Henry Paulson, a Republican who was U.S. Treasury secretary during the 2008 financial meltdown, on Friday called a Donald Trump presidency “unthinkable” and said he will vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Paulson joins a growing list of establishment Republicans who say they will not cast a ballot in the Nov. 8 election for Trump, the party’s presumptive nominee and a political neophyte whose populist rhetoric runs counter to many long-held Republican principles. […]
“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,” he said.
Paulson accused Trump, who has touted his business acumen as a real estate developer during his campaign, of taking “imprudent risk” and then disavowing his debts when ventures fail. …

They must’ve gotten it from Wikipedia.
The republicans who would abandon the country and vote for hillary, are selfish sobs..
who don’t give a damn about anyone or anything but themselves and are ignorant/clueless as to what this country would look like under that regime, with it already in full gear from obama...
elitists who need to be made as common as they think the rest of us are.
The guy that spearheaded the bailout that led to the tea party movement.
Well gee I sure trust his judgement. He did so well keeping our economy strong. /s
I’m in Colorado and went unaffiliated in 2007 when it became apparent the R party had no interest in fiscal responsibility.
C’mon in, the water’s fine. It’s runoff time.
OMG. That takes the cake.
Donald Trump has all the right enemies.
Paulson should be in prison along with Barney Frank and many others.
paulson...yet another has-been dottering old fool. Go home and drool, you putz. Voting for hillary??? Definitely you hate Free America and the Constitution.
Coming from a guy who was largely responsible for the financial crisis that handed the 2008 election to Obama, I count this as a huge endorsement for Donald Trump. This guy is the insider’s insider on Wall Street, and represents the corrupt and unholy alliance between Wall Street and Washington. I not only don’t care what he says, I want the opposite of what he wants.
Pat Paulson.
It’s a damned HITLER-Y CLINTON Presidency that is
UNTHINKABLE to us “little” people! (Our son will be
killing Paulson’s vote.) Me & Fang have already
committed to vaporizing two bigshot votes, Sanders &
some other guy.
Well, there's an endorsement that's as good as any boat anchor.
Another globalist watching his bizarre plans circling the drain. Their One World no borders dream is seeing the backlash of people becoming aware of their plan and rejecting it completely.
Ceding control of ones life to a unseen entity is not freedom and it is becoming apparent to people and to the disappointment of the elite.
$$$$$$!!!!!
The elites want us to open our communities to an invasion of illegal immigrants yet they live in gated communities and well protected homes.
That’s the GOP for you.
Henry Paulson:
Obama stooge, looter of the US treasury, and Tax Cheat extraordinaire.
Yep, it is coming down to the people vs the elitists. Are we free men or cattle to be herded by the likes of Clinton for her own good?
