Geraldo Rivera backing Harris: Trump 'cannot be trusted to honor the Constitution'

Source: The Hill

10/14/24 10:50 PM ET


Television personality Geraldo Rivera revealed Monday that he is backing Vice President Harris over former President Trump in the election, now less than a month away.

“Former President Trump is a sore loser who cannot be trusted to honor the Constitution,” Rivera, once an ally of the former president, wrote in a lengthy post on social platform X. “That is why I am voting for Kamala Harris to be our 47th President.”

The former Fox News personality said he hasn’t spoken to Trump since November 13, 2020 — just days after he lost the election to President Biden.

“He was calling to get my take on the controversies surrounding the election, which appeared to have been decided by a handful of votes in several states,” Rivera added. “I asked him what he would do if the vote count remained against him. As I reported on Fox News that same morning, Friday the 13th, he told me he was a reasonable man and would do the right thing if that time came.” He said Trump chose to do the opposite, embarking on “an increasingly menacing campaign to discredit the 2020 election.”

Where was this announced? If true, that is significant, cause he's been a pain in the ass to Democrats for years.

traitor might not have actually said that, but he lives it. Contract, smontract. Marriage, smarriage. Bills, schmiils. Something like that

Anyway, just in general, traitor won't defend the U.S. Constitution as a private citizen or if he is installed.
