  1. BUT will also not vote for Biden. So a vote for Trump.

  3. The cowardly lady that singlehandedly doomed SCOTUS and possibly democracy, pretends to be brave.

  7. So she’ll surely be labeled a RINO and run out of town like anyone who doesn’t completely fall in line? 

  8. Cut the shit guys and gals. Any and every republican who comes out saying they won’t vote for him will draw some voters with them.

    The issue isn’t that Trump’s a strong candidate…it’s that Biden doesn’t have a ton of enthusiasm behind him to bring out amazing turnout.

    The more of these Republicans that siphon off votes from trump the better. Quit looking at the optics from the maga cult perspective and think about the moderates that will be influenced by someone like her. Maga cultists are too far gone. Let the Republicans pull away those voters who aren’t his base and focus our energy on mobilizing our own to vote.

    This only helps Biden. Even if she doesn’t vote for him. Saying she won’t vote for trump gives permission to her voters to go elsewhere.

    Multiple fronts. Play chess not checkers.

  9. From the thumbnail image I initially thought that was Jackie Chan.

  16. She intends to write in Haley, who said she’d pardon Trump. So basically just as despicable anyway.

  19. Reasonable to have doubt but I think people should be more welcoming of this stance so other feel comfortable with it.

  20. It doesn’t matter if she’s lying or not tbh, she’s one vote. But the fact of the matter is that this has the chance to influence at least a few votes away from Trump and if she’s willing to do that she’s at least somewhat against Trump.

  21. Personally, I don’t vote for losers who get shot. I prefer candidates that don’t get shot.

  23. She will instead vote for every single one of his raving lunatic appointees to life long federal court positions.

  24. I’m sure she will change her mind in November and say he has REALLY learned his lesson this time…

  26. Ok, and the point? Not all republicans like trump. Just like not all democrats like Biden.

  27. “I like people who don’t get shot in the ear”

  28. She’s a big liar who has lied and lied and lied. So this is nothing. Unless you think she’s telling the truth, but that’s on you.
