He has co-founded the Republican Alliance for Integrity and Reform, an anti-Trump group which aims to repair the Republican Party and repair the U.S. election after the 2020 election. He also wrote an opinion piece for the Washington Post on August 24, saying that other former members of the Trump administration were considering speaking out. Taylor was the first former senior Trump administration staffer to endorse Biden.
