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.

Tom Ridge is a worthless drop of nothing, flying into the face of a pro-Trump volcano who thinks HE’S going to be the one to bring our great President down - because, you know, he really knows better than us.

All great men have a plethora of mediocrities trying to bring them down. To most great men, these mediocrities are no more annoying than a cloud of gnats in a smelly swamp.

Hey Bozo, if you vote for Biden you’re NOT a republican.

You’re just a liar.

Ridge was a PTSD POS in 2016, and he still is!

How much are the ChiComs paying him to be a PTSD POS?

Ridge must have plotzed when he saw the huge crowd President Trump attracted in PA.

Jealousy is a lousy fault to have.

Seems only fair. Earned is a good choice of words to describe one so judgmental for a Republican elected official.

Remember, folks, whether a radical D or an establishment R, their interests are not your nterests. And you never see it more openly than in their hatred of Trump.

Guess what Tom, I’m just a nobody from flyover country and I will crawl over miles of broken glass to cancel your vote.

It must really damage your ego to be nullified by a nobody but I’m loving doing the honors.

It’s a point of personal pride to recognize what an idiot Tom Ridge is. There’s been 3+ years of major accomplishments and this guy is still suffering from TDS. What’s wrong with our side?

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