Martin Shkreli clarifies: Only Trump with 'gun to my head'
By Nick Gass
So much for the coveted backing of Donald Trump by Martin Shkreli.
The embatted pharmaceutical executive tweeted last Thursday that he supported the Republican nominee over Hillary Clinton, prompting a deluge of equal parts scorn and bemusement at the man who was universally vilified for boasting about raising the price of life-saving drug Daraprim by 5,000 percent.
On Monday evening, Shkreli sought to set the record straight: Only with a gun to his head would he vote for the Manhattan billionaire.
"This year I am abstaining in protest of crap candidates," he wrote in one tweet.
"I like humor that makes you think. Or in the case of media, not think and publish whatever you want. I would never vote for Trump."
"If someone put a gun to my head and made me vote, I would vote Trump over Hillary. This year I am abstaining in protest of crap candidates."
"If you think thats an endorsement, knock yourself out. Write a story bout how most hated guy (who can't find someone who hates him) likes DT"
