People voted for him:
- They saw him as a business friendly President who could boost the economy
- He was an outsider
- PC culture and Liberal bias annoyed many a person
- He was pro military
- He was charismatic
- He was not HRC
Those were mostly the answers I got when speaking to friends, neighbors, etc. in my small town in MA.
In the end, results is what matters. Unemployment is low, M&A activity is up, military spend is up. In terms of delivery? It is purely subjective. Many people like that sort of bluntness, others are turned off by it. There is no right or wrong answer to delivery. I am anti PC so I like the delivery style but I can also see how it can put some people off.
Ben Shapiro --- 2024
Adding on to what Bob said, I understand how people could see him that way but his shady business tactics and many failed projects cast some doubt.I don't see how 2, 3, and 4 are good/valid reasons to vote for someone. I don't think people voted for him for his personality either.
The main reason he won is because dems ran a crappy candidate. But to say that Hillary is worse than Trump is insane to me. John Oliver had an episode on this. He said that scandals are like raisins on a cookie. Hillary is a cookie with slightly more raisins than usual. Trump is a raisin monsoon.
Idiot
I just told you that these were the reasons as told to me. "I don't think people voted for him for his personality either." Actually they did because they told me they did and the sample size of people that I spoke with was statistically significant. The Dems did not run a crappy candidate they shoved that candidate down people's throats.
Trump ran on:
- Stronger immigration policy --- in place
- Stronger military --- moving that way
- Stronger economy --- stats speak for themselves
- Reformed Healthcare --- TBD
- The WALL --- TBD
He was never an eloquent hugger. He was who he said he was. You, tangplay the moron are still upset that he got elected. Just admit it. President DJT is not any different from Candidate DJT. If you would just admit that you are upset over the election we can continue to discuss the issues. Otherwise continue lying about your faith and your profession.
You are the only "journalist" that I have met, who did not know what an ad hominem is.
the sample size of people you spoke to was statistically significant? Just out of curiosity, how many people did you speak to?
And, yes, I do agree that trump the President is the same as Trump the candidate...a lying, sexist, conman who couldn't give a **** about anyone but himself and his rich buddies. He never tried to hide what he was during the campaign.
