One of Donald Trump's staunchest critics has created a stir with his most recent remarks on the President.

Billionaire health care titan Mike Fernandez lashed out at the Commander In Chief during a telephone call with Politico on Thursday, July 20. The article that pulls from the interview covers the former Republican's disengagement from the party and how jaded he has become with politics since the 2016 election. Fernandez, who was a supporter of Jeb Bush for the GOP nomination, was known for his vocal opposition of Trump. Following the election of the real estate mogul into the Oval Office, he dropped his affiliation with the Republican Party, and hasn't spared any words on what he thinks about the loyal Trump base either.

"All the Republicans who hide behind the flag and the church, they don't have the F**king balls to do what it takes," Fernandez told Politico. The article cites occasions in which he's been compelled to decline donation requests that he continues to get from GOP politicians he once supported. One example is given of how Fernandez explained his reason for departure to a donor whose email he recalls responding to. "Too disgusted, too expensive, too supportive of ego maniacs whose words have the value of quicksand," he reportedly told her after declaring that he no longer participates in politics.

“It is demoralizing to me to see adults worshipping a false idol. I can’t continue to write checks for anyone,” Fernandez is cited as saying. At one point, he called Trump an "abortion of a human being," and told the Politico reporter that if destiny were in his hands, the President wouldn't be alive today. “If I was the doctor and knew what that baby would do, I’d have made sure it never would have seen the light of day,” he reportedly said.
