2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumChristie Whitman, former Governor from New Jersey, called it on Trump months ago.
As the primaries wrapped and it was clear Trump would be the nominee, Christie Whitman was interviewed on MSNBC. I think with Chris Hayes, but I'm not certain. The discussion was on transitioning to a general election mode.
Whitman made it very clear that wasn't going to happen. She said there might be moments when he might seem to get it together, but the man was not capable of changing. She discussed how during her term as governor that she had to deal with Trump and that she knew the kind of man he was. I think it was during the time he was building casinos.
She made it clear that he is an immature man with an inappropriate temperament. She said "This is who he is."
And that she would never vote for him.
