A Michigan mayor and longtime Republican has decided to renounce President Donald Trump in favor of former Vice President Joe Biden. The Chicago Tribune has released a profile on Michael Taylor, mayor of Sterling Heights, MI, which is situated in the middle of Macomb County, where many midwestern voters supported Trump in 2016 after voting for Barack Obama twice. Taylor has established himself as a prominent local Tea Party figure, who has always voted Republican, but he confirmed he will support Biden in the Michigan primary and the 2020 election. “I think Joe Biden is the candidate who can unify all of the Democrats, and he’s the candidate who can appeal to moderates and Republicans like me who don’t want to see four more years of President Trump,” Taylor said. Looking back on voting for Trump in 2016, Taylor called the election a “referendum” on Washington politicians and others who didn’t seem to care about the issues midwesterners are concerned about. Taylor said Biden could win over his blue-collar constituents if he explains how his policies would be more beneficial to them than Trump’s, but he also referred to the president as “deranged.” “I remember thinking this Trump thing is insane, but when it was down to him and Hillary, I kind of said, ‘Well, you are a Republican, and yeah he’s nuts, but maybe he’ll get better and you know he’s going to lower taxes…I slowly talked myself into it. ‘He can’t seriously be this deranged once he gets in there,’ and he’s even more deranged now than I thought then. So, I take the blame. I voted for him.” The piece goes on to explore how Biden might have the upper hand on Senator Bernie Sanders in the Michigan primary, though it could be difficult for Democrats to win the state in 2020 without a compelling argument about economic interests.
Poster Comment: So one little kiddie opportunist who is a political nobody ("Mayor of Sterling Heights" is a JOKE) completely controls your feeble mind with one remark. Pathetic

Well, that explains what our investigative reporters have been doing -- looking high and low across the country for some public official to trash Trump.
His mom threatened to cut off his allowance if he didn't support Slow Joe?
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Gotta be a hate America pinko to vote for either of these commies.
It's like running to the dock to get a last-minute great deal on a steerage-class ticket for the Titanic's sailing.
