'Donald Trump is an embarrassment': 'Reagan Republican' Mike Fasano backs Joe Biden

Republican Pasco County Tax Collector Mike Fasano has never voted for a Democrat for President.

That changes this year.

Fasano, a moderate who considers himself a “Reagan Republican,” announced via a new ad Thursday that he plans to cast his ballot this year for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

The ad begins with Fasano introducing his political career, beginning as president of the Pasco County Young Republicans and then later as an elected member of the Florida House of Representatives and Florida Senate, where he held leadership roles in both.

He also described his appointment to his current Tax Collector role by Republican Gov. Rick Scott, a job for which he was subsequently reelected.

“Why am I telling you this? Because I want you to know I’m as Republican as it gets, a conservative Republican,” Fasano says in the ad.

“But Donald Trump is an embarrassment.”
