I sent the following letter to the editor of my local newspaper. I also sent it as an email to my two senators, Mitch McConnell and Nikki Haley. Please feel free to adapt and use.
As an independent and former member of both parties, I am watching these many Republican candidates tout integrity, border security and law and order. Yet, they openly talk about supporting Donald Trump.
That is a huge disconnect for me. Trump forced Republicans in Congress to vote down their own border security bill earlier this month per the Wall Street Journal. He has been adjudicated as a financial fraud in three recent cases and liable for defamation in two others, while facing 91 charges using words like sedition, election meddling and mishandling classified documents.
The January 6 insurrection has led to the conviction of over 700 people and the death of several law enforcement officers. At a minimum, the insurrection does not happen with any other president in the White House.
To be frank, I will not vote for any candidate who supports Donald Trump for president. Full stop.
