George Bush, Mitt Romney Won't Back Trump; Many Republicans Will Vote for Biden for Pres.

Former President George W. Bush and Sen. Mitt Romney are two Republicans who won't support the re-election of Donald Trump for President in 2020, the NY Times website reports today (June 7, 2020).

Also, former Secretary of State Colin Powell announced today that he will vote for Joe Biden, telling CNN that Trump "lies about things" and Republicans in Congress won't hold him accountable.

Biden himself intends to roll out his "Republicans for Biden" coalition later in the campaign, after fully consolidating his own campaign.

Public expressions of opposition to Trump from Republicans have accelerated in recent days over his repeated calls for protesters to be physically constrained, "dominated," as he put it, and his administration's order to forcefully clear the streets outside the White House so he could walk out for a photo opportunity while holding up a Bible have had a negative impact on Trump.
