YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThere are some decent Republicans left in the country. Susan Collins from Maine has written a letter condemning Donald Trump. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Maine Sen. Susan Collins is the latest high-profile Republican to announce she cannot support her party's presidential nominee this fall.
"I will not be voting for Donald Trump for president," the centrist GOP lawmaker wrote in a Washington Post op-ed. "This is not a decision I make lightly, for I am a lifelong Republican. But Donald Trump does not reflect historical Republican values nor the inclusive approach to governing that is critical to healing the divisions in our country."
The four-term senator has long been critical of Trump, saying after his attack on a federal judge of Mexican heritage that comments like those made it "very difficult" for her to support the Republican nominee.
In the Post, she writes that she had hoped Trump would temper his language and instead focus his fire on Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. Instead, Collins argues, he's only gotten worse, pointing to his most recent offense of attacking the Gold Star parents of the late Army Capt. Humayun Khan after they spoke out against him at the Democratic National Convention over his proposals to ban some Muslims from entering the U.S.”*
