“I cannot vote for someone who chronically and habitually tells lies.”
“ I am Dale and I am from North Carolina. So in 2016 and also 2020, I did vote for Trump, but this year in 2024, I am voting for Harris. I’m right now considered an associate pastor at the church I attend. What he’s attempting to do is tap in to evangelicals to get them to come over to his side of the fence to vote for him.
“And he himself claims to be a believer, but his rhetoric and his behavior is so contrary to what I see in the scriptures. And I think if you’re gonna be a Christian and claim to be a Christian, you need to live what you say you are.
“He’s using these tactics to appeal to the conservative Christian evangelicals in America, to get their vote and to try to use it in a political way like this, I think is wrong. Republicans have always believed in the rule of law, and we’ve always endorsed traditions, but when Trump did what he did on the Capitol, and also tried to subvert an election, he basically was sending a message that it’s okay to subvert the law.
“I can’t support someone who wants to just subvert the law. I keep going back to what happened in January at the Capitol and when I heard Trump at the Republican Convention say, ‘These were really good people, and when I get put in office, I’m going to adjudicate their sentences so they can actually be released.’
“And I’m like, these folks attacked Capitol police officers. I just cannot vote for someone who chronically and habitually tells lies. I go back and fact-check everything that Trump claims that he has accomplished. And when I fact check it, I would say 98% of the things he is saying are not true. There’s no truth to it. And I think if you’re gonna be a leader, you need to tell the truth.”
