Arnold Schwarzenegger endorses Kamala Harris: ‘I will always be an American before I am a Republican’

Spoken like a true republican.

I'll take that over whatever MAGA is.

Spoken like a true republican.

That aside (I'm not arguing or disagreeing on that point): he is putting country over party which is something very, very few Republicans are capable of doing and even fewer are actually doing. On that alone, I can throw him some respect.

At least he's never put on a red hat, or in any way spoken in favor of the blond antichrist. That's at least something.

Frankly it's the kind of endorsement that is more helpful. If a moderate Republican retains the rhetoric but otherwise rejects Trump, well that might sway moderate Republican voters. If he declared the entire party was mistaken, well he loses those folks and only appeals to the folks that were already in the Harris column.

A republican saying that the Democrats are still bad, but Trump is uniquely worse and has lead the Republican leadership to lose its way, that might appeal to some people that thought to vote r no matter what, even if they had doubts about Trump.

I'll throw in with the other replies. Everything in this comment is political discourse from 2006. Disagreeing with the opposition's policy and at most suggesting that they're dishonest about it.

Right now we're worried about the GOP and their figurehead bringing about one-party rule and loosing the military on their domestic opposition.

I'd want to wind the clock back too, even if it means having to eye roll at conservative rhetoric like this now and then.

This is one of those situations when you just nod and take the endorsement.

"Your guilty conscience may force you to vote Democratic, but deep down inside you secretly long for a cold-hearted Republican to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king!"

he left office with a projected budget surplus

It wasn't a projected surplus, it was an actual surplus for his final two years. I suppose you could say it was also a projected surplus, but Bush II and Dick "Reagan Proved Deficits Don't Matter" Cheney took care of that right quick.

violent crime rates are near a 50-year low!

I wonder fear how much this could change in the near-future. :(

I'm not familiar with all his policies, but he's been good on gerrymandering which is my pet issue, and which I think is key to making progress on pretty much every other issue.

I would pay a lot of money to see Arnold beat up Elon in a cage match. Despite the age gap, it wont even be close.

Don't you miss the days where presidentak candidates stood up for each other .... When GOP McCain defended Obama against outlandish rumors he was a secret Muslim. Seems like those days are long gone.

I think people should behave in this manner and we would live in a better world.

If the country has to lose for your party to win, does it really count?

I figure the Schwarz could take hogan and gibson at the same time.

I actually think the opposite shows more.

"The orange idiot calls me a communist, but even these pieces of shit are voting for me over him."

I think too many people are confusing am endorsement by a piece of shit and supporting that piece of shit, like Cheney's endorsement somehow will mean Harris agrees with him.

All it means is a massive turd is saying "Don't vote for the diaper full of massive fascsist turds".

He still is republican.

It is his authentic belief which will help to persuade others to join him.

I'm not gonna pretend the clemency was an ethical move - though there is a lot to question about that plea agreement - I will say that if you think this is "as crooked as they come" you are woefully sheltered.

Cutting the sentence in half of a political-rival-turned-ally's son is messed up but the hyperbole of calling it "the most crooked you can be" is absurd

Just don’t type the before to that after
