I’m a gay guy who’s left the Left. A lifelong Democrat—not anymore. I'm voting for Donald Trump.
I used to think voting Democrat was the compassionate choice. But today’s Democrat Party? It’s become a war-hungry censorship machine, cynically using identity politics and media manipulation to divide us—and lawfare to eliminate its political opponents.
I’ve unlearned years’ worth of (often well-meaning) dangerous, regressive leftist ideas. Instead, I’ve opened my mind to great thinkers like @ThomasSowell and @VDHanson, and I’ve enjoyed listening to the perspectives of @bariweiss, @amirxodom, and @megynkelly—to name just a few.
There’s a massive political realignment happening, and free thinkers are finding hope in a new conservative movement—open, welcoming, and committed to the Constitutional values that have made America the freest, most prosperous country in history.
This year, I’m voting conservative down the ballot. Some might think that’s “upside down,” but in today’s world, that’s exactly why we need to set things Right side up.
