Sadly my Congressman. I spoke with him at a campaign event and asked him if Joe Biden is the legitimately elected President of US. I am a pretty conservative Republican but will not vote or support a Trump acolyte or election denier. I wanted a reason to not write in or vote third party. He answered that Biden was the legitimately elected President of US. So he received my vote. I would sure like that one back. As an aside in Governor race I wrote in name of Tom Suozzi whose seat this delusional fellow captured. I could not vote for Trump hugger Zeldin.
I really feel for conservatives like you, John. The party is so different from what you and I grew up with. In my opinion there was always a flirtation with racist sentiments, but that could be said of Democrats during that period as well. Believe it or not, I’ve occasionally voted for Republicans in years past. Currently, there’s almost no circumstance in which I can imagine supporting a Republican. The party has fallen so far, I doubt that Reagan could survive a Republican primary today.
