The New York Times conducted a series of interviews with longtime Republican voters who now say they are fed up with Donald Trump and are willing to support Joe Biden in the upcoming 2020 election.
The interviewees expressed their concern with Trump and declared that they will never support the Republican president.
“Just the lying, just the craziness, the bullying — I’d rather pay more money than be with him for another four years,” said 56-year-old Arizona resident Lorena Burns, who couldn’t bring herself to vote for either Trump or Hillary Clinton in 2016, but who will now support Biden. “I’m willing to pay more money in taxes just to be away from him. He’s corrupting the country.”
Longtime New Hampshire Republican Peter Spaulding admitted to voting for Libertarian Gary Johnson four years ago, but won’t make the same mistake this year. He has vowed to vote for Biden.
While he would normally feel reservations about backing a Democrat, Spaulding said that was not the case “when the stakes are as high as they are this year.”
And 85-year-old Barbara Hill tells the Times that she will be backing Biden after she “wasted” her vote in 2016 by backing a third-party candidate.
