@classics.journey: Debra Messing has made a major change in her political stance by endorsing Republican Bruce Blakeman for New York governor. The *Will & Grace* star, 58, has long been known for supporting Democrats and criticizing DJ.Trump. But this time, she says her priorities have changed. Messing recently met with Blakeman, who is running against Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul in the November 2026 election. She explained her decision in a lengthy Instagram statement, saying she is increasingly worried about the cost of living and public safety in New York. Messing said the viol*nce she sees on streets and subways frightens her. She also described concerns about safety at houses of worship after an incident affected her own community. But she insisted her core beliefs have not disappeared. She said she still supports voting rights, reproductive choice, protections for the G*y community and safer schools, but believes New York now needs different solutions. Messing acknowledged that Blakeman is backed by DJ.Trump, but said that was not what her vote would be based on. Her endorsement represents a striking change for an actress who previously supported Hillary Clinton, JB and Kamala Harris. The decision has already triggered strong reactions online, with some people questioning her shift while others praised her for choosing what she believes is best for New York. The 2026 race is now shaping up as a contest between Hochul and Blakeman, with voters set to decide the governor later this year. Sometimes, changing your vote means accepting that people who once shared your beliefs may no longer agree with your priorities.
