Bush-era EPA official backs Clinton, pans Trump

摘要

When Alan Steinberg led U.S. EPA's New York-based office during the George W. Bush administration, he worked with then-Sen. Hillary Clinton on environmental cleanup efforts. Steinberg was impressed. "She was not this out-of-whack ultra-liberal that everyone told me I was going to face. I enjoyed working with her," Steinberg said this week in an interview. Steinberg, a Republican who is now retired, plans to not only vote for Clinton for president but also campaign for her. Steinberg got behind the Democrat after his top pick for the White House -- Sen. Ted Cruz (RTexas) -- dropped out of the race.
