Title: Describe a Trump voter that still holds a positive opinion of Obama
Post by: emcee0 on January 22, 2017, 08:14:52 PM
How would you explain that? Obviously we are talking about a two-time Obama voter... What percentage of those do you think exist?

Van Jones did a story about a family in rural Ohio that had voted for Obama twice, but voted for Trump this time.  When Van Jones asked them about Obama they said he is a good person.

Probably quite a few. I was just thinking the other day that the one thing Obama and Trump strike me as having in common is both have a tendency to have people read into them what they want to see which is sometimes at odds with the reality of who they are.
