I was a Republican governor of Pa. I’m voting for Joe Biden. (Tom Ridge)
Philadelphia Inquirer ^ | 09/27/2020 | Tom Ridge - Op Ed

Posted on 09/27/2020 5:35:02 AM PDT by Kid Shelleen

---SNIP--- I actually consider it a point of personal pride that I’m recognized for being among the first Republicans to reject Donald Trump. It was way back in December 2015. I told NBC’s Chuck Todd that day that I could never support Trump. I said then that he was an embarrassment to the Republican Party and our country. I said he belittles, demeans, and ridicules people who disagree with him, and that I’ve never thought that loud, obnoxious, and simpleminded solutions to complex problems are the kind of qualities we want in a president. I believe that earned me my first of several Trump tweets of indignation.

Ridge has been an abortion advocate for a long time.

The EWCLOB globalists - who worship Endless War, Cheap Labor, and Open Borders - hate Trump.

I have come to dislike Tom Ridge so much, that I won’t ever buy “Ruffles” potato chips again! There are many like him in the sewer/swamp. Hating anyone, including President Trump, is a sign of ignorance. Ridge’s voting for Biden is proof.
Washing up or out is difficult to stomach.

I hope that Tom Ridge has had the horrible taste of being a loser for a long time.

The dogma is strong with this one (preborn 8nfant sacrifice to Moloch)

Ridge is probably a bigwig in the child sex-trafficking crowd...

They think if Trump loses, they will get ‘their’ party back.

As Brady said, they ain't getting jack back.

10-15% of their TRUE conservative base will go elsewhere.

18% voted for Perot the first time, even with the Media manipulating the election.

Mensheviks vs. Bolsheviks...Social Democrats vs. NSDAP... Rinos vs. Rats...It's usually the same outcome when finger pointers go up against punchers--defeat. Ridge and his ilk have accidentally helped bring about the excellent result they detest (DJT)...What morons...

As Cromwell said to the Long Parliament and was later repeated to Neville Chamberlain by Leo Amery in 1940: "You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go"

Just "go" Mr. Ridge and take your Rino friends with you...The Rats are waiting with open arms...

I’ve never thought that loud, obnoxious, and simpleminded solutions to complex problems are the kind of qualities we want in a president.


Given his real-world successes, either his solutions are not simpleminded, or the real solutions are actually simple and you’re too obtuse to recognize the obvious.

No surprises here. Big Tommy and little Tommy the commie seem to agree in a remarkable and unusually large number of policy areas.

Tom Ridge was never a real Tepublican. He always leaned the other way, wishy-washy!

More to the point, Big Tommy and Little Tommy share a deep seated fear that the life giving waters of taxpayer dollars will no longer flow into the preferred watering troughs of the K Street cattle barons.

Loser Republicans hungering for reporters to come 'a running' just have to do one thing... stick a knife in the back of a fellow Republican.

And reporters come a running...

McCain made a career out of knifing Republicans for press boys... The Washington Post and New York Times have shrines build to McCain and John Kasich.

Ever notice how there are ZERO democrat 'mavericks'? A democrat who trashes a democrat gets the cold shoulder from the corrupt press.
