Carly Fiorina Calls Trump ‘An Inadequate Man Who Lacks the Mental Faculties and Strength of Character’ to Be President

After being defeated by President Trump in the 2016 Republican primaries, Carly Fiorina turned her back on the Republican party this year and endorsed Joe Biden for president.

Today, Fiorina criticized him and others in a tweet where she began with an apparent history lesson, “Inadequate men in big jobs are always dangerous.”

“President Trump has cemented his legacy as an inadequate man who lacks the mental faculties and strength of character necessary for the job,” Fiorina continued.

In an apparent shot at Republicans who have supported him through the fight against perceived election fraud, she concluded and wondered, “How many others will prove, by saying and doing nothing, that they too are inadequate?”

Inadequate men in big jobs are always dangerous. President Trump has cemented his legacy as an inadequate man who lacks the mental faculties and strength of character necessary for the job.

How many others will prove, by saying and doing nothing, that they too are inadequate?

During an appearance at Yahoo Finance’s All Market’s Summit in October, Fiorina laid out a scenario that might lead her back to her old party where she imagined Trump losing and then “there is perhaps an interesting conversation in the Republican Party” featuring those like her who did not support Trump “about the future of the Republican Party after Trump.”

In a follow-up interview with Yahoo Finance Fiorina said she believes that Trump’s ongoing refusal to concede defeat is not about overturning the election, but instead, “this is all about Donald Trump’s political power with the base.”

Facing the reality of the fact that he got 73 million votes and counting, Fiorina concedes that “I certainly think [Trump] is laying track for running again in 2024. He isn’t going away, he’s not disappearing.”

While Fiorina said she has no ambition to join Biden’s cabinet, it also appears less likely than ever that she will rejoin her old party.
