All these republicans with "serious concerns" voted for Harris instead...

gave a speech at the Democratic convention.

One of the countless anti-TFG Republicans who switched sides and campaigned against him. *sigh*

(41,379 posts)5. Very few listened to any of these people who knew things from the inside.
People who actually worked in The White House and saw the craziness of Trump's first term up close tried mightily to warn the country. One thing this election showed us is that lies and propaganda is more powerful than the truth.

(223,337 posts)6. I know. We kept hearing how many Republicans in positions of power rejected TFG and signed on with Harris/Walz
And, like Liz Cheney, now likely put themselves in danger.

(56,177 posts)7. I stand corrected...
I know a lot of anti-Trump Republicans thought they were doing their job by simply not voting for him...
