Former President Barack Obama’s half-brother, Malik Obama, shared he is endorsing a Republican candidate in Pennsylvania’s governor race.
Political commentator Jack Posobiec tweeted, “Hey I think you would like . Check him out my dude.”
Malik Obama replied, “If he’s with President Trump then I’m with Pennsylvania Senator PA District 33.”
In 2016, Malik Obama announced he would vote for former President Donald Trump.
“He appeals to me and also I think that he is down to earth and he speaks from the heart and he is not trying to be politically correct. He’s just straight-forward,” he told Reuters at the time.
Commenting on Trump’s position on Muslims, Malik Obama explained, “I’m a Muslim, of course, but you can’t have people going around just shooting people and killing people just in the name of Islam.”
The outlet noted he has previously criticized his half-brother.
“To each his own. I speak my mind and I’m not going to be put in a box just because my brother is the President of the United States,” Malik Obama said.
Additionally, Malik Obama spoke with The New York Post about why his “deep disappointment” in his brother’s administration led him to switch to “the party of Lincoln.”
