Ex-Republican and Washington Post columnist Max Boot added to his long roster of pieces Monday announcing his sole support for Democrats.
"We have to destroy the party in order to save it," he wrote."As a lifelong Republican until Nov. 9, 2016 — and as a foreign policy adviser to three Republican presidential candidates — it gives me no joy to write those words. It’s true that the party had long-standing problems — conspiracy-mongering, racism, hostility toward science — that Donald Trump was able to exploit."
A day earlier, in a piece headlined,"I’m not just voting against Trump — I’m voting for Biden. Here are eight reasons," Boot said he was"greatly impressed" by Biden after once fearing he was"too old" and"too undisciplined.""14 reasons I’ll vote for any Democrat over Trump." He added that same year another story entitled,"For aiding Trump’s abuse of power, the GOP deserves to be voted out of existence.
In his 2016 endorsement of Clinton, Boot noted his streak of voting for Republican candidates was over. "A lot of my Republican friends are incredulous to learn that #ImWithHer. In truth, I’m more than a little surprised myself," he wrote. Other Boot headlines include,"The GOP has become the stupid party — and proud of it,""How Republicans manage to be both anarchists and authoritarians," and"Think Republicans in Washington are bad? They’re far worse at the state level."
