    “I remained a Republican until Jan. 6. And then I watched to see how the Republican Party would respond to the events that occurred,” Lunt said. “And I wasn’t pleased with that. And so I became an independent.”

    At least one person was able to see through the bullshit.

      You mean after the infidelity and after the porn star scandal? Please. They pick the ideals they want to care about.

        To be entirely fair, I’d say attempting a coup is a couple orders of magnitude worse than sex scandals.

          1/3 of America is still thinking about it … that alone is a worrying state of the country’s mentality

    Never fails to amaze me that anyone who views themself as remotely pious could support trump. He’s the epitome of antichrist, especially if you go by the bible definitions.

    Eh, I wouldn’t regard Utah as a key state. It’s extremely and safely red, and has only a few electoral votes anyway. But it’s heartening to hear this.

    Ok, but who are they going to vote for? My bet is that they all fall into line in the end.

      The article says they will be voting for Biden or at least some had a “republicans for Biden” sign in their yards

      Because MAGA is a cult and votes are secret, I think you’re going to see a decent difference between what the polls get and what votes are cast in this election.

        This could be said for either way. We easily might wake up one November morning and learn of the impeding trump term. I wish it was going to be a clear and cut case since trump shouldnt even be allowed to run. But there are a lot of edgy young adults that probably wouldnt mind watching the world burn a bit more.
