Alyssa Farah Griffin explains why she felt disappointed in Trump on Election Day: 'He deserved to lose'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Alyssa Farah Griffin has made a political switch after the co-host of ‘The View’ revealed that she voted for Kamala Harris.
The former Trump staffer, during the show, explained her decision to change sides.“Four years ago today, I was in the White House with Donald Trump on election night,” Griffin said.
“I believed he deserved to lose that night, at that point. I thought he hadn’t fought to win the election, but I thought the next four years would be the Republican party rebuilding and becoming something I could believe in and turning the page on Donald Trump, and it didn’t do that. So, this weekend, on Saturday, for the first time in my life, I voted for a Democrat,” she admitted.
