Ex-Texas Judge Leaves GOP

“Citing what she called President Trump’s racist ideology, Elsa Alcala, a retired Republican judge on the state’s highest criminal court, announced on Facebook that she can no longer support the GOP and has left the party,” the Austin American Statesman reports.

Said Alcala: “It has taken me years to say this publicly but here I go. President Trump is the worst president in the history of this country. Even accepting that Trump has had some successes — and I believe these are few — at his core, his ideology is racism. To me, nothing positive about him could absolve him of his rotten core.”

She added: “Every day with the Republican Party seemed worse than the day before.”
