TEXAS GOP Elector Says He Will Not Cast His Vote for Trump

Texas presidential elector Chris Suprun says he will not cast his vote for Donald Trump.

Suprun signed a pledge this summer to support the Republican nominee.
He lied.

Suprun is a #NeverTrumper.
His Twitter timeline is littered with fellow #NeverTrumper gibberish.
The Associated Press reported:

    Republican member of the Electoral College from Texas said Monday that he won’t cast one of his state’s 38 electoral votes for Donald Trump because “I am here to elect a president, not a king.”

    Dallas paramedic Chris Suprun previously indicated he would support Trump. But he now says the president-elect’s postelection attacks on the First Amendment and the country’s electoral process, as well as the billionaire businessman’s continued promotion of his brand and business interests overseas, changed his mind.

    Texas law doesn’t mandate that electors vote according to the results of the state’s presidential election, which Trump won by nine percentage points over Hillary Clinton. Suprun and the GOP’s other electors signed pledges at the state Republican convention in Dallas this summer promising to vote for their party’s nominee, but those aren’t legally binding.

    “I’m expecting backlash, but that has been par for the course this campaign. People are unhappy. They’re angry. But I’m angry, too,” said Suprun, who said that prior to changing his mind he had received hundreds of emails, letters and phone calls urging him not to support Trump.

So, how much is he getting paid?

Republican Elector Cites ‘SNL,’ ‘Rogue One’ as Reasons He Won’t Vote for Trump

Suprun went on to make a number of references to Hollywood, from Trump’s Twitter tirades accusing the “Saturday Night Live” cast of bias, to Darth Vader and the Dark Side of the Force.

“‘Rogue One,’ the latest ‘Star Wars’ installment, arrives later this month. I am not taking my children to see it to celebrate evil, but to show them that light can overcome it,” he wrote.

BUSTED! Texas Rogue Electoral Delegate Chris Suprun Is Linked to Van Jones, Think Progress

Now this…
If you look at Chris Suprun’s Twitter page you can clearly see that he is using Megaphone Strategies as his PR firm.
https://megaphonestrategies.com/



Megaphone Strategies was founded by far left activist Van Jones.
It’s mission is “to use use PR as a tool to diversify progressive movements.”



Its clients include: Netroots Nation, Green for All and Demand Progress.

So this so-called conservative is using a far left company founded by Van Jones as a PR firm? You just can’t make this stuff up!
