Susan Collins of Maine Says She Will Not Vote for Donald Trump
Ms. Collins revealed her decision in an opinion column for The Washington Post published Monday evening, saying that Mr. Trump’s proclivity for bullying and invective made it impossible for her to support him. She said she believed having Mr. Trump as president would make “an already perilous world” even more dangerous.
.. Faulting Mr. Trump for a “constant stream of cruel comments and his inability to admit error or apologize,” Ms. Collins specifically mentioned his attacks on Gonzalo P. Curiel, a federal judge born in Indiana whom Mr. Trump derided for his “Mexican heritage”; Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the parents of a slain soldier; and a New York Times reporter whom Mr. Trump seemed to mock for a physical disability.
