He voted for Trump, twice. Now he wants to take down MAGA and the “pathetic” Tommy Tuberville

In an interview with Salon, Kyle Sweetser, a former Republican turned Democrat running for Senate, expressed his disdain for Trump and his followers. Sweetser, a small business owner from Mobile, Alabama, highlighted his shift from the GOP due to Trump’s policies on free trade and his actions that threatened American democracy. He discussed his decision to support the Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, and his goals to challenge U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville in the upcoming election. Sweetser emphasized the need for change in Alabama’s one-party system, focusing on issues like poverty, healthcare, and environmental concerns. He rejected the idea of adopting a “Trump-lite” approach, instead advocating for a campaign that represents the state’s interests and addresses critical issues affecting its residents. Sweetser also highlighted the importance of holding the Republican Party accountable for its policies and actions.
