Republican Makes the Case for Voting for Democrats

Matt Lewis: “I’ve never voted for Donald Trump, but I’ve also never voted for any of his opponents in a general election. My voting history is complicated, kind of like my feelings — as a Never Trumper — about the Republican Party… Suffice it to say, as a lifelong Republican, I’m not in the habit of voting for Democrats.”

“This year, however, is my breaking point: I’m voting for Democrats in the midterms.”

“Besides, what bad, un-conservative things could Democrats do? I mean, are they going to start another forever war in the Middle East? Start socializing industries? Raise the national debt to $40 trillion? Cause abortion rates to rise? Increase the cost of groceries and gas? Pal around with socialists (like Zohran Mamdani)? Suck up to communists (like Chinese President Xi Jinping)? Nominate a bunch of weirdos, drunks and inexperienced hacks to the Cabinet? Pursue self-enrichment? Start building monuments to themselves? Threaten to use the power of government on their opponents?”

“Why, heck, you’d have to be some sort of left-wing nut to do all that stuff, right?”
