February 19, 2019 at 7:08 am EST By Taegan Goddard
Howard Schultz pledged in a letter to supporters that he is committed to making sure an independent run for president would do nothing to re-elect Donald Trump, Axios reports.
Said Schultz: As Im sure youve seen, there have been some skeptical and even downright angry comments from party activists and inside-the-Beltway pundits in the press and on social media. Others have expressed genuine fears that an independent candidate could help re-elect President Trump.
He added: I hear and respect this overriding concern, and have repeatedly promised that I will not be a spoiler. I am committed to ensuring that I will do nothing to re-elect Donald Trump. I mean it.
