  1. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.newsweek.com/pennsylvania-republican-backs-kamala-harris-slams-donald-trump-again-1939898) reduced by 79%. (I’m a bot)

    > A Pennsylvania Republican committee official has said he will vote for Kamala Harris instead of Donald Trump and has subsequently received backlash from his community.

    > In an interview with NBC 10, Matthew McCaffery, the Republican municipal chair in Upper Merion Township for the Montgomery County Republican Committee, said that his endorsement of Harris led to a complaint being lodged against him and discussions of a disciplinary hearing if he did not resign.

    > McCaffery, a Republican since he was 18 years old, is encouraging other Republicans to vote for Harris, and wrote an op-ed for the Philadelphia Inquirer about his previous support for Trump, and why he believes it's important to elect Harris.

  2. The “oh shit” moment. Kamala is too popular and gaining steam.

    If they don’t float to the middle, the (R) races down ticket are going to get their asses kicked.

    Kamalas stances and ideas aren’t new. Republicans trashed them then. Their hard-line conservatism is on record and they’re scared.

    He probs did it for survival but, this is a promising sign the tectonic plates are finally beginning to break away from the toxic maga cult.

    Nice. Otherwise some weird wording on the article:

    > McCaffrey stated that while he previously voted for the rich asshole in 2016, he felt he could no longer support him after the attack on the Capitol on January 6, and subsequently voted for President Joe Biden in 2020.
    >

    Seems like the author forgot that January 6th, 2021 happened after the election lol.

    There’s going to be quite a few rats jumping ship this time around to try and survive politically and it is going to be funny as shit to watch them all squirm and backtrack
