Dear Trump Supporters , a Question or Three

In a few days it will be one year since Donald J Trump won the Presidency of the United States , a lot has happened in that year not much of it good in my opinion which led me to wonder....

1 Who here voted for Donald Trump but in the intervening year has had a change of heart ?
2 If you had been given a stronger alternative to vote for would you have voted for them ?
3 Are you embarrassed by the Presidents twitter tantrums ?

Genuine questions no agenda.

No; I don’t know; not really.

1. yes and no change of heart
2. yes
3. not in the least bit embarrassed; his use of twitter allows him to bypass the msm so he sets the rules for when and what he wishes to say to his fellow citizens

Voted for him and happy so far. Despite what the media reports, things aren't horrible.

There were better candidates, but they didn't make it in the primaries.

Not fond of his Twitter, but not embarrassed by it.

Phrasing everything in a negative light is certainly not "no agenda".

No agenda would have been something like this:

1 Who here voted for Trump and in the year that has passed has either had a change of heart or felt their support for him grow?

2 If there had been other, less polarising alternatives to the two candidates presented would you have voted differently?

3 Does the President's use of social media embarrass you or do you find it refreshingly open?

No agenda...

1:I voted him there as an attack on "The Man" so, no.
The hippies got it wrong and we are attacking a threat to humanity that can't be done with another lawyer or a man who is poor,hard to bribe a rich guy,he also profiles as seen.
No obvious or extremely suspicious skeletons ,a big mouth but OH WELL...

2:As politics are dangerously corrupt as I have always noted,the wild card used to break them up would need to be more traditionally based so again no.


3:Of course.

I disagree with your opinion that "not much good" I am absolutely in love MORE with the President than I ever thought I'd be after I cast my Vote For him.

1. Have not had a change of heart. Actually I am more staunch in my support for President Trump.
2. There is always "Someone better"...? Weird question.
3. Not at all, because I understand them.

To Elaborate. Our Economy is booming, I've never seen so many "Help wanted" signs, which means businesses are hiring. All the Media nonsense only serves to cement my belief that he was needed. To see the establishment and the media try to derail him and every single turn, while he just keeps on going is breathtaking to behold.

They are constantly trying to portray him as an idiot, racist, sexist, hitler, etc. every single chance they get and none of it is working. His "Twitter tantrums" are sorely needed because if not for his twitter, all the American people would hear would be the media nonsense. He is talking directly to the people, and we appreciate it.

I just want to add, He's going to win in 2020, and he's going to win by much larger then he did in 2016. How can I be so sure? Because people who supported Trump the first time, after the media and establishment were constantly trying to destroy him, are not going away. The only people who will change their minds will be the moderate opposition, who Maybe weren't' sure about him, who maybe thought he "might" start world war 3, or maybe he really was racist and sexist. All those people, who bought into the media narrative are going to see after 4 years what he's done, and the bar has been set SO LOW for him, that if we are even still a country in 2020 people will realize they were wrong. When they see the economy doing amazing things, they will come along to our side and see just how great of a President he really is.

I think the questions are worded fairly.

He is the president and why not critically review him and to be fair he is not a pussy footing mincer of words is he?

I think he would be ok with the questios just the way there are personally.

1 Who here voted for Donald Trump but in the intervening year has had a change of heart ? Not at all.
2 If you had been given a stronger alternative to vote for would you have voted for them ? Nope.
3 Are you embarrassed by the Presidents twitter tantrums ? Not really. He is just speaking his mind and why not? To me it is better than political speak 24/7

Fair enough.

2. There is always "Someone better"...? Weird question.

Not really , there were two choices in the ballot Clinton or Trump , I just wondered if instead of Clinton it had been another less hated candidate would that have been a more palatable choice.

1. I voted for Trump, but no change of heart as of yet.

2. Possibly, but hard to know. Depends on their stance on policies.

3. Not embarrassed, but definitely not a fan of him getting in pissing matches with others. I do feel he needs to use Twitter to bypass the bias media though.

It would depend on whom you are speaking about. Quite Frankly ANY republican Candidate would be just as "hated. "Bush "was hated." I frankly don't think Trump is "hated." The man won an Electoral Landslide while the media tried to tell us all he had no chance. They continue to try and tell us he is hated, and the American People keep disagreeing.

1. Yes I voted for Trump. No change of heart, I actually feel 1000% better now about it than I did when I was on the fence about it in the voting booth.

2. Yes I would have voted for Bernie Sanders as I did in the primaries.

3. Not embarrassed by the Don's tweets. Matter of fact I love them so much that I have him on notification on my phone. It's comedic gold at times and I enjoy that he speaks his mind. Sometimes it's not very PC but neither am I.

You would think they are worded fairly if your bias lined up with the OP.

Inability to recognize this and going even further to label it as "fair" (and frequently "unbiased") is the very thing that causes so many issues. As well as being a foothold for extensive manipulation.

Really not a big deal, at its core, but when heavy, subconscious bias is actively seen as fair... the disconnect can be problematic.

Anywho: No change, possibly, and I find twitter a bit embarrassing on its own.

Tough to legitimately call myself a "supporter" though. When all criticism comes from the opposition, and any support comes from the team, it is immensely difficult to get an accurate read on anything. Everyone involved tends to perpetuate their ideological agenda whether or not they are aware of it.

Good setup for avoiding effective criticism or appropriate support, when the former tends to be disingenuous cries of wolf and the latter blind belief. Applicable for both sides, naturally.

1. Yes, and no change of heart

2. Possibly, I really liked Ben Carson

3. Trump can say some things that make me SMH. But I like it because I realize he don't care about being PC. I think we needed that for a change.

Not this guy...nor did I vote for Hillary (that must be specified)

2 If you had been given a stronger alternative to vote for would you have voted for them ?

I did..."stronger" is a relative term. I would have voted for Rand Paul, though, if he had been the nominee.

3 Are you embarrassed by the Presidents twitter tantrums ?

I'm embarrassed for him and I feel bad for his press secretary, but I don't feel any embarrassment by them, because I can appreciate a direct approach to speaking, even if he's wrong from time to time.
