Exclusive: Armitage to back Clinton over Trump
Politico ^ | Michael Crowley

Posted on 06/16/2016 10:41:18 AM PDT by ErikJohnsky

Richard Armitage, the deputy secretary of state under George W. Bush, says he will vote for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, in one of the most dramatic signs yet that Republican national security elites are rejecting their party’s presumptive nominee. Armitage, a retired Navy officer who also served as an assistant secretary of defense under Ronald Reagan, is thought by Clinton aides to be the highest ranking former GOP national security official to openly support Clinton over Trump.

These people thrive on providing sacrificial American Janissary's to the Muslim world. As far as I am concerned, they can go do something to themselves which is anatomically impossible.

A Bushite, no surprise. The Bushites, open-borders advocates, and neo-con artists should all go back to their spiritual home, the democrat party.

They won’t come out with a full endorsement of Hillary, because that would compromise the charade of “choice” within uniparty, but behind the scenes the Bushes and their allies will be quietly pulling strings to help elect Hillary. Armitage is just saying out loud what most of the Bush team are thinking.

This the guy who really did out Valerie Plame and caused Scooter Libby to be jailed.

The Neocons have no loyalty to America, they are exactly what they have been accused of over years.

Armitage, like his boss Colin Powell is a leftist operative. I don’t think a fly would land on that POS.

Yeah, but he worked under Reagan.

What a jerk.

Sometimes i think some who worked for Reagan were just waiting for Bush to get into office so they could work for him.

If Trump doesn’t win this time, Republican gross roots should make sure never a neocon will be elected to office at any level and anytime.

When are we going to hear about the Bush’s choosing Clinton over Trump? After all the Bush’s greased the skids for the first Clinton and Obama and 28 years of unconstitutional Leftist government expansion and activity. The Bushes and much of the GOP are simply warmed-over DNC folks.

And once again, the Bush’s demonstrate that they are an equal party to the destruction of the nation that has occurred since Reagan left office.

Why am I not surprised? It seems the Bush administrations were both filled with these Democrat leaning bastards.

This man needs to be assaulted and beaten down for being a traitor. As far as i'm concerned, he's scum.

‘Yeah, but he worked under Reagan.’

You’re right, I thought the name looked familiar. Unfortunately Reagan had too many Bush Republicans working for him, beginning with his VP. What a shame he didn’t go with his instincts and take Paul Laxalt.
