Don't take my word for it, let's check in with some folks who know Trump well...Republican Tim Miller wrote an article that was published this morning, "They Served With Trump and Saw the Crazy. They Should Endorse Harris," that asks why the individuals who
worked for and alongside Trump did not appear at the DNC to speak out against him or to endorse Harris.
Miller suggests: 1.) They're playing 3D chess, "calculating that their endorsements would pack more punch as standalones, not buried in a convention lineup;" 2.) They're waiting for the political whirlwind to calm and are playing it safe for the time being; 3.) They're watching to see if replacing Biden with Harris would mean a shift to the left for the ticket.
But as Miller argues,
"Harris’s acceptance speech was downright McCainian."On immigration, she pledged to sign the Lankford bill into law. She promised to be unceasingly loyal to the NATO alliance, defeat China in the competition for the twenty-first century, ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, and take “whatever action is necessary” to counter Iran and its proxies. She even pledged to make certain that America had “the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world,” causing some lefties in my social media feed to clutch their pearls. Most stirringly, she paid tribute to American exceptionalism and vowed to defend our democratic ideals against the autocrats who are menacing our allies and rooting for Trump.
Serious question: If it had been Condi Rice accepting the nomination, what would she have said differently on the subject of foreign policy? Which brings us to 4.) Personal and political cowardice:
these people are chickenshit.thebulwark.com - Republicans who served with trump and saw the crazy should endorse kamala harris
