Former FBI Director James Comey says he won’t be voting for President Trump in the 2020 presidential election.
Comey, who recently said he did not vote in the 2016 election, told ABC News podcast “Start Here” he can’t imagine what would lead him to vote for Trump, who fired him last year.
“I can’t imagine a circumstance of me voting for President Trump,” Comey said, “Given what I think he reflects in terms of values.”
During his book tour to promote A Higher Loyalty, Comey called Trump “morally unfit” to serve as president, but said he hopes Trump isn’t impeached. Instead, he said, Americans should vote Trump out of office in 2020.
Comey hasn’t closed the door on campaigning for a presidential candidate.
“I find politics to be kind of icky in general,” he said. “I’d never want to run for office myself … I’d certainly want to speak.”
