Trump’s GOP Challenger Bill Weld: Only Thing Trump and I Have in Common Is We’re Both ‘Big Orange Men’
A day after officially announcing he will challenge President Trump for the 2020 Republican nomination, former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld blasted the president as a “would-be emperor” who praises dictators, adding that the only he has in common with the president is they’re both “big orange men.”
Weld, who was the Libertarian Party’s vice-presidential nominee in 2016, was asked by MSNBC host Kasie Hunt on Tuesday afternoon whether he actually thought he could successfully take on Trump considering the president’s popularity among Republican voters.
The former Bay State governor suggested that GOP voters have been “buffaloed” by the RNC and that they have not truly seen how “mean-spirited” Trump is to the “little people.”
