Lawmaker @JimHendren1 left the GOP after the Capitol insurrection, but he reluctantly voted Trump in 2020. "We see choices where we have a far-right extremist on the Republican side," he tells @mehdirhasan, "versus a Democratic candidate who does not represent the values at all."

What conservative values does Trump support? 1. He’s CHEAP: i.e. only spends money when HE profits. 2. He’s PRO-LIFE? No: Discussed aborting Tiffany on Stern show. 3. Christian? No. 10 Commandments: how Trump “rates.” Democrats are BETTER Conservatives than Trump. @GOP

His comment about being left with two very difficult choices in the 'extremes', just like many other Republicans will say, is actually a verbal cover-up to be able to talk on TV. There is one, not two, extreme.
