You can call it a matter of crossing party lines. Or you can question their GOP bona fides.
Regardless, a group of Republicans for Kamala Harris is being promoted by the Democratic Vice President’s campaign for the top job.
The effort is being chaired by some familiar names: former state Sen. Paula Dockery; Rich Logis, founder of Perfect Our Union; and Greg Wilson, who worked in GOP presidential administrations and served once as a GOP Staff Director in the House of Representatives.
“Having dedicated over a decade to public service in Florida, I am deeply troubled by the radical transformation of the Republican Party under Donald Trump’s authoritarian grip—a party I no longer recognize. I am proud to throw my full support behind Vice President Kamala Harris, and I am honored to join the Florida Republicans for Harris Committee as its Co-Chair. Kamala Harris embodies the leadership our nation desperately needs as we fight for the well-being of all Americans across this great country,” Dockery says.
“Having once supported Trump wholeheartedly, viewing him as a necessary disruptor, I’ve come to see the undeniable truth: his disruptions have eroded the very fabric of our democracy. We the People are one team. Donald Trump is a divider. As a uniter, Vice President Harris is best suited to lead our nation, armed with the unity and leadership we need. I am honored to join the Florida Republicans for Harris Committee as its Co-Chair, committed to rallying our community around her leadership that promises unity over division,” Logis adds.
““The Donald. J. Trump 2024 Republican Party Platform – ‘Make America Great Again’ is a distraction. The choice for voters in this election is between one candidate who advocates authoritarian views and policies while threatening basic freedoms and individual liberty, and the other who defends democracy and would protect and expand existing freedoms. We either vote for renewing and strengthening our democracy by electing Vice President Kamala Harris, or vote for an abrupt turn to an unknown and untested authoritarian future by installing a former President, now convicted felon, who aspires to be a dictator beginning on his first day in office,” Wilson argues.
National Director of Republican Outreach Austin Weatherford says the “backbone” of this program is “showing up and taking the time every single day to earn the vote of Republicans who believe in putting country over party, and know that every American deserves a commander-in-chief who will put the best interests of the American people above their own.”
Polls show that Florida will be a tough get for Kamala Harris despite Democrats saying she brings a new energy to the presidential race in the state.
A University of North Florida poll released in recent days shows Trump leading Harris 49% to 42%.
A Redfield and Wilton survey shows an eight point race, with Trump leading 47% to 39% against Harris in the Sunshine State.

I do not advocate forced birth. I have told you time and time again that I am in favor of a woman’s right to choose. Like I have said before in this day and age of modern contraception a woman’s choice should be simple. This is nothing more than a political fear statement that your party spools up every election along with the standard Medicaire, Medicaid, and Social Security claims.

Popular Georgia governor, Brian Kemp, failed to show up at Trump’s rally last evening. I guess Republicans can afford to sacrifice Georgia to Democrats.
Is DeSantis having problems unifying Republicans in Florida?
MH/Duuuval
August 4, 2024 at 11:04 am
Kemp’s lieutenant governor has come out in support of Biden/Harris. Georgia is in play and, if Trump goes down in Nov., he’ll be in court in Atlanta in front of a jury of locals for attempting to alter the 2020 election results. (And what Peach Stater can forget how Trump helped elect a Democrat to the US Senate in 2020?)

As everyone already knows, Kammi’s one and only hope of getting elected is to team up with Whoopi Goldberg as her VEEP.
“BUT WHY ELVIS”?
“Thank you for asking”, said ELVIS. “America I have so-far sat on “THE REAL REASON” for Whoopi but now I’m going to “Spill The Beans”, said ELVIS.
HERES THE POOP:
America, Biden was already trained as to reflexavly be 0bama’s “YES MAN” and was still (reflexvly) doing it even years after “Old-Timer’s Disease” had turned his brain into mush.
AS TO KAMMIE:
America, Kammie’s just too unreliable fot 8àrak to expect her to follow his orders and when 8arak says “Jump” Kammie wont reflexivly say “HOW HIGH”.
Now, America, 8arak and Whoopi, have been “Secret Lovers” since way back in the day when Whoopi stared in the movie “Sister Act”. Whoopi is totally subserviant to 8arak and will make sure Kammie does what ever 8arak desires.
STAND BY FOR THE REST OF THE STORY:
America, the above, as to now top secret DNC directive, is why you will soon see Whoopi announced as the VEEP PICK of choice. Plus polling has shown none of those “White Boys” currently being “Test Marketed” are going to make The Dook 4 Brains Left gain The White House.
So America, I urge you to pay heed to ELVIS so you dont look like a nimrod politically.
Thanks America,

Trump stands for one thing: himself. The only reason he picked Vance was his “fealty” to Trump. Vance is the most unqualified VP candidate since before WW II. He has zero executive experience and zero legislative accomplishment. Susie Wiles and Lindsey Graham tried to talk him out of it to no avail.
Did you listen to Trump trashing Brian Kemp in Georgia last night? Repeating the lies that he won Georgia twice? He’s unhinged and out of his mind.
Senate Republicans (most anyway) have deep regrets that they completely surrendered their integrity and “principles” to a greedy con man and grifter. And now we learn that Trump may have been the recipient of a $10 million bribe from Egypt. (WaPo investigative reporting).
It’s telling that half of Trump’s former cabinet members refuse to back him. It’s telling that Mike Pence will never vote for Trump.
Expect more defections. It’s doubtful that the angry, bitter old man of grievance, greed and lies appeals to young voters.

Actions speak louder than words, and repetitive claims of MAGAs to be in favor of women’s reproductive rights ring hollow in light of recent history. Thanks, of course, to DJT, the avatar of the lo-info and/or self-deluded voter.
MH/Duuuval
August 4, 2024 at 12:59 pm
The GOP/MAGA playbook is set in stone: Give massive tax breaks and concessions to wealthy donors, then proclaim rising budget deficits as a pretext to cut social programs — any of them the MAGAs can reach, up to and including Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. It all depends on how much the majority allows MAGAs to get away with, and Trump has shown that can be a lot, e.g., $10 million in cash from Egypt’s dictator Sisi.

That’s a good sign. Means people can, despite party affiliation, recognize what an a88hole Trump is.
Also; Coup plotter (Jan. 6th and fake electors);
Criminal (34 counts and counting);
Thief (U.S. Classified documents case pending but also non-classified documents which belong to the people of the U.S.); Fraudster (ripping people off with Trump University to name just one).
But sure, let’s not vote for Kamala because she said she was Indian when she’s Black (she’s both) or because she had sex with a boyfriend or whatever nonsense is being peddled.
Donald Trump will destroy America as we know it (especially with the Supreme Court’s recent ‘blessing’).
Kamala Harris will not destroy America as we know it.
Relax your sphincters, as our friend here always writes. Kamala Harris will be a president who will cement foreign relations and keep the U.S. on a steady track forward. Might have a couple of bumps along the way, but still miles better than the chaos that Trump as president would bring.

I’m deeply and honestly happy to read these comments especially those from GOP registered voters who have intelligence, integrity and a patriotic inclination to vote their conscience. They see Harris as the best choice for our country to level off, refuel and take wing away from the death spiral plotted by Don Trump and his MAGA cult who’ve corrupted the best part of the Republican Party for his personal gain. Those GOP who now as they did earlier and at their great personal sacrifice announce their recognition of Trump as the enemy of democracy, law and order in their midst still stand as heroes and helpful useful citizens in pursuit of raising our nation beyond the clutches of evil selfish intent that Trump and MAGA represent.
They should be rewarded and included in bipartisan spirit in the new administration, given important jobs as they’ve shown loyalty to country , not contrived fealty to a destructive despot Trump for personal gain.

Well in reviewing all the “Back & Forth” above between “The Patriots vs The Dooks” I, ELVIS, feel we’ve all come to the same conclusion (wisely) that be you Patriot or Dook, voting Trump is the choice of wisdom.
****Just a side note … those amoungst us who Identify As Dooks:
You will have the Trump/Vance option on your General Election Ballot – along with the Harris/Goldberg option (or whoever the Dooks end up running with).
WHAT THIS MEANS TO YOU:
This means each and every Registared Dook-A-Crat can seceretly do The Right Thing by voting Trump in the General Election. None of your Dook friends & family ever need know you made “The Sage” Trump decision.

Kamala may not be the best, but how much can it take to beat Trump on his third go-around? He won in 2016. Then people began to see his true colors. He lost in 2020, then backhandedly, and otherwise, tried to subvert the Constitution. Alternate slates of electors…houligans rampaging through the Capitol…begging state officials for “just 11000” more votes. Americans saw this and will resoundedly reject him. Except MAGA and some Evangelicals. He can do nothing wrong by them.
