Dear Mr. Raffensberger, do you STILL consider yourself a "trump supporter"?

Now that he's called you an "enemy of the people"? Now that he's endangered your life?

But, that obvious question out of the way, I'm really here to say that I HAVE NO SYMPATHY for you. You cast your lot with an obvious snake, now deal with it.

By the way, thanks for doing your job.... but in that regard doing your job is no more noble than a grocery store cashier doing his, or a dog walker doing hers, or a burger chef doing his, etc.

efficiently, morally and constitutionally is quite noble. Hope he and his family remain safe. I wonder if he is able to be a bit introspective at this juncture and possibly make different choices in his future?

I'm just glad when anybody does the right thing. Not sure why Raffensperger is doing this, but it is the right thing.

Which makes his vote for Trump a mystery. Maybe he knew even more crap would come his way if he couldn't say that he'd voted for Trump?

He gave money to and voted for the morally corrupt Orange Con. That's all we need to know about him.

Watch Leah Remini's documentary series on Scientology. Watch how that church goes hard after anyone who disobeys.
