Christopher Suprun, a paramedic from Texas, wrote in an op-ed published in The New York Times Monday that Trump is “not qualified for the office” of the presidency, and called on his fellow Republican electors to unite behind another Republican presidential candidate, such as Ohio Gov. John Kasich.
