Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, a Republican, has endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz. In a rare political move, Schwarzenegger emphasized that he is "an American before I am a Republican." Criticizing former President Donald Trump, he stated, "A candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke" is unacceptable. He expressed concern that he doesn't recognize the country and referenced America as "the shining city on a hill." Schwarzenegger's endorsement is significant given his typical reluctance to engage in political endorsements.
