"This troubles me deeply as a Republican, but it troubles me even more as an American," said Paulson, a former Goldman Sachs chief executive who spearheaded the 2008 Wall Street bank bailout as treasury secretary.
"Enough is enough," he wrote. "It's time to put country before party and say it together: Never Trump."
Instead, he offered up Democrats' presumptive presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, as the country's best alternative to Trump, encouraging his GOP colleagues to consider her when casting their ballot.

Henry Paulson, the clown who insisted on bail outs, claims to be a REPUBLICAN, eh?
And they say Trump isn’t a real Republican, is that right?
HA HA HA HA HA HA.
Okay, Henry, then I’m not a Republican either, but that’s okay.
Why don’t you join George Will, Henry? You’re the RINO. Not me.
Endorsing Hillary Clinton for president is like endorsing Jerry Sandusky for a position as a high school football coach.
yeah, the thing is, the media in a gigantic circle jerk thinks that George Will, Brent Scowcroft and Henry Paulson HAVE SOME KIND OF INFLUENCE on the Republican voter.
It really is a bit hilarious in a way. The media HATES these guys because they’re Republican, but suddenly they think these guys HAVE INFLUENCE on me (a grassroots conservative) because they have an R next to their name.
Lemme tell ya somethin’, media lurkers: Jeb Bush didn’t get my vote because he had a R next to his name. The era of “say the right thing and get my vote” is over. Maybe not for you guys—you’re still in the tank for the worst occupant of the Oval Office since Buchanan. But here in the real world, that ship has sailed.

Crony capitalism is a recipe for war.
It brought war on American soil and will surely again.
Outstanding. LOL.
Surprise! The robber baron poster boy for crony corporatism is backing its most pliable puppet and beneficiary.
ok.
I’ll say it.
Mrs Cruz= GS.
Mr Cruz = his wife.
Not literally but you know what I mean.
If someone asked me the same about my wife, I’d say, yeah, pretty much we think the same on most issues.
To think otherwise is unicorns and rainbows.
Bullseye.
Paulson just wants to keep the government trough open and full. If he actually cared for America he would commit seppuku at once.
Hank Paulson was a DEMOCRAT before the idiot Bush appointed him. This makes utterly no sense.
Very telling.
Hillary has been an unmitigated disaster in the matter of foreign affairs. The entire world is on fire from the actions of this psychopath and her sociopathic boss.
The neocons are all ready to fight to the last sons and daughters of the unwashed masses in the name of globalism.
Trump needs to paint them all with the same brush and hang it all around Hillary’s neck.
Let them all go back to the Democrat party where they belong.
Corporate liberals, the lot of them.
The GOPe political hacks are really something to behold. From all I have seen, this election is it—we will never have a stronger opportunity for true change than this election.
I hope some of the non GOPe Cruz supporters will wake up and realize that they are siding with the establishment if they stay home or vote Libertarian and Hillz wins, she will finish off the US as we have known it.
Monday I will be renouncing my GOP affiliation; and as it stands now, if Trump is not elected, I can’t see myself ever voting Republican again~not that there will be a country or election to vote in if Hillz wins.
Henry Paulson cost us TRILLIONS of DOLLARS for the BAILOUT that he MADE Solvent banks take!! HE IS A DEMOCRAT!!!! SCREW HIM!!!
RINOXIT!
Henry Paulson - another on a long list of America-hating traitors to be arrested for sedition.
They feel THREATENED by Trump...they see their little empire being destroyed by Trump.
For those Republican voters that have doubts about Trump...when you see the people that MADE A TOTAL MESS OF THE COUNTRY running from Trump...that should end your doubts - Trump will do some serious ass-kicking once he’s in office. The Oligarchy that is now running the Republican Party will be put out to pasture.
