Carly Fiorina calls for impeaching Trump -- but doesn't rule out voting for him in 2020

Source: Politico

Former Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina is backing the impeachment of President Donald Trump, calling the president’s behavior "destructive to the republic,” though she’s not ruling out voting for him in 2020.

"I think it is vital that he be impeached," the former Hewlett-Packard CEO said in an hour-long interview on CNN’s "Boss Files with Poppy Harlow.”

When asked if the president should be removed from office, Fiorina said, "this close to an election, I don't know."

Fiorina went on to condemn the president’s open attacks on Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the National Security Council official and decorated Army officer who testified to House investigators about Trump’s attempts to pressure Ukraine to open investigations into his own political rivals.

Lots of people will say something opposing him publicly, but then privately vote for him again. Many POCs who are seeing first hand the voter suppression efforts in blue areas of swing states expect Trump to be impeached, acquitted by the Senate, and then re-elected by deplorables and other enablers.

Carly sucked at being HP's CEO, but managed to get axed with a golden parachute. Her biggest priorities seemed to be laying people off and jetting around on the company planes for photo ops. Then she took some of her ill gotten fortune and got her A** kicked in politics. Carly -- shut up and sit down. Your opinion doesn't mean jack.

is trolling trump that she is available to be bought if he gives her some kind of position in his group that get's her back in the attention of the public.......

either her parents gave her too little attention, or they gave her too much and she thinks that she needs all the attention in the world lasting her entire miserable skanky life...........

Seriously. Who the hell cares what she says? She's an even worse CEO than Trump. Just ask all the people who lost their jobs because of her poor decision-making.

...it's incredibly stupid.
She is an obvious example of the Peter principle. Over-promoted to the level of CEO before anyone realized how little she could think strategically.
She ruined a company!
One of the spinoffs is now the most successful ever in their field, but she couldn't be bothered to learn a little something about products outside her experience.
