Arizona man who voted Trump in 2016 switching vote to Biden after wife died of COVID-19
A retired Air Force veteran in Arizona who voted for President Trump in the 2016 election announced on Monday that he will be casting his vote for Democratic nominee Joe Biden in November after the mans wife died of complications from COVID-19.
Dave Dahlstrom, a self-proclaimed lifelong conservative, told ABCs Phoenix affiliate station, KNXV, that Trump and other top officials downplaying the threat of the virus after it first hit the United States earlier this year caused deaths and hardships that could have been prevented.
"Our leadership really failed the American people, and they failed my family, and they failed our friends, he said. Im really bothered by all of that."
Earlier this month, Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward released audio recordings with Trump for his book "Rage." The recordings revealed that Trump knew early on in February that the virus was going to be "deadly."
