GOP Ex-Rep. Adam Kinzinger Excoriates His Party at DNC for Backing Trump
Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who has become a vocal opponent of Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election and who sat on the House Jan. 6 Committee, implored members of his party to “put country first” by voting for Vice President Kamala Harris.
One of several Republicans who took to the DNC stage this week to warn of a second Trump term, Kinzinger told the crowd that he was “proud to be in the trenches with you as part of this sometimes awkward alliance we have to defend truth [and] defend democracy and decency.”
Kinzinger confirmed that after his twelve years in Congress as a Republican, he still is one—but recent events have led him to a realization.
