Surge of Republican Support for Kamala Harris

A group of former Republicans, including ex-Rep. Adam Kinzinger and Florida businessman Rich Logis, are actively endorsing Democrat Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention (DNC), highlighting a shift among some GOP members disillusioned with Donald Trump. Logis, who once fervently supported Trump, has publicly stated that he recognizes the divisive impact of Trump's leadership and now identifies as a member of 'Republicans for Harris'. In contrast, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley continues to support Trump despite her earlier criticisms, leading to the formation of a group called 'Haley Voters for Harris', which reflects her supporters' dissatisfaction with Trump's dominance in the GOP. Meanwhile, former President Barack Obama is set to speak at the DNC, emphasizing Biden's legacy and advocating for Harris in a pivotal election year. Additionally, police officers who defended the Capitol during the January 6 attacks are campaigning for Harris, stressing the ongoing threat Trump poses to democracy. This complex landscape highlights the growing rift within the Republican Party as some members pivot towards Democratic candidates.
