ballot for Trump because the president-elect “shows daily he is not qualified for the office.”
Suprun, a Dallas resident for more than a decade, even used his résumé to establish credibility in the Times piece, writing in the second paragraph: “Fifteen years ago, as a firefighter, I was part of the response to the Sept. 11 attacks against our nation.”
He has founded a nonprofit called Never Forget and state records show he is a licensed paramedic — but much of the rest of résumé, publicly available on LinkedIn, is questionable.
In addition, on at least two occasions over the last couple years at crowded Major League Baseball games, Suprun has been introduced as a 9/11 veteran before throwing out first pitches.
“He claimed to be a first responder with the Manassas Park [Virginia] Fire Department on September 11, 2001 and personally told us stories ‘I was fighting fire that day at the Pentagon.’ No, I was on a medic unit that day at the Pentagon and you make a phone call to Manassas Park and you find out that he wasn’t even employed there until October 2001,” said a first responder who knows Suprun and only agreed to speak about him if his identity was concealed.
The City of Manassas Park confirmed to WFAA that it hired Suprun on October 10, 2001, one month after the 9/11 attacks.
Beating on social media, not MSM
He has a “duty” to represent the will of the electorate. A man who will not do his duty has no honor...

Sounds like ore than enough reason to replace him prior to the vote.
Rogue One is set to make millions of dollars this month.
I’d still like to know what moron, or morons, thought it was a good idea to make him a republican elector.
I predicted this. He immediately struck me as a con man.
Rush is tearing this bum a new one right now. He’s on fire this AM.
What does he ACTUALLY do to make a living now?????......is he on some type of welfare???..Does he own anything???....ENQUIRING minds want to know....
Another anti-fake news elector...
Democrats are certifiable tin foil hatted nut cases
Finally! Michelle Obama is also coming in for a deserved pummeling.
It will be delicious watching her grump her way through Inauguration Day.
I’m only giving 50/50 odds that the TV cameras will carry Trump’s speech instead of a long lingering shot of the Obama helicopter flying away...possibly with some reporters hanging onto it.
NY Times now in the category of fake but true. I wonder if they would publish an editorial if I wrote one :)
Cant this bozo be replaced?
Geez what a slim ball. He is being exposed as a fake at exactly the right time. This is going to be good. I need more popcorn.
A fringe benefit about all the publicity this creep is getting is it will discourage other potential traitors. I hope he can be charged with fraud. Hmmmm...if his application for being a delegate includes fraud, does it disqualify him?
Given the stress test those buttons are getting - I wonder when the last time Mr. Hero passed a CPAT test.
Pretty much exemplifies how lax the fitness requirements for “professional” L.I.F.E.Rs riding the Civil Service Gravy Train seem to be.
FAIL.
