Massachusetts Republican Gov. Charlie Baker joined team #NeverTrump on Wednesday, telling reporters he won't vote for frontrunner Donald Trump in November even if he's the party's nominee.
"I said I wasn't going to vote for Donald Trump yesterday and I didn't, and I don't plan to vote for him in November," Baker said, referring to the state's Super Tuesday primary, which Trump won by a substantial margin.
Asked whether he would cross party lines if Trump secures the nomination, Baker responded in audio posted online by the Boston Globe, "I'm not much of a fan of Hillary Clinton, let's put it that way."
"But I'm not willing to concede with 35 states still to go that he's going to be the Republican nominee," he said. "I'm not willing to concede that the Republican nomination is over."
Trump won seven states on Super Tuesday. Sen Ted Cruz (R-TX) was the next closest candidate, winning two states, and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) claimed victory in one.
Baker joined a growing contingent of conservatives who say they would rather vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton or a third-party candidate than support Trump in the general election.
Screw you, Charlie. Traitor.
Maybe when the gopes are voting for Hillary they will finally realize that they are democrats.

What they say to stay in office and how they vote, well...........
I’ve posted from much worse. Still here. Maybe my 32,000 threads give me credibility?
When was the last time we heard a DemRat pol in DC threaten to cross over and vote for the Republican for president if their chosen ‘Rat didn’t win the big cheese in the nomination process?
It’s not right. GOP voters elected Baker. GOP voters want Trump. The ingrate Charlie should support Trump,
Kick him out of the party.
This thing is in the hands of the American people. This politico class know their bread and butter is going to be cut off. We the people are sick and tired that Big Government policies are keeping us dependent on their government trough.
Go Trump!
...I agree, you're not like a couple overt trolls I could mention. But still, you have been ratcheting it up above & beyond the call of duty so to speak...

Yup. Just like Scott Brown. Eff 'em both.
we don’t have to take names cuz the internet records it all for us.
Charlie stupit.
Donald J. Trump
311,313 votes in MASS
Baker just made 311,313 new enemies.
Charlie Baker, who has a “gay” brother, sucks up to the “gay” cabal, and marches in “pride” parades, etc. Not much of a conservative, is he?
Meanwhile, in his own state:
Baker may end up as a one-term governor, with an insurgent conservative taking his place!!!!
