A few years back, The New York Times initiated a search to find Trump voters who no longer supported the former president. They asked such folks to self-identify and give their reasons for doing a one-eighty on The Donald.

Well isn’t that just typical of the fake news? All The Times cares to do is identify Trump traitors; they don’t care to look for those voters who didn’t vote for Trump in 2016 or 2020 but now support him. Voters like:

David Butler of Skokie, Illinois

“Honestly, I wasn’t that crazy about Donald Trump in the beginning. Although I liked his idea of the Mexican border wall, for the most part I didn’t see his views really jiving with mine. That is, until he came out with some tacit support for us white supremacists. He could have taken the easy road and condemned us and the neo-Nazis outright but he didn’t. As I see it, he sent a subtle message to me and my friends to hang in there and fight the good fight. Heck, I’m not asking him to secretly send us all a free white sheet but I do appreciate his efforts and you can now count me as a big Donald Trump fan.”

Arthur J. Harris III of New York City
