Bulwark founder Sarah Longwell hosts frequent surveys with Trump supporters. And her latest foray reveals Trump’s fans have had it with the president’s failure to deliver on promises, however, and they may sit home in a huff as Republicans tumble in November.
“My brain is literally spinning with so much,” reports one Trump voting woman. “I think that he sold us a bag of — I'm not going to curse, but I do not like the way things are going, even with ICE. And border control for me was a very big thing. That was one of my biggest concerns with this election was cleaning up the country and getting these dangerous illegals out. But I don't like how innocent people, professionals have been incarcerated or taken.”
another Trump voting woman. “I grocery shop every week so like I know when thing when prices are going down and up — and I'm, like, he's lying. Nothing is okay. … I've never paid $9 for ground beef before, ever, not even the good kind. That is really, really crazy and getting very scary.”
“I really thought it was going to be about us here at home,” the woman added. “He made me feel like he empathized with the plight of what was going on with Americans and middle class and like below...
[Sorry lady. Didn't you get the memo? Empathy is out in MAGA world.]
... but it just kind of feels like [he’s] been involved in other countries and big corporations and all that since the beginning and not really focusing on us here at home and like real everyday issues.”
“Inflation's high … but he was supposed to help bring it down,” complained one Trump-voting man in the survey. “I think it’s worse now than it was when Biden was president, with the gas going up real high and stuff. plus they talked about maybe giving a stimulus payment to help with inflation and I don't think that's ever even going to happen.”
“It's these big corporations and things are benefiting and we're suffering because of it,” [another] voter raged, while assuring that she’s “all for capitalism..."
[The DOW's over 50,000! Capitalism yay! Surely you're not suggesting we tax successful capitalists in order to give socialist handouts to ordinary people like you?]
...I don't want communism and socialism. I don't want what the left wants. I don't want what the Democrats want.”
[Then, I'm not sure what your problem is. Capitalism is working as intended.]
