Henry Paulson, "Choose country over party" (24 June 2016), The Washington Post, Washington, D.C., as quoted in CBS News (June 2016)
“
With Donald Trump as the presumptive presidential nominee, we are witnessing a populist hijacking of one of the United States' great political parties... [R]ooted in ignorance, prejudice, fear and isolationism... This troubles me deeply as a Republican, but it troubles me even more as an American... Enough is enough... It's time to put country before party and say it together: Never Trump.
— Henry Paulson
