Elector: ‘As a Christian, I came to the conclusion that Mr. Trump is not biblically qualified for that office’
A Texas elector doesn’t like Trump, but is also opposed to Clinton.
Click here for reuse options!Just one elector so far has wavered publicly on supporting Trump.
Texas Republican Art Sisneros says he has reservations about the president-elect, but not because of the national popular vote. He told The Associated Press he won’t vote for Clinton under any circumstance.
“As a Christian, I came to the conclusion that Mr. Trump is not biblically qualified for that office,” he said.
He said he has heard from ecstatic Clinton supporters and even supportive Republicans, but also from outraged Trump backers writing “threatening and vile things.”
Sisneros signed a state party pledge to support the GOP’s standard-bearer, but that was before Trump was the official nominee. He said one of his options is to resign, allowing the state party to choose another elector.

Lame reason but I’ll take it. If Clinton takes Michigan we only need 21 electors to refuse to vote for Trump. The best part is that Trump has 4 weeks to convince electors that he’s unqualified.

Sorry, Jack, but Santa isn’t coming this year.
Jack E Raynbeau November 19th, 2016 at 23:17
Of course not. Santa is a fictional character. Shhhh… don’t tell the republicans. They’re big on mythology.
Jock E Shift November 19th, 2016 at 23:51
As are the “Dream the dream” democrats.
Jack E Raynbeau November 19th, 2016 at 23:56
Weak again. I know you are but what am I?

As opposed to the smash all the dreams Rethuglicans.

On second thought… maybe Trump is Santa. He has a habit of shitting in his Sunday hat.
Red Mann November 20th, 2016 at 02:32
No, but the devil is coming on Jan 20.

Not biblically…not politically…not in any way is the Pu**y Grabber In Chief qualified…

As opposed to the Kenyan in Chief?

You still believe in that fairy tale?
Jack E Raynbeau November 19th, 2016 at 23:33
Weak. This was between Trump and Clinton you silly troll.
Jock E Shift November 19th, 2016 at 23:38
Read crc3’s comment, Richard Cranium.
Jack E Raynbeau November 19th, 2016 at 23:54
crc3 is Richard Cranium? The plot thickens. The cheese becomes a bit more binding.
Jock E Shift November 19th, 2016 at 23:56
My God, you are dense.
Jack E Raynbeau November 20th, 2016 at 00:01
Really? You’re the one replying to me and thinking that crc3 is Richard Cranium. Are you sure that you’re on the proper thread?

That’s deflection Jock. Please stay on topic…or leave.

Sweet Jesus!!! How long are you going to beat that dead horse?
Larry Schmitt November 19th, 2016 at 23:20
There’s no such thing as biblical qualifications for being president.
Jack E Raynbeau November 19th, 2016 at 23:33
Give them time.
Budda November 20th, 2016 at 07:21
my first thoughts also

Maybe this person never heard that there is a separation between church and state? It is a very vague statement and can be interpreted multiple ways…../s

But what if the electors voted in biblical proportions for the popular vote winner?
Clinton 62,391,335 votes (48.0%)
Donnie 61,125,956 votes (46.9%) http://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/president

He should vote for none of the above. If nobody wins it goes to the House to decide where we can hold politicians accountable if tRump is a disaster. tRump fails, then in 2018 the idiot politicians who elected him can get voted out of office.
RandyBastard November 20th, 2016 at 11:36
Making this decision based on what your imaginary friend might think is TOTALLY WRONG. He can vote the way he wants, but we have to stop this BS mixing of religion and government. Our government is mandated by the constitution to be non-religious.
Bunya November 21st, 2016 at 14:31
…And I came to the conclusion that religious beliefs, or lack thereof, shouldn’t even be a consideration when voting for a candidate.
