“He and his cronies will do anything and everything they can to benefit themselves.”
“I am Buck. I live in Florida and I’m a registered Republican. I’ve been a registered Republican for most of my adult life. I voted for Trump in 2016, I won’t be voting for him in 2024.
“I know he is incapable of performing the duties, but this time he has indicated that he intends to fundamentally change our democratic way of governing. I’ve enjoyed the democratic life for over 80 years, and I believe most people in this country would say that they’ve enjoyed the Democratic way of life, but that democracy will cease to exist.
“If Donald Trump is elected, we will no longer have a law-abiding country. Simply speaking, we will not be able to enjoy the kind of life that we’ve become accustomed to. We will be living in an autocracy where he and his cronies will do anything and everything they can to benefit themselves and absolutely nothing to benefit the common folks.
“It’s hard for me to understand why so many people that have so much to lose can’t see past the ruse. He’s showing and telling us every day exactly what he intends to do if he’s elected. I really do like being a part of Republican Party, and I wanna be part of the Republican party going forward, and I think I will be if it gets back to the party that it once was, but it’s not gonna be the Republican party that I want if Donald Trump gets into office, not even close.
“So I’m willing, and I hope a lot of other people are willing to cast my vote this time for the Democratic Party. I’m sure that I won’t agree with everything in their agenda.
“Just as I’ve never agreed with everything in the agenda of the Republican administrations, but sometimes acceptance of some opposing views and thoughts are necessary in order to achieve a greater good. And I believe at this point achieving the greater good is to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, and that’s exactly what I intend to do.
“I hope that a lot of other Republicans, who are not satisfied with the Republican party can agree that we can no longer support Donald Trump. So let’s take steps that we need to, to keep him from getting into office. Let’s cast our vote for democracy.”
