In late July a reporter visited a Democratic picnic in Newton, Pennsylvania, and asked a number of people whom they planned to support. Many of them were partial to Biden, but all were determined to oust Trump. The one I liked best was Ms. Snyder, a 62-year-old activist. She told the reporter she divorced her husband of 35 years in 2016 over his support of Mr. Trump.
She said, “He’s always been a Republican and I’ve always been a Democrat and that was fine. Then, with the rise of Trump, “He became an angry man. It was like I was watching this white guy who I thought I knew all of a sudden become racist, become all of the things Trump represented which I abhorred.”
Good for her.
