Nationally recognized conservative commentator Michael Medved says he will likely vote for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in November.
Appearing KIRO Newsradio, Medved said, when asked if he would vote for Harris, “I’m sort of reluctant to say it, but it’s obvious that that unless something comes out in the campaign that is very different from what was presented last night, I think that’s the right decision.”
Medved said that although the Democratic National Convention (DNC) wasn’t perfect, it was a home run.
“I think this was an epically well-arranged, well-presented convention because part of what they’re doing is trying to identify as the party of joy, the party of positivity,”
“One of the things that the Democrats did at their convention was they recaptured the flag.
I can’t think of any democratic event that has been so nakedly patriotic, with one person after another coming up and talking about how I love this country, how this is the greatest country in the world.”
Host Gee Scott asked Medved to give him two or three policies of Donald Trump that he was most excited about.
“I’m excited in the other way, I dread them. And the one that comes to mind immediately is this idea of a tariff, a tariff of 10% on everything,” Medved explained. “He’s now said he wants to put a tariff of 60% on Chinese goods. And this is not money that the company or the other country is supposed to pay. It’s money that is going to be saddled for American consumers. That’s who pays for these tariffs.”
Medved also does not agree with Trump’s appraoch to NATO. “For President Trump to say that he doesn’t care, let’s let Vladimir Putin do anything the hell he wants to NATO allies is outrageous.”

He isn’t a conservative of any kind if he would vote for Harris/Walz.
Nothing further needs saying.
One by one, the neocons have to “come out”.
Any way we can start deporting them?
My point in the post above exactly. He is, and has been something, but...it isn’t “conservative”.
Yes, they are as susceptible to TDS as anyone else I guess.
Way back in the day I actually owned a full set of history lectures on cassette. Brilliant. But he has lost his ever lasting mind.
Yeah sure Michael, there’s so much ‘JOY’ in price controls and bread lines.
No one claiming to be a conservative can even non-seriously entertain voting for Kommiela.
The founding fathers thought the way of paying for government things was tariffs, they didn’t have income taxes
He isn’t “compromised”. He’s a fellow traveler.
I think Trump’s biggest challenge in this election is white voters.
What a FREAKING moron! DUMBASS JEW WHO DOESNT CARE ABOUT ISRAEL!
Exactly, I keep reading that 200 staffers from Bush Jr. Administration will be endorsing Harris, potentially including Bush himself.
I pay little attention to the rumor, except to say, if Bush and 200 people who worked for him actually do that, it will confirm they are not Conservative and used the Republican Party to get elected and are pissing on the rest of us who voted for him twice.
Medved fought against Trump in 2015-2016, and in 2020.
Did Mikey sit up all night passing this tiny, irrelevant bit of information the the far left “media”. I’ll bet “most of his best friends” are Jamaican/Injuns.
Micheal's no false Christian as that implies... Michael's a Jewish liberal falsely calling himself a conservative.
Looked like a foul ball bunt on their third strike to me.
Any way we can start deporting them?
I don't see why not. Most have another country to which they have a right to return already. :-)
Medved always came off as an insufferable know-it-all on his radio show, to the point that it exhausted his listeners.
Abortion is enough for a real Christian or a real follower of Christ to vote Republican.
