while some GOP officials consider voting for Biden

Donald Trump may be losing the support of members of his own party already, with some GOP officials considering a vote for Joe Biden.

Sooner than expected, growing numbers of big Republican names are debating how transparent to be about their decision not to back his re-election, or may even vote for the presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden.

According to The New York Times, Former President George W. Bush and Senator Mitt Romney won't support Trump's re-election, Jeb Bush isn't sure how he'll vote, and Cindy McCain, the widow of Sen. John McCain, is almost certain to support Biden but is "unsure how public to be about it because one of her sons is eying a run for office."

Former Republican leaders like the former Speakers Paul Ryan and John Boehner are still tight-lipped about who they'll vote for, and some Republicans are reportedly weighing their options between backing a third-party contender or openly endorsing Biden, risking the ire of Trump. Some say they'd possibly prefer a Biden victory if the GOP managed to preserve its Senate majority.

So what?  I'm still voting for Trump.  Bush and Romney are just run-of-the-mill career pols.

It's too bad President Trump can't enjoy the support of two prominent fellow Republicans, but the bottom line is, Bush and Romney, who at one time were much more popular with Republicans than they are now, don't carry a whole lot of weight with Republicans in general.

Two losers do not support President Trump.

I can't muster up two squirts of piss for those two.

Well, we do have a secret ballot. And what someone says in public isn't what they may do in the privacy of the voting booth. And they may say what they say just to avoid getting trashed on Twitter. Maybe.

If they vote for that lying dog faced pony soldier rapist, screw 'em.

That said, the article is short on quotes--only one sort of vague quote from Cindy McCain.

I'll chalk it up to fake news except Romney, who is no surprise since he made it known what side he's on with his shampeachment vote.

Cindy McCain also admitted that everyone knew about Jeffrey Epstein but were afraid? Why be afraid unless you were involved?

Could be, I have looked at Twitter. It is brutal.

I have been seeing more #<insert any name>isoverparty a lot at Twitter.

Cancel culture is in overdrive mode.

Well, they didn't support him in 2016 either in any material way, and it was just as well, because they're both symbols of everything that's wrong with the GOP.
