Three women who worked in former President Donald Trump’s administration are grimly warning voters not to return him to the White House in 2024.
They warn he poses a major threat to American democracy and some are even thinking about backing the Democratic nominee if Trump locks up the GOP nod.
“Everybody that’s in the West Wing, and frankly, a lot of the Cabinet secretaries, they know how dangerous Trump is,” former White House Communications Director Alyssa Farah Griffin told ABC’s “This Week.”
“This is not a political issue. It’s not about policy. It’s about the character of the man.”
Griffin was joined in the interview by former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson and former deputy White House press secretary Sarah Matthews.

“We don’t need to speculate about Trump’s second term because we’ve already seen it,” Matthews said, before repeating his denial of a 2020 election.
Trump’s campaign forcefully rejected the three women, who have been outspoken against the 45th president.
“These ungrateful hunters are using the opportunity President Trump has given them to build their careers until they realize they can make more money as Never Trumper$ [sic],” said a Trump campaign official.
“None of their TV contracts or book deals would exist if they hadn’t gone Full Judas.”

The 77-year-old former president and GOP frontrunner has been grappling with a string of high-profile defections from his administration.
Former top officials such as former National Security Advisor John Bolton, Attorney General Bill Barr, Chief of Staff John Kelly, and many others have warned against re-electing him in 2024.
Despite efforts to unseat him in the primary, Trump has dominated the polls.
“I would just encourage other people to come forward because we’re running out of time to try to keep Trump from being in the Oval Office again,” Matthews said.

“Many of these people will not come forward even though they will personally admit that Trump is unqualified or will personally admit that the 2020 election was not stolen,” Matthews continued. “It’s because they know that they will face death threats, that their families will face death threats.”
Matthews suspended the possibility of voting Democratic in the general election should Trump emerge as the Republican standard bearer.
“I’ve never voted Democrat in my life, but I think in this upcoming election, I’m going to put politics aside and vote for democracy,” Matthews said.
“Our sole focus should be if he is a candidate to make sure he is not elected president again next November,” Hutchinson said.
Hutchinson drew attention to Trump thinking about being a dictator for a day.

“The fact that he feels that he has to lean to be a dictator alone shows that he is a weak and weak person,” he said.
The first Republican contest will take place on January 15, 2024 in the Iowa caucuses followed by the New Hampshire primary on January 23, 2024.
