Boo hoo, he was a fucking idiot and had to be kicked in the balls to wake up. Guess he's better than the KKK, Nazis, criminal corporate profiteers and white militia types because the hate keeps them voting drumpf & repug, but he's certainly no role model for anyone and instead is a cautionary tale about pure ignorance.

Everyone makes mistakes. The rarity today is the admission of error.

We should be pleased for the repentant and gladly accept the help of the converted. This is no time for ideological purity. Trump is too great a threat to the Republic.

It just pisses me off that so many fucking white assholes were so clueless and fucked us so hard in 2016. I welcome him to the land of sanity which he finally discovered.

The sane need no guide. Those lost in madness need to be shown the way back to the fact-based world.

In recent weeks, I have started to have some hope that others are seeing their error.

and it took guts. Glad that he had the moral courage to leave the "party of Trump," as today's GOP is so corrupted it bears no resemblance to the past.

Hope others follow his lead.

I have many complaints with Trump and Trumpers. One of these is the inability to admit mistakes.
