Breitbart reports:
Former Rep. Peter Deutsch (D-FL) announced on Monday that he is “100 percent comfortable” endorsing former President Donald Trump, with a desire for “world peace” as the “driving force” for his support.
Deutsch revealed his endorsement on a press call with the Trump Campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) regarding the first anniversary of Hamas’s terrorist attack on Israel.
“I feel very comfortable today publicly announcing that I’m endorsing Donald Trump to be reelected as president. I’m planning on voting for him on November 5, and I take this decision very, very seriously. I also feel 100% comfortable with the decision,” he said.
While Deutsch, who represented Florida’s 20th Congressional District from 1993-2005, noted that many factors go into choosing a presidential candidate to support and that he is more comfortable with Trump’s positions on immigration and school choice, he said peace is the premier motivator when deciding his vote.
“By far, the driving force for me to make this decision is what I believe is the most important factor in being president, the most important job of being president, which is really world peace,” Deutsch said.
He said Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden’s Iran policies are making the “world a dramatically less safe place.”
“And it’s not just about what is happening in the Middle East,” adding that Iran’s “enemy remains the United States” as well.
