I'm convinced that so many Members of Congress of my own former party suppress their conscience and their better judgment out of fear and I think submission to Donald Trump.
I want an aspirational leader that I could say to my son and grandson, grow up to be like him or her. And he fails that test miserably.
But this is clearly the most egregious example of basically a quid pro quo and the negative that is if you do something, I'll take something away.
I cannot, in good conscience, if Donald Trump is our nominee, I cannot vote for him because of what I -- the risk that I think I put my own country in terms of foreign policy and use of military force.
