[quote=Anonymous]More Republicans speaking out against Trump.

[quote]One of Hollywood’s leading Republicans is dumping Trump. Harry Sloan, CEO of Global Eagle Acquisition Corp. and former CEO of MGM, says that he’s so worried about Donald Trump’s abilities that he’s now backing Hillary Clinton for president.

“I was an active and proud supporter of John McCain, Mitt Romney and John Kasich. And if we had a different Republican presidential candidate this year, I would likely be proudly supporting them,” Sloan said in statement obtained by TheWrap. “But [u]Donald Trump does not embody the values that have made me a lifelong Republican. He is unprepared and temperamentally unfit to be our President[/u].”

Sloan, a prominent Republican, was on the National Finance Committee for McCain’s campaign in 2008, Romney’s in 2012 and Kasich’s in 2016. He was also the California Finance Chair for Romney, and he’s now on the board of directors of the McCain Institute.

[quote]As Donald Trump was dealing with continued fallout from his professed admiration for Russian strongman Vladimir Putin Thursday, Hillary Clinton’s campaign rolled out a list of 15 Pennsylvania Republicans who plan to vote for the Democrat.   “This is a really important moment for everybody in our country, as you have seen by the numbers of Republicans concerned about Trump coming forward and saying, 'this is not acceptable,’” Clinton said in a news conference. [u]“They are willing to put their names out there - people who have never endorsed a Democrat ... because they are so concerned about this man and how totally unqualified he is to be president, and how totally temperamentally unfit he is to be Commander-in-Chief.”[/u] The Pennsylvania Republicans for Hillary include a former Bush Administration official, a former Ford Administration official, and a Republican committeewoman – along with retired military officials, veterans, and business and community leaders.

[quote]Louis Wade Sullivan, the only African-American to serve as a cabinet secretary under former President George H. W. Bush, said Wednesday that he’s crossing party lines to endorse the Democratic nominee for president, Hillary Clinton.

“I’m an American, and I’m concerned about my country,” Sullivan told The Huffington Post. [u]“Though my enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton is somewhat tempered, I certainly believe she is an infinitely better choice for president than Donald Trump.”[/u]   He described himself as a lifelong moderate Republican, with the exception of a vote for John F. Kennedy in 1960. ... [u]"I want to have a president that I can be proud of.”[/u]
