A Republican woman in Orange County took the mic at a city hall rally to ask her fellow party members questions about their unwavering support for President Donald Trump.ย The state of the nation has left many lamenting. A viral TikTok captures the womanโs speech at a rally on Sunday, May 4. She took the center stage and introduced herself, saying, โI am โ donโt boo me โ a registered Republican.โย
The woman told the story of becoming a Republican over 50 years ago because she believed in โthe rule of law, fiscal responsibility, and the love of whistleblowers.โ She recalled how her parents had voted for the 37th U.S. President, Richard Nixon, but withdrew their support when they discovered he was involved in criminal activity.
The woman then called out her fellow Republicans for โturning a blind eyeโ to Trumpโs many crimes, including โfake charity, fake university, and conviction of sexual abuse,โ to name a few. Clearly disappointed, she said that the Republican Party does not support the rule of law anymore. โFiscal responsibility was lost when Trump was in office the first time, and our national debt skyrocketed even before Covid,โย she explained.
In her speech, the speaker further expressed shock at how her fellow Republicans still voted for Trump despite his poor performance in his first administration. She mentioned that the president had already gone bankrupt six times. โWith his flagrant misuse of tariffs, are we going to become his seventh bankruptcy?โ This was met with loud cheers and support from the audience.
The Republican woman then threw a question at her colleagues: โAnd now I ask my religious Republican friends. What the bajeebies are you thinking?โ She further pointed out that Trump does not respect the Ten Commandments. โHe may be peddling the Bible, but he doesnโt know the Bible.โ She also added that money was his true god.
While concluding her speech, the Orange County woman vowed never to vote for a Republican again. She also promised to โresist being a part of a cult,โ saying that she will โnever be a Trumpian.โ
In reaction to the womanโs long rant, one user commented, โSheโs the first Republican Iโve seen that makes me feel a sense of safe. Thank you.โ
One individual remarked, โThis is the difference between being a patriot and a cult follower,โ and another replied, โThereโs nothing wrong with being a Republican, but everything wrong with what this current Republican cabinet is doing.โ
One user called it a โbreath of fresh airโ to see Republicans finally speaking up, and another remarked that her speech helped โshift their perspective.โ
After the woman finished speaking, the audience cheered loudly for her, and she appreciated them for letting her vent.
