Mickey Edwards, a longtime Republican, has joined the list of those endorsing Kamala Harris for president. Edwards, who represented Oklahoma's 5th congressional district between 1977 and 1993 and was a founding trustee of the Heritage Foundation, urged Americans to support the Democrat in an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The former lawmaker put his focus on foreign policy, saying that a Trump presidency would imperil "America's reliability as a partner in the defense of liberal democracy." "Our fellow democracies want to know, 'Are you with us?' Our authoritarian enemies want to know if, as Trump signaled, we're fine with them doing whatever they want," Edwards says in a passage of his op-ed.
