There goes another one.

Hank Paulson, chairman of the Paulson Institute and a former Treasury secretary in George W. Bush’s administration, will neither vote for Donald Trump in November nor abstain, he wrote in an op-ed published Friday in The Washington Post.

“I’ll be voting for Hillary Clinton with the hope that she can bring Americans together to do the things necessary to strengthen our economy, our environment and our place in the world,” Paulson wrote. “To my Republican friends: I know I’m not alone.”

Paulson is the latest George W. Bush administration official to not only reject the Republican Party’s presumptive presidential nominee, but to declare support for Clinton. Former Bush Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage told POLITICO last week he would vote for Clinton.

The fact that you even have to tell them anything is ridiculous.

We knew Paulson was a democrat from the beginning, he was an awful Treasury Sec. Bush had a succession of duds in the position, one of the worst aspects of his administration.

Rumsfled said he’s voting for Trump.

It comes down to voting for Washington or voting for America. It really is that simple.

I just got home from a tour of Wisconsin. For vacation, my wife and I pick a state and go every where interesting in that state. We always hit any river cities because they generally have historic downtown’s with lodging and eats. Short story, long, we saw Trump signs everywhere in Wisconsin. Perhaps 2 dozen per day driving the Grand River Road and other rural roads. Not a Clinton or Bernie sign to be seen. When we got to Madison, we did see one Hillary sign and a numerous Bernie bumper stickers. There was one kid stumping for Bernie on State Street in Madison. I asked him if was a math or economics major. I am sure it will shock to learn he was not.

Wisconsin would be a big get for Trump. Hillary won’t win Wisconsin without the students in Madison turning out big, and I didn’t see the support - yet.

I'm surprised Paul O'Neill didn't endorse Hilderbeast first. He's an even bigger RINO turd than Paulson and has spent most of his time as ex-Treasury Secretary badmouthing the guy who appointed him.

It should not be a fear. We need to organize against them. The Republican Party cannot win without us in most of the states.Most people that vote Republican do so because the Democrats are so corrupt. We happen to vote for what we think is the lesser of evils. We should go after the Ryans in Politics and the Wills in the media. America has become a nation of lazy,worthless idiots and I truly mean that.
