Letter: Who did the moderate Republicans coming out against Trump vote for in 2016?
I think where we are now, desperately trying to hold onto democracy from a crazed reality star, was fairly predictable eight years ago.
(Gerald Herbert | The Associated Press) In this Tuesday, March 15, 2016, photo Donald Trump speaks to supporters at his primary election night event at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Fla.
It’s been interesting seeing all these moderate Republicans suddenly come to the light and write letters in amazement at the antics of our favorite would-be dictator, desperately trying to pump the brakes on their out-of-control party.
However, I have one question.
Who did they vote for in 2016?
I think where we are now, desperately trying to hold onto democracy from a crazed reality star, was fairly predictable eight years ago.
But America wasn’t as important back then, making sure their team won was.
