They Said It

Want to know what kind of human and leader Donald J. Trump is? Listen to those who know him best.

Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University.

Mitt Romney

U.S. Senator - Utah (R)

“Someone who continually disrespects the sacrifices of military families has no business being commander in chief,”

Nikki Haley

Former Trump UN Ambassador

“I think he’s unfit for office. … He puts himself before country. His actions are all about him and not about the country. And then, of course, I believe he has integrity and character issues as well.”

Mark Esper

Former Trump Secretary of Defense

Trump’s “unrestrained contempt for the rule of law and his related crimes, his conduct and mere existence have hastened the demise of democracy and of the nation.”

Ty Cobb

Former Trump White House Special Counsel

Trump has a “penchant, for engaging in… reckless acts” and said “I don’t think he should be near the Oval Office,” 

Bill Barr

Former Trump U.S. Attorney General

“He is the domestic terrorist of the 21st century.”

Anthony Scaramucci

Former Trump Communications Director

For Donald Trump, any opposition, either personal, ideological, or political is treason. Anyone who stands in his path betrays the Great Leader. Anyone who fails to take the knee is a traitor.

Rick Wilson

Co-founder of The Lincoln Project

This country deserves a statesman who can represent the people with proper decorum, respect, and knowledge of what’s happening in the world, and I don’t believe that Donald Trump represents any of that.

Michael Kelly

Former Trump White House Chief of Staff

“The American people deserve to know that President Trump asked me to put him over my oath to the Constitution. … Anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be president of the United States.”

Mike Pence

Former U.S. Vice President

Accused the former president of using his position to “destroy trust in our election and to poison our respect for fellow citizens.”

Jim Mattis

Former Trump U.S. Secretary of Defense

“The stunning thing about the number of senior Trump administration officials who’ve campaigned against him I think proves that it really is Trump’s flawed character, lack of knowledge, lack of philosophy, lack of fitness that has them concerned,” 

John Bolton

Former Trump National Security Advisor

“The President undermined American democracy baselessly for months. As a result, he’s culpable for this siege, and an utter disgrace.”

Tom Bossert

Former Trump Homeland Security Advisor

“Fundamentally, a second Trump term could mean the end of American democracy as we know it, and I don’t say that lightl,”

Alyssa Farah Griffin

Former Trump White House Director of Strategic Communications

“(Trump’s) understanding of global events, his understanding of global history, his understanding of US history was really limited. It’s really hard to have a conversation with someone who doesn’t even understand the concept for why we’re talking about this.”

Rex Tillerson

Former Trump U.S. Secretary of State

Trump isn’t “fit for the job … I think that he is erratic. I think that he can be delusional. I think that he is a narcissist and cares about himself first and foremost.  And I do not want him to be our president again.”

Stephanie Grisham

Former Trump White House Communications Director

 “Donald Trump is the most grave threat that we will face to our democracy in our lifetime, and potentially in American history.”

Cassidy Hutchinson

Former Assistant to Trump Chief of Staff

“…the president has very little understanding of what it means to be in the military, to fight ethically or to be governed by a uniform set of rules and practices.”

Richard Spencer

Former Trump Secretary of the Navy

“Donald Trump, who would attack civil rights icons and professional athletes, who would go after grieving black widows, who would say there were good people on both sides, who endorsed an accused child molester; Donald Trump, and his decisions and his behavior, was harming the country. I could no longer be a part
