Jim Smith: 'I'm a Biden Republican' [View all]

Another major figure in Florida Republican politics — former Attorney General and former Secretary of State Jim Smith — is coming out with his support for Joe Biden and opposition to President Donald Trump.

“I’m a Republican today, I’ll be a Republican tomorrow, but in 2020 I’m a Biden Republican,” Smith declares in a new independent video produced by Democratic consultant Kevin Cate and released Friday afternoon. “I’m very proud to be Republican, but there are times when you have to put your country ahead of politics, and that is why I have voted for Joe Biden to be the President.”

The video was released on Twitter.

“He brings high-energy to the office. He brings decency to the office. And he has a real plan to end the coronavirus,” Smith added.
