Bill Weld, the former Massachusetts Governor, and the 2016
Libertarian Party Vice Presidential candidate, made some striking
remarks this week, on Rachel Maddow's MSNBC program. He not only
criticized Donald Trump, sharply--but offered praise for Hillary
Clinton.
From the USA Today story, below: Weld "said he
believes Trump is 'psychologically' unstable, a bully and incapable of
'competently managing the office of the presidency.'
"For Clinton, on the other hand," the story
continued, "he had nothing but kind words. This was a clear break with
his running mate, Gary Johnson, who has attacked both candidates."
The USA Today story noted: "Weld said he believes Johnson would make a
good president and he supports the Libertarian platform, but 'having
said that, I'm not taking back anything I said about the massive
difference between the two establishment party candidates. One would be
chaos for the country I think and the other would be a very
business-like and capable and competent approach to our affairs.' "

Here is the transcript from Mr. Weld's interview with Rachel Maddow, via a
piece in The Washington Post. The headline in The Post
reads: "Libertarian Party VP nominee Bill Weld basically just
endorsed Hillary Clinton."
