ALEXANDRIA, VA — Republicans appear to have settled on their argument to convince other Republicans to vote for Kamala Harris — and it has nothing to do with Harris herself.
Former GOP congressman and Freedom Caucus member-turned Jan. 6 committee staff member Denver Riggleman summed up his argument to a crowd of anti-Trumpers in a nearby Washington, D.C., suburb on Thursday afternoon: A vote for Harris doesn’t mean you agree with Harris; it means you disagree with Donald Trump.
“Anybody who’s been found liable for sexual abuse, somebody that’s a felon, somebody that’s a conspiracy theorist, somebody who helped to incite J-6, somebody who’s an apologist for Putin, somebody who is immoral, somebody who doesn’t understand foreign policy, and somebody who has such a bad connection to the truth, should not be president of the United States,” he said. “And that’s why I’m supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”
