Trump 'makes me fear for the ultimate well-being of the country,' says Libertarian Bill Weld
Bill Weld, the Libertarian vice presidential nominee, explicitly warned Tuesday against the dangers of a Donald Trump presidency in a message aimed at voters torn between the two major parties’ nominees.
The Republican nominee, he warned, would not be able to stand up to the pressure and criticism that comes with the Oval Office job "without becoming unhinged and unable to perform competently the duties of his office.”
The former Massachusetts governor and former Republican stopped well short of endorsing Democrat Hillary Clinton. Weld is running with
Gary Johnson, a former governor of New Mexico, and their third-party bid is drawing low single digits in the polls.
Earlier this month, Weld announced that his goal for the remaining days of the election was to deny Trump the White House and then to help rebuild the Republican Party in the aftermath.
On Tuesday, at a press conference in Boston, Weld effectively acknowledged that he and Johnson would not win on Nov. 8. He said third parties typically face long odds because they fail to meet the criteria to participate in candidates' debates.
“Against that backdrop, I would like to address myself to all those in the electorate who remain torn between two so-called major party candidates whom they cannot enthusiastically support,” Weld said.
“I’m speaking particularly to those Republicans who feel that our president should exhibit commonly accepted standards of decency and discipline.”
Weld said Trump is unstable, has run a grievance campaign, sees those who look or speak differently than he does as enemies, and has proved himself incapable of handling criticism.
All this makes Trump different from other politicians with whom he may have had political differences with in the past, Weld said.
“Not in my lifetime … has there been a candidate for president who actually makes me fear for the ultimate well-being of the country, a candidate who might in fact put at risk the solid foundation of America that allows us to endure even ill-advised policies and the normal ebb and flow of politics,” Weld said.
They gave him much more publicity than the gave to the others combined,publicity for which Trump spent almost nothing compared to what he received in terms of money!! Now it's amusing to see how biased they are towards Hillary & trying to help her campaign by attacking him.
