Charlie Copeland isn’t an idiot. He knows Donald Trump has no business being the President of the United States. He knows the full implications of a Trump presidency. However, Charlie Copeland is a craven coward. That’s why he wants to pretend that he will be voting for Trump and not Clinton.
Unlike Republicans like Ken Grant and Mike Stafford, who have the guts to put the country ahead of their party, Copeland is a cowering chickenshit. Meekly continuing to play to the unhinged racists and lunatics who comprise the bulk of the DEGOP’s current membership. Here is his statement:
“Hillary Clinton deserves to be congratulated on making history this evening. But the kudos stop there.
“There is no amount of colored bunting, balloons or bravado that can mask what we witnessed in Philadelphia tonight. Hillary Clinton has firmly aligned herself with the extreme ‘progressive’ wing of the Democratic Party. Moderate Democrats no longer have a home in Hillary Clinton’s Democratic Party, and their belief in limited government, a strong foreign policy, and individual freedom has been pushed to the wayside with them.
“Americans have never trusted Hillary Clinton and they won’t start tonight.”
I’d love to hear Mike Castle’s thoughts on this election. I doubt we will, but it would be nice for Castle to rescue a little bit of his dignity by denouncing Trump.
