On Sunday, the speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives backpedaled on his previous support of the former president.
I will not vote for him, but I will not have to. America is tired and there are some people who are morally defensible and upright. "That's what I want to see in my party, and that's what I'm looking for," he said.
"If he was Biden's opponent, I would vote for Trump again because what he did the first time, before COVID, was so good for the country," said the man who once supported Trump.
He was criticized by members of his own party for testifying in front of the House select committee about the attack on the US Capitol.
The Arizona lawmaker told the committee that he doesn't want to be vengeful or light-hearted about the current situation. I swore loyalty to the laws I played with.
A bill that would allow the state legislature to overturn elections has been proposed by some Arizona Republicans. The bill was stopped before it could become law.
He thinks that Trump shouldn't be in office. "I don't think he would be able to use that authority," he said.
Someone who was raised how he was has no idea what a hard life is. People have to go through things in the real world. He doesn't know what bravery is.
The state's August 2 Senate primary features a candidate endorsed by Donald Trump.
