Alberto Gonzales, a Republican who served as attorney general under George W. Bush, said he’s supporting Kamala Harris.
Former Attorney General on Thursday endorsed Vice President for president, writing in an op-ed of the “serious threat” poses to the rule of law.
“As the United States approaches a critical election, I can’t sit quietly as Donald Trump — perhaps the most serious threat to the rule of law in a generation — eyes a return to the White House”, Gonzales wrote in an op-ed in Politico Magazine. “For that reason, though I’m a Republican, I’ve decided to support Kamala Harris for president.”
Gonzales, who served as attorney general under George W. Bush’s administration and as White House counsel, drew on his experience to argue that Harris is the “best suited, able and committed to unite us in a manner consistent with the rule of law”, citing her appearances at the Democratic National Convention last month and on the debate stage this week.
