Stories from a Swing State
Interviews with Trump supporters in Ohio before the Primary vote in March 2016. I blogged the full stories on Medium, read the whole collection here: Voices of America.
I don’t like how they compare Trump to Hitler. Just because he doesn’t want illegal people coming in doesn’t make him racist. That’s not a color, it’s illegal, there’s a difference. There’s plenty of white people that are sick of white people stuff too. Going into schools shooting…that’s a lot of white people.

I think it’s stupid to put a wall between here and Mexico. I don’t get the whole reason why you would have to put a wall between somewhere just because people have different opinions. I don’t agree with it.
I like Trump because he speaks his mind. That’s about it.

The only reason I’m thinking of Trump is because he’s the closest thing to get us there — away from corruption. I’m a libertarian. I want truth and honesty. The American way, whatever it is. I’m agnostic about the person, I don’t care who the person is. I just want the person who will get us to that point.

Whenever something’s really popular, and it seems like “This is it!”, then you’d better ask the question, “Is this it?” People are all going crazy after him, waving their hands, crying out “Trump, Trump!” like they’re all heading down the river in their inner tubes. It’s the thing to do. If everyone is into it, then it raises a red flag and needs to be examined.

The biggest thing that makes me trust Trump is that he just doesn’t need to do this. He’s not looking to gain a life in politics. He’s not looking to gain money, respect, notoriety, anything else. He’s already got it.

Everything that we’re disgusted about, Trump’s saying he’s gonna fix and I don’t think he’s gonna back down.
He kinda scares me. But being a business man, I think that’s what we need for the country to get things on track.
