Sam Nunberg, a former political adviser for Donald Trump, has decided to support Ted Cruz for president, Politico reported.

“Cruz is a Reagan Conservative. Donald Trump does not have a coherent political ideology — if anything, I would describe him as a Chris Christie Republican,” Nunberg said in a statement first published by ” target=”_blank”>Business Insider revealed past racially-charged Facebook posts. Nunberg allegedly wrote racially-charged and disparaging political posts dating back to 2007, including one calling Rev. Al Sharpton’s daughter a “N—!” and President Barack Obama a “Socialist Marxist Islamo Fascist Nazi Appeaser.”

Nunberg denied he wrote the posts. “Anything that was posted under my name does not mean I posted it,” he told CNN at the time. “I would also point out that all of these things were done before Mr. Trump’s campaign, if I even did them — which I deny.”

Nunberg said on Monday that Trump’s failure to immediately disavow David Duke’s endorsement and lack of understanding on foreign policy issues were the “last straws” that convinced him not to support his former boss for president.
