Conservative Columnist Bret Stephens Says He's Voting for Kamala Harris

During a conversation with Gail Collins, Conservative pundit Bret Stephens revealed that he is voting for Democrat Kamala Harris. 

Stephens, who currently works for the New York Times, is one of the most prominent columnists in the country. And while he certainly leans right, he is not a fan of Donald Trump. He has been a vocal critic of the Republican since he first won the Republican nomination in 2016. 

During the talk, Stephens jokingly asked Collins not to ask him who he's voting for and when she asked for a hint, he responded:

"Kicking and screaming, I’ll cast my ballot for Harris. I really would rather have just sat out Election Day. But Jan. 6 and election denialism are unforgivable. And as my friend Richard North Patterson likes to say, 'Donald Trump is literally bleeping crazy.' And what crazy brings in its wake is JD Vance, whom I find worse than Trump, because he’s just as cynical but twice as bright. And what it also brings in its wake is Tucker Carlson and the Hitler defenders he likes to platform."

Stephens continued by giving Harris some advice, saying: 

"I also think she needs to avoid gimmicks, like her recently announced plan to extend economic help directly and preferentially to Black men, including fully forgivable loans. It’s blatantly unconstitutional, a naked political pander and economically damaging because forgivable loans reduce incentives to work and succeed. It’s also dumb politics: It alienates voters who are tired of identity politics as the dominant mode of liberal thinking and governance. I’m really not going to like her presidency, am I?"
