A lifelong Republican voter who cast his ballot for Donald Trump in 2016 now views things quite differently, admitting to CNN on Wednesday night that Hillary Clinton was “absolutely right” about her opponent in that year’s election.

Texas Trey said on Laura Coates Live that his choice back then “wasn’t so much a vote in support of” Trump, but rather against the former secretary of state, who “didn’t have anything to offer that necessarily appealed to me.”

When asked if the events of the past eight years have made him rethink things, Trey responded affirmatively.

“Yes, absolutely,” he said. Clinton, he added, “was absolutely right about everything that she said. Although I didn‘t necessarily pay too much attention to the things that she said, going back, hindsight‘s very clear. Very clear.”

Trey explained that he won’t be supporting Trump this time around because doing so means jeopardizing the country’s institutions.

I got a little suspicious of this guy, so I did a little internet detective work which revealed this guy is truly an outright phony. He is not a Trump voting "lifelong Republican".

He supports abortion, gun control, and homosexual marriage. His old tweets from 2018 are nothing but attacks on Trump, as well as liking other people's trump bashing tweets. He pulled his trump supporting "lifelong republican" schtick in a campaign video for Beto O'Rourke.

In the comments section of that video, his wife slipped up, making a revealing comment that the Trump sticker shown attached to his truck in the video was a fake and was thrown away right after shooting the video. And he made a financial contribution to the Beto O'Rourke campaign.

“We hold these TRUTHS to be self-evident…” Liars have no place in America. Citizens who lie should lose their citizenship.

Geeee… I thought this was about TULSI! being a Russian agent, or Pres. Trump peeing on the bed, or…….

[Pox]

The audience this is presented to is minuscule and irrelevant. CNN. LOL!

It's always the same old shtick that only morons, retards and idiots (current dem voters) would buy in the first place, and has zero chance of changing any voters mind about casting their vote for President Trump.

The laughable part is, they really do believe that tired nonsense they're pushing will actually be believed by average Americans. Insulting our intelligence, as usual.

Many, many years ago when google search was phenomenal there was a GOP debate or televised town hall meeting or something where the audience could ask questions, as an “interested citizen” stood up to ask a question you could google her or him at the same time and see the leftwing organization they headed or represented.

There was also a retired Colonel during that era who was an “I was always a Republican but this time they.....” and if you googled his name you saw how he was brought forth by the national media for more than one previous election, he was a go to guy every few years.
