Even Barack Obama’s former strategist sees electors turning against Donald Trump will do more harm than good.
That’s why David Axelrod is calling on electors — who will convene in all 50 state capitols on Monday — to vote for the candidate they were elected on November 8th to support.
Though I share deep concerns about election & @realDonaldTrump, most electors will follow states & should. Reversal would rip country apart.

“Though I share deep concerns about election & (Donald Trump), most electors will follow states & should,” he tweeted on Sunday. “Reversal would rip country apart.”
Axelrod is going against the line of thinking progressives are pushing in urging electors to buck Trump and vote for someone else.
Democrats are taking comfort in a TV ad led by fake president Martin Sheen and other Hollywood elites demanding electors withhold their vote from Trump on Monday.
