This insight is very interesting - do his 'politics' make that okay especially for people from Alabama, or were you just stating you are from Alabama because Kyle is from Alabama as well? Regardless, it is precisely correct - all of Tr**p's words and behaviour pretty much bring out the absolute worst in people. It is the 'divide & conquer' political tactic which is widely used by any political figure attempting to obtain power over people. When it is 'perfectly fine' for people to be explicitly hateful, prejudice, racist, etc. towards each other, the divisions between groups of people grow and eventually groups become isolated from each other. Creating these divisions makes it very easy for the power-hungry individual to spread lies for the purpose of sowing fear between groups, driving them further and further apart, and the outcome is often each group viewing the 'other' as inhuman. This is precisely what the power-hungry individual is attempting to achieve - they use fear-mongering and division to take control over specific groups, which the ultimate goal of obtaining control over all groups (ie. the whole country). Dictators of the past and present all use this tactic - the very reason why so many around the world are worried if he is to be re-elected, and why so many in the US are trying to warn everyone.

This dude could be me. I, too, am a former Trump supporter living in Alabama... I'll vote Biden, and not third party or stay home, because I want to maximize the dynamic of making sure Trump can't win... third party or not voting wouldn't do that. Yes, I know my Alabama non-republican vote means nothing for POTUS but it's the principle.
I think your vote does means something. Trump won with 62% in both 2016 and 2020. Even if he wins, if he wins with less than that, his ego will be hurt and that’s already something. So ✌️
This is one thing that I like a lot about liberals like David Pakman, Luke Beasley, Jordan Klepper etc: they don't view republicans as "sworn enemies" by default, but rather as people who they try to bring to their senses.
Most liberals are by default, liberal. They don't hate Republicans by default, they're liberal minded meaning forgiving and accepting. What liberals hate is the hate... The bad people who now believe they he care blanc to be bad & hurt others just trying to live their lives in peace & liberty.
@@margaretjones7954 outside the box phrase originated in early 1970s. To think outside of the box is to push your ideas beyond the usual limitations or boundaries of a situation to come up with a solution. The phrase is used as a verb or gerund.

It's much less than half of America and dwindling every day. The problem (in 2016 anyway) is getting people to vote for someone else. In states like Alabama the racial and cultural resentments among white people are so strong that even an obvious narcissist who promises to put the white man back in charge is appealing. Dare I say it: Brexit was driven by much the same thing.
Trump gives people permission to let out negative impulses, or ideas within themselves; more ore less, 'the dark side'. I'll give you an example. When Trump first ran for the presidency there were some brave hecklers, while he was speaking. Trump told the audience, that someone should take care of the hecklers, and if someone crossed line and was arrested for assaulting the heckler, he would take care of the bail. So in other words, he would support a criminal reaction. In another case, he told a audience of police officers that it was okay, if they hit a suspects head against the police car's frame while arresting a suspect of a violent crime. I can see that happening and might even do it myself, if I were a police officer. But publicly saying that it was okay, is another matter. I took note, that he called witnesses who testified against him, in the his first impeachment trial; "human scum"; when in fact the witnesses had strong credentials, such as having an Ivy League degree, distinguished military honors, etc. So that opens the door to call others various, negative terms.
Every time I hear a person describe themselves as "fiscally conservative" as a basis of why they're Republican, I cringe hard. In my lifetime there haven't been any fiscally conservative Republicans in Washington DC. It's mind boggling. Maybe "fiscally conservative" just means they hate rich people paying taxes. Other than that, there's no connection whatsoever.
I checked GDP growth all the way back to 1980 because I didn't want to leave Reagan out because he used to be the rights God of conservatism. Anyway, from then til now the Dems have a full 5% more growth than under Republicans and that doesn't even include all of Bidens growth yet!!!! Believe it or not, Carter had as much gdp growth as Reagan even with the Arab oil embargo that should have spurred our pursuit of clean energy alternatives 50 years ago!
It's hard to acknowledge that you were wrong or believed the wrong thing, and it takes a lot of guts to admit it to a small group of friends, much less a national audience. I admire it, and I hope that others follow his lead.
Yeah, I have respect for this guy. Not because he is voting Biden but he seems to have integrity and morals. Something that seems to be missing from MAGA. Dignity and common decency has been lost on that side of the fence. Following a narcissist is rarely a good idea in any aspect of life. I think the more someone is invested the harder it is to admit they are wrong generally speaking. And they are quite invested.
The more ego you have, the harder it is to admit that you were wrong. That’s why I think it’s harder for straight men to admit they’re wrong than women and LGBTI people, who tend to be a lot better at that. Straight men could learn a lot from gay men if they took the time to speak to them.
The ability to admit you're wrong is an extremely mature and frankly necessary part of the process of being able to learn and do things in the world, and should be respected. It doesn't necessarily forgive everyone for everything they've done but people need to be given the space and support to change.
@@shang0h 100%! MAGA and Trump have given some of us PTSD and anxiety! When one of them comes out and admits wrong… it helps those of us who are negatively affected defo!
I'm very impressed with his introspection. I also work in a steel fabrication company, so we had a lot of the same effects on us as this guy talks about, but I'm the only person at my workplace that doesn't support Trump even now. I've even asked them why and they said that they felt the business did better under rupublicans generally. It's reassuring to see this guy talking like this.

@@leothenomad5675 To me he seems like he is probably middle-management in a bigger company or the owner-operator of his own small business. In both cases he could be university educated or not. Either way he doesn't seem like working class in the factory floor hourly wage sense.
@@leothenomad5675 The way he dresses and talks are indeed indicators to that effect even if unreliable. More significantly, however, he talks about managing a business.
The infrastructure bill specifically benefits the construction industry. Biden is outdoing Reagan by not only talking the talk. Reagan's appeal was to racism; Biden's appeal is to actual food on the table.
In the beginning of Trumps reign as President, I sent an email to my nephew about a really funny speech Trump was making, thinking he would get a chuckle over it. Well did I ever get blasted back from my nephew! I didn’t even know he was pro Trump at the time! He started riding me up one side and down the other! I couldn’t figure out what gave him such an angry demeanour, so like you said, it was like Trump gave everybody permission to be a jerk! We still don’t talk to this day! Lol
Unforgivable means you don't forgive Sweetster either. He is part to blame for this country going in the crapper..

And once they admit that, they are no longer a trump supporter. I believe his support is dwindling faster and faster, and we just all have to get out and do our part by voting blew up and down the ballot
Still a serious, serious problem. He has a LOT of learning to do. Fiscal responsibility from Republicans, ha! Social program reform to reduce debt?.....Definitely a life filled with privilege. He only turned from Trump because it hit him in his pocketbook. This man STILL does not get it.
@@denise8016He's on the right track though. You don't change your mind on lifelong positions overnight. I was raised by ultra conservative parents and voted for trump in 2016. It was around 2018 that I started realizing how insane and illogical my beliefs were. I'm still on my journey of re-examining my positions and trying to find the truth. Though I'd consider myself left of center at this point
Kyle, I also live here in Alabama and I appreciate your honesty in recognizing what Trump has done...allowed bad people to openly behave badly without consequences. I applaud you for acknowledging this fact....thank you for voting Biden 2024!
No such thing as a sane Republican any longer. Only reasonable conservatives at this point. If they choose to continue to identify as Republican, they identify as trump
The only reason why Trump lives in Florida now is cause New York doesn't want him here. There are alot of Magats here in Florida. I'm only here cause of cold in NY. I miss NY.
As a Democrat, I have to say I admire this Man from Alabama becoming enlightened about the things brought about due to Trumps never-ending rhetoric and instigations.....misinformation that takes hold quickly, people being outrageous to people they don't even know, etc...I hope you get a lot of views for this.
KUDOS to Kyle Sweetser!! We may not agree on many political issues but I do appreciate his willingness to admit he made a mistake voting for Trump twice and not repeating that mistake for a third time. Hopefully he will open some eyes and change some minds before the election.
I've been pretty angry at trump supporters honestly even though I do realize that it is in large part a cult and what is needed is compassion. It's hard for me to feel compassion for people who are a threat to my future because they are going to vote for someone who is so dangerous to this country and myself. But I can see in this interview how that is needed and I really did feel a lot of compassion for this man. Thank you for this interview, I miss those days where we could just talk like people. 😢Thank you for voting for Biden. You are doing the right thing.
I once lived in Alabama and am now in Georgia. I pray and hope that other people in that state open up and search out what’s really going on. The truth will set you free! 💙 💙 💙 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸!!!!
@LookatRealNumberes If you go back and look at your own spelling and sentence structure and rambling incoherent thoughts, do you see yourself the way we see you? "And into your cult isn't politics in ra cult." Huh? What? "Isn't needing to check certain sources a cult" No, quite the opposite.
@LookatRealNumberes Is English your native language? Are you old enough to be on youtube? Are you old enough to vote? You originally said "check certain sources", that's called doing your homework and not just taking what you are told at face value, as opposed to those who do the opposite and double check nothing and just believe what their cult leader or party tells them.
This guy deserves massive credit for the humility he's demonstrating by being interviewed like this. He's also giving us a masterclass in what exactly we're dealing with here: Trump supporters and conservatives more broadly don't actually think through policy positions except for when they are personally affected in adverse ways. The fact that his own ideas about regulation fall apart after even just 10 seconds of scrutiny didn't mean anything to him *until he* was affected by a completely different issue (the steel tariffs). Only then did he reexamine his own beliefs and give them the 10 seconds' worth of consideration required to realize were total bogus. what we need to take from this is that conservatives are gullible, selfish, and content in their ignorance. Interviews like David's, conducted with compassion and grace (that someone like this frankly doesn't deserve, after the damage he's done to the country I love), are hugely instructive and valuable. Thanks David.
@@pingamalinga Not so much, he still looks to republican ideas on things like national debt for instance, when they've been the ones who historically increase it. He's just not very politically literate at all.
This man has the right approach to changing hearts and minds. Person to person communication is more effective than endless ads on the radio, internet, and TV.
As someone who lives in a different country, it has been both fascinating and frightening to watch the impact that Trump has had on the people in the US. This man gives me hope that many previous Trump voters can and will reflect of the impact of their past decisions, and turn it around this time to enable the political situation to change. I applaud his journey and his courage to talk openly about it.
Why do you think Vivek, Tulsi, JFK Jr., Elon Musk,….. are siding with Trump, over Kamala? When I first saw Trump was running for POTUS in June 2015,… I thought he's the guy. I also considered Ben Carson. I voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Life is good, even great,.. better with Trump, worse with the modern era Democrats at the helm. Democrats are the party fomenting emotional divisiveness, and lax border enforcement.
That's what stopped the red wave. Covid gave Democrats the edge. That is why Democrats stopped trying to convince Republicans to vaccinate. I have friends that think no one really died during COVID and the dying is happening now because of the vaccine. The believe millions of people are dying now but the government is hiding all the deaths. They think the vaccine has killed over a billion people but the world is hiding it.
@@jefferyschicI'm sorry for your loss. Must be awful. I lost an aunt to covid. Was horrible. I hope your family is healing from the loss. Hope you have a nice day
Well because he is rich and famous and also some will never vote Dem anyway. I know i will never vote for a republican POTUS candidate again in my life no matter who the Dem candidate happens to be.
THank you Kyle for speaking out so eloquently how your vote was changed. Appreciate it was multifaceted and influenced on many factors. It gives me hope for our country. Critical thinking will keep our country safe and sane.
A lot of people think tariffs charge foreign companies and governments. They charge us companies. Those tariffs hurt a lot of middle american farmers .
This guy needs to be on tour, telling his story. He's got the charisma, very likeable and level-headed. The south isn't all stereotype and this is one of the good ones.
Those of us who have been against Trump from the beginning need to give some space to those who voted for Trump and are now against him. It’s very hard for them to admit they were wrong (human nature) and if we don’t allow them back into the fold without getting in their faces and mocking them they will never come back to reality. People make mistakes and we need to accept them back without attacking them.
You are right. I once was dumb enough to vote Republican, that is, for Reagan, until I realized what the Rep Party stood for, and what kind of a man Reagan was - no integrity, lying, no charitable bone in his body, no conscience, no compassion, i.e. words he became more of a Republican than a Republican.
I agree with you. It's also a tough battle to back away and be polite as most of us used to be to each other. Sad to say. I look in the mirror and think, gosh, let's get back to talking and not arguing to the point of viciousness. A friend told me that anybody that makes a "sacrifice" of any kind that isolates themselves from family and friends etc. need to be given some space because they are then embarrassed.....and that's ok. So we got to take them in, forgive them if we can, and let them shake off years of serious commitments. Like receiving someone back from a cult. Let them know it's safe to come back home and that we love them. Open our arms. They need to know they are safe to come back to their friends and family and so on....even though they may have said and done some horrible things. Peace. Thanks. Your sentiment is extremely valuable right now. Spread that sentiment. As we speak, I have to come to peace too...leave what anger is left and just be there for others. Tough times ahead but with folks like you reminding us that we can repair, reform, and come together united and peaceful is important. Around the world even. Hope. Your sentiment has hit me to the core. This is the Americas I remember. The goal is peace.
@@randymulder9105 exactly!! We have to share a country, they aren’t going away and they aren’t all bad people. Some of them are my friends and family members. People need to be reminded that none of us are perfect and when we make mistakes we need to be forgiven, not just admonished. Now I’m not naive and do realize that some of his supporters are racist, misogynistic etc and that’s harder to forgive but none of us should be on such a pedestal that we can’t forgive the rest no matter how blind they seemed to us. Thank you for your kind words!!

What a fantastic interview! I hope many many people see it and understand there’s no shame in re-evaluating and changing your mind like this former Trump supporter has shown.
I have pondered this for some time and I have come to the conclusion that to vote for trump a person must be lacking in intelligence or integrity, not both just missing one or the other. This dude got fooled by the TV show but but had the integrity and intelligence kick in.

Yes, I know my Alabama non-republican vote means nothing for POTUS but it's the principle.
Bravo. Good for you.👏👏
Good for you, it's no small thing to escape a cult and considering you live in a bright red state it's even more commendable.
Thank u
Oh wow this is good
I think your vote does means something. Trump won with 62% in both 2016 and 2020. Even if he wins, if he wins with less than that, his ego will be hurt and that’s already something. So ✌️
Kyle Sweetser, you give me hope for the human race. I'm so glad that you were able to see Trump for what he is and the damage he's done to democracy.
Hats off to the person who can admit they were wrong.
I'm from Alabama and now I have one more reason to be more proud! Keep pressing forward Kyle!
It’s refreshing to see a 2 time Trump voter that can admit he was wrong
And it’s not just about Trump. He’s realized the exaggerations of politics. And how you can get caught up in it. Like a snow ball effect.
Thanks bro.
Admitting failure is not the Trump supporters strong suit. That level of introspection is the antithesis to what being a MAGA follower is.
The supporter did not fail, his candidate did!

Hi, 👋 fellow Texan democrat voter
@@utethornburg7715 Hell yeah…
This is one thing that I like a lot about liberals like David Pakman, Luke Beasley, Jordan Klepper etc:
they don't view republicans as "sworn enemies" by default, but rather as people who they try to bring to their senses.
Most liberals are by default, liberal. They don't hate Republicans by default, they're liberal minded meaning forgiving and accepting. What liberals hate is the hate... The bad people who now believe they he care blanc to be bad & hurt others just trying to live their lives in peace & liberty.
How's that working out now?
Why do you think Vivek, Tulsi, JFK Jr., Elon Musk,….. are siding with Trump, over Kamala?
Good for him for getting out of the orange cult! We need many more to come to their senses. Thank you David for supporting Democracy!

I’m English and I have to say I saw through Trump when I first saw him grifting on tv in the late 70s.Why is half of America blind to that narcissist.
It's much less than half of America and dwindling every day. The problem (in 2016 anyway) is getting people to vote for someone else. In states like Alabama the racial and cultural resentments among white people are so strong that even an obvious narcissist who promises to put the white man back in charge is appealing. Dare I say it: Brexit was driven by much the same thing.
It is not half, thank goodness. Still too many but not half.
¹@@RickyB-u4s
It is very simple large segment of the USA population lack education, as a result they are uninformed and gullible.
Trump gives people permission to let out negative impulses, or ideas within themselves; more ore less, 'the dark side'. I'll give you an example. When Trump first ran for the presidency there were some brave hecklers, while he was speaking. Trump told the audience, that someone should take care of the hecklers, and if someone crossed line and was arrested for assaulting the heckler, he would take care of the bail. So in other words, he would support a criminal reaction.
In another case, he told a audience of police officers that it was okay, if they hit a suspects head against the police car's frame while arresting a suspect of a violent crime. I can see that happening and might even do it myself, if I were a police officer. But publicly saying that it was okay, is another matter. I took note, that he called witnesses who testified against him, in the his first impeachment trial; "human scum"; when in fact the witnesses had strong credentials, such as having an Ivy League degree, distinguished military honors, etc. So that opens the door to call others various, negative terms.
This is the way to talk to people who have different views from your own. David, you are very respectful towards this man. Thank you
Great post
Every time I hear a person describe themselves as "fiscally conservative" as a basis of why they're Republican, I cringe hard. In my lifetime there haven't been any fiscally conservative Republicans in Washington DC. It's mind boggling. Maybe "fiscally conservative" just means they hate rich people paying taxes. Other than that, there's no connection whatsoever.
I checked GDP growth all the way back to 1980 because I didn't want to leave Reagan out because he used to be the rights God of conservatism. Anyway, from then til now the Dems have a full 5% more growth than under Republicans and that doesn't even include all of Bidens growth yet!!!! Believe it or not, Carter had as much gdp growth as Reagan even with the Arab oil embargo that should have spurred our pursuit of clean energy alternatives 50 years ago!
You are so right!
Wish ALL TRUMPERS could be like this guy!!! He sounds like a reasonable, logical and decent human being!!!

It's hard to acknowledge that you were wrong or believed the wrong thing, and it takes a lot of guts to admit it to a small group of friends, much less a national audience. I admire it, and I hope that others follow his lead.
💯
Yep. Many MAGA voters fall into the sunk cost fallacy in my opinion.
Yeah, I have respect for this guy. Not because he is voting Biden but he seems to have integrity and morals. Something that seems to be missing from MAGA. Dignity and common decency has been lost on that side of the fence. Following a narcissist is rarely a good idea in any aspect of life. I think the more someone is invested the harder it is to admit they are wrong generally speaking. And they are quite invested.
The more ego you have, the harder it is to admit that you were wrong. That’s why I think it’s harder for straight men to admit they’re wrong than women and LGBTI people, who tend to be a lot better at that. Straight men could learn a lot from gay men if they took the time to speak to them.
Doing so on this PUBLIC FORUM where other Republicans can see and hear it for themselves may just give others the courage to also *VOTE TRUMP OUT*
This Guy definitely deserves credit for admitting he was wrong
That's why he left Maga
The ability to admit you're wrong is an extremely mature and frankly necessary part of the process of being able to learn and do things in the world, and should be respected. It doesn't necessarily forgive everyone for everything they've done but people need to be given the space and support to change.
@@shang0h 100%! MAGA and Trump have given some of us PTSD and anxiety! When one of them comes out and admits wrong… it helps those of us who are negatively affected defo!

I also work in a steel fabrication company, so we had a lot of the same effects on us as this guy talks about, but I'm the only person at my workplace that doesn't support Trump even now. I've even asked them why and they said that they felt the business did better under rupublicans generally. It's reassuring to see this guy talking like this.

@@leothenomad5675 To me he seems like he is probably middle-management in a bigger company or the owner-operator of his own small business. In both cases he could be university educated or not. Either way he doesn't seem like working class in the factory floor hourly wage sense.
@@Saunajallu But why, all you have to go on is the way he is dressed and talks, are you saying that an hourly floor worker can't talk and dress well?
@@leothenomad5675 The way he dresses and talks are indeed indicators to that effect even if unreliable. More significantly, however, he talks about managing a business.

The infrastructure bill specifically benefits the construction industry. Biden is outdoing Reagan by not only talking the talk. Reagan's appeal was to racism; Biden's appeal is to actual food on the table.

In the beginning of Trumps reign as President, I sent an email to my nephew about a really funny speech Trump was making, thinking he would get a chuckle over it. Well did I ever get blasted back from my nephew! I didn’t even know he was pro Trump at the time! He started riding me up one side and down the other! I couldn’t figure out what gave him such an angry demeanour, so like you said, it was like Trump gave everybody permission to be a jerk! We still don’t talk to this day! Lol
What an intelligent young man.
Real men admit when they made a bad choice. The lies Trump and Republicans have told are unforgivable.

Yes, 40 is young!
Unforgivable means you don't forgive Sweetster either. He is part to blame for this country going in the crapper.. My biggest problem is not tRump- I have actually known how bad of a person he was in the casino business. My biggest problem is ALL these people who worked for him, and sucked up to him allowing his danger to continue. Like this Scaramucci and many others like him. They enabled him to continue and for power money and greed did not come out of the wood work to say how dangerous he is until the curtains on tRump are closing.
@@TerpeneProfile1 40 is young! This guy is a genuine critical thinker.
Someone who voted for Trump twice is not intelligent!!
There are 2 types of Trump supporters, one who doesn't care if they're wrong and one that actually admits they made a mistake.
And once they admit that, they are no longer a trump supporter. I believe his support is dwindling faster and faster, and we just all have to get out and do our part by voting blew up and down the ballot
Well said

@@denise8016He's on the right track though. You don't change your mind on lifelong positions overnight. I was raised by ultra conservative parents and voted for trump in 2016.

That’s so true! I can’t believe that loser Senator lives in Florida and represents Alabama?!!😑
Well they could re-elect Doug Jones at the first opportunity.
The only reason why Trump lives in Florida now is cause New York doesn't want him here. There are alot of Magats here in Florida. I'm only here cause of cold in NY. I miss NY.

As a Democrat, I have to say I admire this Man from Alabama becoming enlightened about the things brought about due to Trumps never-ending rhetoric and instigations.....misinformation that takes hold quickly, people being outrageous to people they don't even know, etc...I hope you get a lot of views for this.
KUDOS to Kyle Sweetser!! We may not agree on many political issues but I do appreciate his willingness to admit he made a mistake voting for Trump twice and not repeating that mistake for a third time. Hopefully he will open some eyes and change some minds before the election.
I've been pretty angry at trump supporters honestly even though I do realize that it is in large part a cult and what is needed is compassion. It's hard for me to feel compassion for people who are a threat to my future because they are going to vote for someone who is so dangerous to this country and myself. But I can see in this interview how that is needed and I really did feel a lot of compassion for this man. Thank you for this interview, I miss those days where we could just talk like people. 😢Thank you for voting for Biden. You are doing the right thing.

@LookatRealNumberes No it's called not taking things on faith but by evidence that comports to reality. Otherwise, you're a "rube".
@LookatRealNumberes Sigh. You didn't listen to a word the guy in the video said. Got it.
@LookatRealNumberes If you go back and look at your own spelling and sentence structure and rambling incoherent thoughts, do you see yourself the way we see you?
"And into your cult isn't politics in ra cult."
Huh? What?
"Isn't needing to check certain sources a cult"
No, quite the opposite.
@LookatRealNumberes I said it in my comment, that which comports to reality.
@LookatRealNumberes Is English your native language?
Are you old enough to be on youtube?
Are you old enough to vote?
You originally said "check certain sources", that's called doing your homework and not just taking what you are told at face value, as opposed to those who do the opposite and double check nothing and just believe what their cult leader or party tells them.
At 3:50 he starts talking about how the tariffs made prices go up and that inflation really started in 2018 under trump. Very enlightening
This guy deserves massive credit for the humility he's demonstrating by being interviewed like this. He's also giving us a masterclass in what exactly we're dealing with here: Trump supporters and conservatives more broadly don't actually think through policy positions except for when they are personally affected in adverse ways. The fact that his own ideas about regulation fall apart after even just 10 seconds of scrutiny didn't mean anything to him *until he* was affected by a completely different issue (the steel tariffs). Only then did he reexamine his own beliefs and give them the 10 seconds' worth of consideration required to realize were total bogus.
what we need to take from this is that conservatives are gullible, selfish, and content in their ignorance. Interviews like David's, conducted with compassion and grace (that someone like this frankly doesn't deserve, after the damage he's done to the country I love), are hugely instructive and valuable. Thanks David.
Remember, traitor Trump said he would run as a Republican for a reason...
No he doesn't. He's been part of the problem and a big reason why Trump is Still around and such a threat to democracy. WTF are you talking about?
You can tell he is intelligent and he critically looks at things. He could only come to this conclusion.
@@pingamalinga Not so much, he still looks to republican ideas on things like national debt for instance, when they've been the ones who historically increase it. He's just not very politically literate at all.

As someone who lives in a different country, it has been both fascinating and frightening to watch the impact that Trump has had on the people in the US. This man gives me hope that many previous Trump voters can and will reflect of the impact of their past decisions, and turn it around this time to enable the political situation to change. I applaud his journey and his courage to talk openly about it.
Why do you think Vivek, Tulsi, JFK Jr., Elon Musk,….. are siding with Trump, over Kamala?

Bravo to this man. That took courage.
Really interesting to hear from these people who flipped from Trump to Biden. Thanks to Kyle and David for this interview
Good grief. I’ll never understand anyone who ever thought trump was or is a viable candidate for anything.
It's difficult. Especially since I lost 4 loves to covid denying Trump. But Trump lost 4 voters, I guess? I'm still mad
That's what stopped the red wave. Covid gave Democrats the edge. That is why Democrats stopped trying to convince Republicans to vaccinate. I have friends that think no one really died during COVID and the dying is happening now because of the vaccine. The believe millions of people are dying now but the government is hiding all the deaths. They think the vaccine has killed over a billion people but the world is hiding it.
@@jefferyschicI'm sorry for your loss. Must be awful. I lost an aunt to covid. Was horrible. I hope your family is healing from the loss. Hope you have a nice day
That’s because you’re stupid enough to think the Democrats have good policies
Well because he is rich and famous and also some will never vote Dem anyway. I know i will never vote for a republican POTUS candidate again in my life no matter who the Dem candidate happens to be.
THank you Kyle for speaking out so eloquently how your vote was changed.
Appreciate it was multifaceted and influenced on many factors.
It gives me hope for our country. Critical thinking will keep our country safe and sane.
It would take an exorcism at this point to remove all MAGA from Office
Kyle, Thank you so much for your clarity and commitment to our country
Wow, intelligent conversation , could we get this guy to run for Congress in Alabama?
A lot of people think tariffs charge foreign companies and governments. They charge us companies. Those tariffs hurt a lot of middle american farmers .
It takes a big man to admit when he's wrong. I, for one, welcome Mr. Sweetser and thank him for being the bigger man.
Deeply appreciate this man, his honesty and his integrity. Well done sir.
This guy needs to be on tour, telling his story. He's got the charisma, very likeable and level-headed. The south isn't all stereotype and this is one of the good ones.
Those of us who have been against Trump from the beginning need to give some space to those who voted for Trump and are now against him. It’s very hard for them to admit they were wrong (human nature) and if we don’t allow them back into the fold without getting in their faces and mocking them they will never come back to reality. People make mistakes and we need to accept them back without attacking them.
You are right. I once was dumb enough to vote Republican, that is, for Reagan, until I realized what the Rep Party stood for, and what kind of a man Reagan was - no integrity, lying, no charitable bone in his body, no conscience, no compassion, i.e. words he became more of a Republican than a Republican.
I agree with you.
It's also a tough battle to back away and be polite as most of us used to be to each other.
Sad to say.
I look in the mirror and think, gosh, let's get back to talking and not arguing to the point of viciousness.
A friend told me that anybody that makes a "sacrifice" of any kind that isolates themselves from family and friends etc. need to be given some space because they are then embarrassed.....and that's ok. So we got to take them in, forgive them if we can, and let them shake off years of serious commitments. Like receiving someone back from a cult. Let them know it's safe to come back home and that we love them.
Open our arms.
They need to know they are safe to come back to their friends and family and so on....even though they may have said and done some horrible things.
Peace.
Thanks.
Your sentiment is extremely valuable right now. Spread that sentiment.
As we speak, I have to come to peace too...leave what anger is left and just be there for others.
Tough times ahead but with folks like you reminding us that we can repair, reform, and come together united and peaceful is important. Around the world even.
Hope.
Your sentiment has hit me to the core. This is the Americas I remember.
The goal is peace.
@@randymulder9105 exactly!! We have to share a country, they aren’t going away and they aren’t all bad people. Some of them are my friends and family members.

Now I’m not naive and do realize that some of his supporters are racist, misogynistic etc and that’s harder to forgive but none of us should be on such a pedestal that we can’t forgive the rest no matter how blind they seemed to us.

I have pondered this for some time and I have come to the conclusion that to vote for trump a person must be lacking in intelligence or integrity, not both just missing one or the other. This dude got fooled by the TV show but but had the integrity and intelligence kick in.
