Former World Bank chief says it is important to ‘speak up and say how unacceptable Trump is’

Leading neo-conservative Paul Wolfowitz said he would not back Donald Trump for US president and might vote for Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton instead, in an interview published Friday.

Wolfowitz, a top advisor to George W. Bush during his presidency and vociferous champion of the “preemptive war” in Iraq, told Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine that he saw Trump as a security risk.

“I wish there were somebody I could be comfortable voting for,” said Wolfowitz, also a former World Bank chief.

“I might have to vote for Hillary Clinton, even though I have big reservations about her.”

Wolfowitz, 72, criticized Trump for saying he admired Russian President Vladimir Putin and was impressed by the Chinese in economic affairs.

“That is pretty disturbing,” Wolfowitz said. “It’s important to speak up and say how unacceptable he is.”

Wolfowitz joined a chorus of “neocons” in distancing themselves from the Republicans’ current nominee. During the primaries he had advised Bush’s brother Jeb, a former Florida governor.

“Dump Trump” calls have continued since the 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney trashed the brash real estate mogul’s candidacy early this year, leading to a trickle of defections to Clinton’s camp.

This month more than 70 influential Republicans signed a letter urging the party to stop spending money on Trump’s presidential campaign and direct it instead to November’s congressional races.

In the letter to Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, they said Trump’s “divisiveness, recklessness, incompetence, and record-breaking unpopularity” risked turning the election into a “Democratic landslide.”

  1. That Paul Wolfowitz is not in prison, is a pretty good indication that the entire American system is corrupt to the core. The needless deaths of 5000 American soldiers is on his shoulders.

  2. let all the criminals come out and support hillthebeast.

    the witch will still lose

    even with rigged/hacked vote counters

  3. As the old saying goes, “you can often judge the character of a man by who hates him,” and because all of the most vile, ethic-less, murdering, psychopathic, blood-sucking criminal swindlers on this planet are fervently supporting the crazy Clinton lady, then it tells me very clearly that Donald Trump will indeed be a great American President and his policies will support the American people and its Constitution (for once). Look at the lowly and vile creatures who are giving their support to Clinton – every single one of these things should be taken out and shot for Treason! Paul Wolfowitz and all his Neo-Con Trotskyite Jew conspirators who arranged the 9-11-2001 attacks on America should NOT be walking the streets of America free and easy, and if the justice system will not place them either in prison or before firing squads for their numerous crimes of terrorism, then it is the DUTY of the American people who were viciously attacked by these untermenschen to hunt them down and bring them to justice the old fashioned, Old West way – we don’t need no stinking lawyers – round ‘em up and hang ‘em all from the branches of trees and let the birds eat ‘em. Make them examples to future criminals. Teach these fuckers a good hard lesson (it’s called “monkey on a stick”). This will be the final earthly fate of ALL the Jews involved in 9-11 and beyond. Soon, they will have nowhere to hide, and no mountain cave will give them shelter. They will hang from the trees like strange and poisonous fruit.
