Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, a Republican, has changed course and will support Donald Trump in the presidential election following the failed assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Cox has been a frequent Trump critic and said in an interview he has never voted for Trump. The Republican governor previously said he would not vote for Trump in the 2024 presidential election. “I haven’t voted for the top of the ticket since 2012,” Cox told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in a recent interview. “I’ve certainly had my concerns, one of those is what happened on January 6th. I’m hopeful. I want my party to win. They chose a candidate this time around that was not my first choice, wasn’t my choice last time either. But the party’s spoken,” Cox said. “I’m not going to vote for either presidential candidate this year. I’ll write somebody in as I’ve done in the past,” he added.

And that’s OK. I get it. I’m not writing this letter looking for a position in your Cabinet or a role on your team,” Cox wrote in a letter to President Trump. “But I have loved so many of your policies and firmly believe that our country has suffered over the last four years due to a lack of leadership and is in desperate need of change. I have told everyone that you are going to win the state of Utah and you are going to win the presidency again. You don’t need my help and support to do that,” he continued. “However, you have a chance to do something that people have said is impossible. You have a chance to build a coalition of support that our country has not seen since Ronald Reagan,” he added. “Last Sunday I was feeling incredibly discouraged about our nation. After much prayer and searching about how to help heal our divides, I felt I needed to write former President Trump. I’m hopeful I can help in some small way,” Cox wrote on X.

The Utah governor has been a vocal critic of Trump in the past, including blaming him for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Cox called on the former president to resign following the insurrection, saying it would be “good for the country.” In February, he said it would be a mistake for the party to nominate Trump again for the presidency. On July 11 — two days before Trump was grazed in the ear with a bullet during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania — Cox told CNN’s Kaitlin Collins that he did not plan on voting for either major party candidate in the 2024 election. Instead, the governor said he would write someone in, as he did in 2016 and 2020. Utah Gov. Spencer Cox flip-flops on support for Donald Trump https://t.co/CWk1v2Dqoo — The Salt Lake Tribune (@sltrib) July 19, 2024 “Thank you President Trump. This is a winning message and one our nation desperately needs right now. Utah stands ready to help you heal the division in our nation,” Cox said in response to Trump’s RNC speech.

Utah stands ready to help you heal the division in our nation. https://t.co/ESKq11gHQl — Spencer Cox (@SpencerJCox) July 19, 2024 Per Just the News: Cox said part of the reason he changed his mind on supporting Trump was because of the former president’s speech at the Republican convention on Thursday, where he called for unity in the country, and urged people to “lower the temperature.” “There’s a willingness to try,” he said during a press conference Friday. “That’s all I can ask for and hope for. So, I told him in that letter, I said if you’ll do this, I will do everything I can to help and support you.” Cox most notably butted heads with Trump over the January 6 riot in 2021. The governor also demanded that Trump treat Biden with respect as he faces calls to stop seeking reelection. There have been growing concerns over the president’s mental and physical health since the first presidential debate. Biden most recently tested positive for COVID-19. “By treating President Biden with basic human dignity and respect and by emphasizing unity rather than hate, you will win this election by an historic margin and become one of our nation’s most transformational leaders,” Cox wrote.

I have tried to figure out what is wrong with AOC, but I do believe one of her issues is her illogical hatred towards anyone who disagrees with her, especially Donald Trump. She’s irrational.

Last night, less than a week after an assassin nearly ended his life, Donald Trump delivered a marathon acceptance speech to close out the Republican convention. It began with a riveting description of his experience on Saturday. That section of the speech was, I think we can say with confidence, the most compelling thing to ever happen during a speech at a political convention. Trump seemed like himself, but also like a different man. He was clearly grateful to God that he’s still with us, and he seemed to relish every moment he had with the crowd. That could explain why, at 92 minutes, Trump’s speech was the longest nomination acceptance speech in the history of this country. He even pointed to the same immigration chart that helped save his life on Saturday, and he appeared to pick up right where he left off in Butler. The address was heartfelt. It was unifying, especially by the standards of a Trump speech. And it was yet more bad news for Democrats hoping to win any contested election in November, anywhere on the ballot. Donald Trump is a nominee who enjoys, without question, the support of a unified party and tens of millions of devoted supporters all over the country. The same obviously cannot be said for the man who is (at least for now) running against Donald Trump. At this point, the contrast between the two candidates is as clear as it could possibly be. Joe Biden is not compos mentis. He’s not humbled, nor has he ever been humble. He doesn’t have the support of his own party or his longtime friends and allies. Everyone from George Clooney to Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama have knifed him in the back. And now, according to the New York Times and various other outlets across the political spectrum, Biden’s finally considering dropping out of the race. Newsmax’s Mark Halperin has gone further with his reporting, claiming that Biden has already made the decision to step aside. Watch:   This is obviously a fast-moving situation, and it’s quite possible that, any moment now, Joe Biden will announce he’s stepping aside. Then again, it’s possible that all of these reports are planted by Barack Obama’s team, to further pressure Biden to quit the race. In either event, it’s a humiliating situation for Joe Biden and his inner circle of advisers, which now consists of an openly corrupt crackhead and a narcissistic fake doctor with an education degree. All this is to say, it’s still technically conceivable that Joe Biden — without any support from his own voters or colleagues, and without any money from donors — will somehow power through this dementia and cobble together a presidential run. That campaign would be like watching the Hindenburg in slow motion. It’s not especially likely at the moment but the possibility is there, at least for now. All of this drama is unprecedented in modern politics. Nevertheless, it’s important to understand one point about this palace intrigue: None of it is about the fact that Joe Biden is old and senile. That’s the claim you’re hearing, but it’s not true. The premise is false. Democrats aren’t calling on Joe Biden to step aside because they just discovered that he’s demented. They’ve known it all along, and so has the media. They were perfectly ready and willing to install Joe Biden for another four years, knowing very well that he cannot do the job.  The only thing that’s changed is public awareness of the extent of Biden’s mental decline — something that should have been obvious to the public all along. But it wasn’t obvious to everyone, because Democrats went to great lengths to obscure information about Biden’s mental status from voters. The self-described “defenders of democracy” took it upon themselves to lie and deceive the electorate so they could keep their puppet in power. But the debate revealed everything they’d been trying to hide. And Donald Trump, by the grace of God, was not assassinated last weekend.  WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show So here we are. Democrats have no choice but to turn on Biden. They’re engaging in a historic effort — post-primary season but pre-convention — to oust their party’s democratically chosen candidate from their ticket. If this effort succeeds, it’ll set quite a precedent for the Democrats. It’ll mean that winning the Democratic presidential primary comes with an asterisk — which is that the voters’ decision doesn’t really matter. The party elites can remove you at any time they like. This is what they’re going for. And they’re all-in at this point. Pretty much every significant politician in the party has made it clear that they want Biden gone. At the same time, Democrats also appear to be trying to cover-up the extent to which they lied about Biden’s senility for the past several years. They’re doing it quietly but very aggressively. As Trump was speaking last night in Milwaukee, Joe Biden’s DOJ filed a motion in court to oppose the public release of audio tapes of Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur. That interview, you may remember, involved Joe Biden repeatedly forgetting key biographical details about his own life, including the year his son died. It was an interview that went so poorly that Hur decided Joe Biden was effectively incapable of being prosecuted, because the jury would sympathize with his senility.  But as Trump delivered his acceptance speech at the RNC, the DOJ claimed that the audio of that interview can’t be released due to, “pending investigations and reasonably anticipated future investigations.” But that doesn’t make sense. The transcript is already available. Hur has already testified about his interview with Biden. And the audio is clearly newsworthy and relevant to the public interest, because it would show the extent of the mental decline of the president of the United States.  The only conceivable reason to hide the audio from the public at this point is if it’s different from the transcript that the DOJ released. That would make sense. Did the DOJ sanitize the transcript in any way? Does the audio contain damning evidence of Joe Biden’s mental decline that hasn’t been revealed publicly yet? Those are fair questions. And at this hour, the DOJ is doing everything it can to avoid answering them. At this point, it’s fair to conclude that they’re not simply covering up Joe Biden’s senility. They’re covering up their role in covering up Joe Biden’s senility, too. The cover up is worse than the crime, as they say. So what about the cover up of the cover up?  You might remember that, just a few months ago, Adam Schiff — who has now publicly called on Biden to step aside — grilled Robert Hur about his comments in his report about Joe Biden’s obvious cognitive failures. Schiff suggested that Hur had completely made up his observations about Biden because he wanted to hurt Biden politically. Watch: Adam Schiff — now calling on Biden to drop out due to his declining cognitive condition — just three months ago was raging at Robert Hur for daring to include an accurate assessment of Biden’s cognitive condition in his report. The Big Lie about Biden’s mental fitness was… pic.twitter.com/Q6MCbVzrKs — Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) July 18, 2024 Now, just a few months later, Schiff admits that Joe Biden has major cognitive issues, and he needs to step aside. But of course, nothing changed with Joe Biden in the past few months. Adam Schiff knew during that hearing that everything Hur said in his report was accurate. He was just hoping to deceive the electorate for long enough to keep the Democrats’ puppet in office. But we’re still not allowed to listen to the audio of Biden’s interview with Hur, probably because that would be even worse for Biden than the transcript. So the cover-up continues. Even as Democrats admit what we knew all along, they’re still hiding information from us. But there’s some tape that Democrats can’t hide, because it’s all over the internet. For months, Democrats told us that Joe Biden was fine, and that only Right-wing propaganda outlets would claim otherwise. Here’s one of my favorite before-and-after videos, showing MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace pre-debate and post-debate. She begins by saying it’s a “cheap fake” to say that Joe Biden was lost on stage at a fundraiser, even though the video clearly shows that he was frozen until Barack Obama led him away. (This was the fundraiser that George Clooney attended, and said Biden was visibly shot for the whole night). Then, post-debate, she’s talking ominously about how Joe Biden has lost the support of his party. Watch:   In the span of about a week, videos of Joe Biden’s decline went from an “insidious trend” to something Democrats couldn’t deny anymore. This is the kind of whiplash you get if you watch MSNBC. But the fact that Democrat Party propagandists even tried to deceive their viewers like this in the first place tells you everything you need to know about their views on “democracy.” They don’t believe the voters have a right to know anything. They will lie to their faces, again and again, with no shame whatsoever. Not a single Democrat politician or media personality has apologized for lying, deliberately, about Joe Biden’s incompetence for the past few years. Nancy Pelosi, who’s now pressuring Biden to step aside, certainly hasn’t apologized, nor is she capable of doing so. Pelosi was telling us just a year ago that Joe Biden’s age was irrelevant, and that he’s youthful like a “kid”. Watch: Nancy Pelosi was saying Joe Biden is “just a kid” to her at 80-years-old, because she’s three years older than he is. The problem is that people’s brains don’t all age the same way. Some people develop dementia by the age of 80, and some people don’t. And Nancy Pelosi knew, when she gave that interview, that Joe Biden had developed dementia. But laughed it off, and so did Joe Scarborough. Now both of them have the new memo, and they’re saying the exact opposite. And speaking of Scarborough, his about-face is actually one of the more striking ones. I’ve played some of these videos before, but it’s worth repeating because of how over-the-top it was. Four months ago, Scarborough was saying that Biden is “sharper than he’s ever been.” Even after the debate, Scarborough was defending Biden. Now he’s saying he has to go. Here’s the before and after: Whether it’s Joe Scarborough or Nancy Pelosi or Adam Schiff or the DOJ, all of these people know exactly what they’re doing. They engaged in a concerted effort to hide Joe Biden’s dementia, and now they’re pretending it’s a major issue — but only because they can’t deny it anymore. This is a cover-up that reveals exactly how much the self-appointed defenders of democracy really care about “democracy,” and this country. They were planning to launch us headlong into a constitutional crisis with a late-stage dementia patient starting a fresh four-year term. This is the same party that rigged a primary against Bernie Sanders, and that prevented anyone from debating Joe Biden ahead of the primaries this year. They have no interest in democracy. They don’t care what voters want. Whoever they find to replace Biden, remember that their ideal candidate isn’t any more competent or intelligent than Joe Biden is right now. Their ideal candidate is one they can control just as easily as they controlled him.
