Bombs dropped!
https://www.washingtonpost.com/o…
Henry Paulson, former Treasury Secretary under George W Bush and former CEO of Goldman Sachs writes a letter to Republicans, urging them to vote "country over party".
The writing is great, but if you want the TLDR version: he says that:
• Trump is actually not great at business
• Trump would be terrible for the economy
• Trump doesn't understand trade deals
• Trump's policies would destroy the job marketYou may not like this guy, but we can all agree that he is in a better position to make these claims than any of us.
His final paragraph:
"When it comes to the presidency, I will not vote for Donald Trump. I will not cast a write-in vote. I’ll be voting for Hillary Clinton, with the hope that she can bring Americans together to do the things necessary to strengthen our economy, our environment and our place in the world. To my Republican friends: I know I’m not alone."

- I'm only one person but if over all people had their heads together is not accept this at all n shut everything down by not going to work, banning together.yurimon
- everyone till it gets fixed. simple. but everyone is on some other distraction crap.yurimon
- Lulz. Great idea, best of luck with sorting that out by November.********
- I guess the big difference between you and Paulson (aside from education, experience) is that he lives in the real world with the rest of us.********
- good luck with nothing happening and playing along while politics ignores you. seems it thats the educated way nowa daysyurimon
- You forever complain, but contribute nothing. Typical. Please, explain how your idea of a general strike would accomplish anything. I need a good laugh.********
- Im not complaining. but please post another naive comment like you are writing a report for a 10th grade social studies class. #forever15yurimon

- So your idea is an Occupy-type thing. Please do go on.********

- LOL, Henry Paulson is one of the most corrupt figures in the world. He's almost as corrupt in Hilary but he's never been caught, read up on him.robotron3k
- ^ tons of articles on him https://www.wsws.org…robotron3k
- As I said, "you may not like the guy" but the fact that he wrote in the Post calling on Repubs to vote Clinton is still a very big deal.********
- Even if he is "corrupt" as you put it, he stands to gain very little from publicly supporting Hillary.********
- lol @ yuri telling us to "ban together" -- amen my brothasarahfailin
