Showing Original Post only (View all)Former Michigan governor Rick Snyder: I am a Republican vote for Biden [View all]
I had the opportunity to interact with Mr. Biden when he served as vice president. My interactions were always constructive and respectful. He has shown the desire to heal a deeply divided nation; has demonstrated strong moral character and empathy; and he seems willing to listen to people who have different perspectives from his own.
For years, I mentioned in most of my speeches the need to bring back civility to our nation. We will not continue to be the greatest nation in the world if we cant get along among ourselves. We have only become more divided over the past four years. We need a leader who believes in civility and bringing Americans closer together.
While I am endorsing Joe Biden for president, I am still a Republican who also will be publicly supporting Republican candidates at the local, state and federal level.

I'm in Lansing and Biden signs far outnumber trump signs, but I do live within a mile of MSU.

That's all well and good, but this Michigander says, "Fuck you." He wrecked our state.

If a jackass like Snyder wants to vote for Joe Biden, I'm not talking him out of it.
