Arnold Schwarzenegger is diverging from his political allegiance to support Kamala Harris before the upcoming Election Day … cautioning that another term under Trump would be catastrophic for the nation.
The actor and former politician shared an extensive letter outlining his choice to back Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, on X Wednesday … emphasizing that this is a rare endorsement granted only a few days ahead of November 5.
Even as the former Governor of California, under the Republican banner, Schwarzenegger expressed his disdain for politics and a lack of faith in most politicians.
While Schwarzenegger acknowledged that he doesn’t align with either political faction currently, he shared his growing worries about the implications of a Donald Trump victory next week.
In his message, he stated … “Dismissing the outcomes of an election represents the very essence of being un-American. For someone like me, who communicates with individuals globally and still believes that America is the alternative shining city, labeling it as a mere trash can on the world stage is unbelievably unpatriotic, and it makes me rage. I will always identify as an American before being defined by a party affiliation.”
He elaborated, criticizing Trump for instigating the insurrection attempt on January 6, 2021, and for painting those who oppose him as enemies of the state.
He continued … “This would simply lead to four more years of chaos without any positive outcomes, making us even angrier, more divided, and filled with hatred. We need to shut this chapter of American history once and for all, and I recognize that former President Trump won’t facilitate that.”
In closing his letter, Schwarzenegger urged everyone to head out and cast their votes … emphasizing the need to “leave this nonsense in the past.”
