This lady is not happy about Donald Trump's win in South Carolina. She was a Jeb Bush supporter, and now she may just decide to become a Democrat.

Jeannie Farmer was asked if she could support Donald Trump. Her answer was definite.

"Not me personally. The office of President of the United States should be one of dignity and respect," she stated. "Donald Trump does not exemplify somebody of character, he is not somebody who, if I were to vote for him, I couldn't explain to my two young boys why I voted for him because he's not a man that I respect."

"He is a man who has trashed women, and Muslims and people of multiple faiths and religions, he's in a fight with the Pope, and he's just a bad choice from a character perspective," she finished.

When asked where that left her as a Republican, and whether she could support Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton over Trump, she said she could, reiterating her distaste for Trump.

"He acts like my kids do when they're two. You can't throw a temper tantrum and think you're worthy of my votes," she said.

"It'll take one country, when he's elected to office, and Trump's going to throw a temper tantrum? And are we going to have a war all of a sudden because he didn't like what somebody said?"

Farmer also said she clings to the hope of a third-party candidate on the Republican side to save her from having to make that choice.

I have a feeling there are many more just like her.
