Young Republican Turns on Trump After Helping Elect Him

A young Republican who voted for President Donald Trump to his second term in office is experiencing some voter’s remorse.

Thomas Maddox, a senior finance student at the University of Cincinnati, penned an opinion column in the Cincinnati Enquirer on Thursday that expressed his disappointment in the second Trump administration after having voted for it in 2024.

“As a young Republican who voted for Trump − even after being disappointed by his behavior in 2021 − I spent years defending him," Maddox, 22, said. “I defended him in conversations, debates, and writing because I believed the larger project he represented was bigger than the controversies surrounding him.”
