Arnold Schwarzenegger, former Republican governor, says Kamala Harris wants to avoid “more years of bullshit” under Trump

Arnold Schwarzenegger announced on Wednesday that he will vote for Kamala Harris in the presidential election.

The Republican former governor of California said in a statement that he is “not really an advocate,” explaining that he doesn't trust most politicians, hates politics more than ever right now and would like to just “tune out.”

“But I can’t,” wrote the 77-year-old. “Because rejecting the election results is as un-American as it gets. For someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows that America is the shining city on a hill, it's a (sic) Trash can for the world is so unpatriotic it makes me angry.”

“I will always be an American before I become a Republican,” Schwarzenegger continued. “That’s why I’m voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz this week.”

Schwarzenegger acknowledged that he “doesn't like either party right now,” accused Republicans of increasing deficits and expressed concern that Democratic policies are leading to more crime in cities. He said that Americans should be “p—ed”!

“But a candidate who doesn't respect your vote unless it's for him, a candidate who sends his supporters to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability “To work on passing anything else.” a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but no one else, a candidate who believes Americans who disagree with him are bigger enemies than China “, Russia or North Korea – that will not solve our problems,” Schwarzenegger wrote.

A Trump victory, he added, would mean “four more bull years of no results, making us increasingly angry, divided and hateful.”

“We must close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know former President Trump will not do that,” Schwarzenegger wrote. “He will divide, he will offend, he will find new ways to be even more un-American than he already was, and we the people will get nothing but more anger.”

“I want to move forward as a country, and although I have many disagreements with their platform, I think this is only possible with Harris and Walz,” he concluded, advising voters to vote even if they disagree with him.

Schwarzenegger said Last November, he declared that Trump and President Joe Biden were “both flawed” and that the country needed to “find new leaders.” In 2019, he said he doubted He would vote for Trump in the 2020 election, straight up explained he would not vote for Trump on the eve of the 2016 election.

“For the first time since becoming a citizen in 1983, I will not vote for the Republican presidential candidate,” Schwarzenegger announced at the time.

Schwarzenegger and Trump have previously shot at each other in public. Trump mocked the actor's short-lived moderation The Celebrity Apprentice in 2017, claimed in a tweet This year, Schwarzenegger “did a really bad job as governor of California, and even worse on the Apprentice…but at least he tried hard!”
