Profile of a Trump Supporter

Posted on by beautybeyondbones

I was going to do a cheeky post on Taylor Swift or something, but…I just couldn’t. As much as I realllly didn’t want to write about the election, ignoring the state of our nation right now just didn’t sit well with me.

Scrolling through social media and watching the news today, there was definitely a tone. An overwhelming consensus of, almost arrogant disbelief in our country that manifested in highly divisive and passive aggressive comments.

A few highlights: written by my friends on Facebook or sent directly to me:

Trump supporters are “dumb, uneducated, delusional idiots pushing for change, regardless of what disaster may entail. This country is breeding ignorance.”

“If you voted for Trump, explain to me why your female, black, latino/a, LGBTQ+, and Muslim friends don’t matter to you.”

“Trump Supporters: racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic, misogynist clowns with an affinity for orange spray tans.”

“Wow. There are racist and ignorant idiots all over this country.”

Reading these comments, it hurt. Personally. Why?

Because they were about me.

Yes, I voted for Donald Trump.

Now before you “X” out of this post, I invite you to just read to the end.

If you’ve read any of my posts before, I think you will know that I am none of those things. I am not some filled-with-hate monster that my friends are tweeting about.

I am a young Christian woman, college educated, who is friends with nearly all immigrants and ethnically diverse millennials in NYC. I am an artist with tons of LGBT friends.  I have been sexually assaulted. And I have been working – yes, professional acting brings in a pay check – since the age of 7.

And my heart is full of tremendous love.

I’m not here to judge anyone. And I’m not going to sit here and tell you to think like I do. I wanted to just share why I voted for this “unconscionable” candidate.

200-2.gif

First of all, this was a difficult election for me. 

Neither candidate was a beacon of morality. I had to look past the individual and vote on what they stood for. Or rather, what they stood against.

Donald Trump, (much like Bernie Sanders, honestly) was the candidate that was taking a stand against the corruption of far left, liberal, big government, and its mainstream media accomplice, trying to pull the wool over our eyes.

Honestly, I don’t blame my friends for tweeting these ill-informed things out. The mainstream media has been crafting the Trump narrative, painting him in as corrupt light as possible (some of which, he definitely earned), and failing to pay any lip service to Hillary and her criminal activity.

Wanting to have secure borders and supporting legal immigration does not make me a racist or xenophobe.

Wanting to become energy independent does not make me irrational and idiotic.

I am allowed to vote against government-funded abortion facilities and healthcare with mandated aborticants.

I am allowed to vote for fiscal responsibility. Getting America back to work. Reducing our national debt.

But mainly, I am allowed to vote in protest to the onslaught by the liberal far left and the agenda they push in the mainstream media, in newspapers, at public universities, in celebrity/pop culture. That does not make me a bigot.

My vote was a big “middle finger” to the extreme left.

It was me taking back that day when I was a freshman in college and I had to do an oral report to my class of 200+, what a “rim job” was. For a grade. At a public, liberal university.

It was me taking back that time a liberal professor spent a semester trying to talk my brother out of his religious beliefs.

It was me standing up for the 8 month baby in the womb, days before delivery, who, under Hillary would have been legally allowed to be killed.

img_0435-1

It was me standing up for our military and the men and women who have risked their lives to protect mine.

It was me voting to create job opportunities for all Americans.

It was me declaring that there is corruption in Washington, and I won’t have it any more.

It was me taking back America.

One of the biggest things I heard echoed across social media today was, “What am I going to tell my children?”

You’ve probably seen it too.

How will I tell my children that this country approves and celebrates bullies, rapists, homophobic, racist, sexist, and hateful people? And elected one to run our nation?

Here’s what I’ll say.

I voted for you. I voted to protect the constitutional rights that our country was founded on. So that when you grow up, you have those unalienable rights that, at the time, were under attack by a corrupt government and slanderously biased media. I voted for the unborn. For the safety of our country. For religious freedom.

I voted for you. For your future. For your liberties, that have been slowly eroding by an extreme liberal agenda that neither respects God or the common man.

And I am proud of that vote.

Am I proud that Trump was the one I cast my ballot for? Not especially. He has said and done some incredibly horrendous things, but I had to look past that for the greater good.

And please, let he without sin cast the first stone.

Would I have loved to see a woman break that glass ceiling and become President? Absolutely.

But I refuse to elect a woman that reeks of corruption, simply because of her anatomy.

That would be the epitome of nasty.

So that’s the last you’ll hear about the election or politics from me on here.

Back to “programming as usual” on Monday.

  1. This past election was the first one where I wasn’t excited about voting. I asked my dad who was born in the Kennedy years and came of age during the Nixon era and he said he never saw an election cycle this toxic. I was leaning heavily towards the 3rd party candidates, but then I’d see someone on the media say “don’t do that, you’re vote won’t count.”
    So in frustration, and an act of semi-defiance, I decided to take a page from Harvey Dent in Batman and flipped a coin to decided who I’d vote for. I started with each third party candidate, and then the winner of that round got to go up against the “winner” of the top two. Then whoever one the coin toss that’s who I voted for. It may or may not have been the same candidate as you. Then I just put my trust in He whose name is inscribed on the coin and cast my vote.

    “Donald Trump, (much like Bernie Sanders, honestly) was the candidate that was taking a stand against the corruption of far left, liberal, big government, and its mainstream media accomplice, trying to pull the wool over our eyes.”
    I have to agree with this. Both Trump, and Sanders actually bothered to try and court working class voters. One only needs look at how Trump went to the hurting rust-belt, while Hillary whined and dined with the elite like Beyonce and Jay-Z at swanky events to see that.

  15. Trump was and still is, the only possible solution and anyway could bring the world in a different direction.
    It’s not simple for him, he’s not stupid at all and he’s conscious that if he says too many NO to the deep establishment blues (copied from Sixto Diaz Rodriguez), he will be moved away, by law or by force… or even worst his people will be punished.
    Obviously he will become unpopular and might even get very wrong ways, nationally and internationally, but I’m asking to anyone, do you really want Mr. Nuke the Wallworld as a president?
    He is trying to get peace in NK, despite the Generals doing their worst to make Kim Yong Un really unhappy, and he’s already succeeded in stop (temporarily at least) a genocide in Syria stoping his own arms. Even if he had to use dangerous stratagems.
    We should continue to support him (by will, that means spiritually), and might be he will find strength in continues to destabilizing the NWO global plan of human enslavement.
    If we put down our guard, he is finished!

    I was an early Trump supporter; about January, 2016. I supported him on the wall, draining the swamp, getting us out of all these CRAZY wars, standing up to the DC establishment, and putting average Americans back to work. Unfortunately, he seems to be in the process of being captured by the very DC establishment that he so effectively campaigned against. What can we do but pray for our nation?

    1. Donald Trump hasn’t devolved into anything that hasn’t always been. He’s a self-absorbed, irrational narcissist.. He appealed to many folks who believed in his false assertions and irrelevant promises. Why expect someone who flaunts his own wealth, and insists on being front-and-center in every way, be taken as someone who is out for The Everyman?

      As someone who is well versed in the issues: Budget and Debt; Finial Markets and Monetary Policy; National Security Issues; Health insurance; etc., I have never seen Trump appear to be doing anything than promising lie, providing no game plan, and surrounding himself with a Rogue’s Gallery of Incompetent Loyalists.

      Early in his campaign when Michael Flynn was His General, and placed him as National Security Advisor, I understand that the Pentagon cringed, as I did, and the NATO General Staff. Then, he made Steve Bannon a permanent member of the Security Council, but not the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. Flynn and Bannon brought in other members the Security Council staff, again without credentials.

      Whenever I see Trump on TV, the first thought that comes to mind is a horse’s derriere–actually, a J/A!

      No, Trump hasn’t changed or been kidnapped. It’s you that have changed, and you’re beginning to see Trump as h truly is, and he’s not what you had wished for!

        Perhaps J. C. wasn’t talking only about taxes; but, about the separation of spiritual and temporal things.

  18. As a minority, I can tell you that I wasn’t sold on Hillary, but once Trump began invoking the 40s-60s era with that ‘Make America Great Again,’ we knew exactly what he meant. His track record with us has never been good from the time he took out that full page ad in the Times calling the Central Park 5 savage animals worthy of quick execution. I don’t think he’s overtly racist as he is an opportunistic one, and will be so if the situation requires it. How can you address a black audience at an Iowa rally? Don’t want to rant or digress, but I have to say I was disappointed that many friends of mine, some of whom I’ve worshipped beside in times past, voted for this man. I don’t fault them; they simply don’t know the issues that are important to us, and like you, believed their vote would benefit all Americans. But we are not, by and large, seen as a valuable part of America beyond holding a ball or microphone. Holding positions of actual authority and power reveal a different protocol at work. And no, the black / Latino communities have not prospered under Democrats, and I’m definitely not for ‘Crime is low because nothing’s illegal, and everyone’s identity confusion is ok should be agreed with,’ which is the slogan of liberals, but most of us feel we go backward with the GOP. His MAGA slogan didn’t help us shirk that belief, nor the assaults that took place at his rallies. It was a chance for him to show he was made of better stuff, and he did not. That being said, we can continue to pray for him.

    2. BYB, you don’t have to be evil, nor a hater, in order to be an enabler. But, be sure to read the poem: “First they came.) It was written by a Christian Pastor during the late 1930s. First, Hitler attacked the Communists; but, since I was not a Communists, I did nothing. Then, one by one, so the poem goes, we attacked one group after another, etc. Eventually, when he got to YOU, there was no one dos speak-up for you. Have of the people the Nazis killed were not Jews, but people from other groups.

      Many white people, like me, believe that we are not racists; however, it still remains with many, perhaps me, but i has become more subliminal–under the radar.

      Last thing about Trump. He has highjacked a protest against the inordinate number of situations where police officers have killed peaceful black, and turned it into one on Patriotism. I sure didn’t see Donnie in Vietnam, back when it was his and my time to truly demonstrate our patriotism. He had five deferments, including the fifth, the mysterious bone spurs, which didn’t effect his competitive tennis game.

  20. Dear Caralyn. Your comments on why you voted for Trump need to be on television. Have never heard it better articulated anywhere. Which includes many fine venerable commentators on Fox and other major media. Not even Trumps own people I do believe. Forgive the gushing pronouncements, but once in a blue moon they are called for. This is that occasion. Outstanding! Thank you!

  21. I enjoyed reading this post because it showed me that you were able to look past (at least briefly) all of things, now President Trump has done. But for me, it was hard to vote for either candidate at the time because I didn’t like what either candidate stood for and I congratulate you for seeing past it.

    I think that what I should do is maybe take a step back and look at the bigger picture instead of what I choose to focus on and I think that a lot of people do this (especially) with politics. I also wanted to thank you for speaking out on this topic.

  30. Wow I’m not sure if I made a comment on this post.
    I agree with the fact about the hatred thrown on someone who voted for Trump, suddenly they’re racist. That’s absurd to see the hatred. It’s not going to change anything. They’re completely wrong.
    I will say, I do not agree with the information you’ve pose in support of why you did vote for him. Because both sides of government has corruption and has had their hands in corruption even before Trump.
    He was not the only President to get scrutinized by media outlets of lies and scandals. But when a President is caught on tape saying he is allowed to touch women without their permission. That is not a President I want regardless if he supposedly stand for a liberal point of view.
    Everyone should have endorsed Bernie Sanders, who I’d say had more political knowledge than both candidates. No body wanted Hilary for a number of obvious reasons, one being the scandal (happen many moons ago) with her husband, the emails was just an icing on the cake, and Trump was a huge supporter of some unprofessional words and actions against Barack Obama.
    While many may not agree with my view. Until we stop creating two different democracies, there will always be a division in this country. And let’s be really honest, no one knows what happens behind close doors in government. There are many who are professional liars and manipulators. The gift of influence is to build others up, not tear them down.
    I pray we stop dividing and start working together.

  31. Personally with the last presidential election, I was glad that I wasn’t a US citizen. I love the US and what is “used to” represent. America used to be known as the land of the free. Now I see that its citizens aren’t really free. With the way that the Liberals and the media are policing everything to forward their agenda, we might as well call America a Communist state.

    I often do not post anything political in my Instagram, but I came across something online that I recently had to post.

    I hope you guys are able to see it, because it took two people with courage to bring that article to fruition.

    Before anyone starts calling me a “White Supremacist” or anything like that, I’m a brown guy.. LOL…

    I’m tired of laws being made to suit only one sect of people. For instance, we all know that it is bad to use the “N” word on a person of African descent. In fact they made it a law. You can be sued or prosecuted for calling someone that. But somehow it looks like it is OK for American Americans to use it when referring to each other; which they do use it liberally and openly.
    I’m sorry… If it is against the law, then the law should apply to everyone..

    Anyways.. that my take on it…

    You did right when you voted. It was your right to use YOUR vote the way YOU saw fit. No one should punish you for that.

        I suppose that is where blogs like yours’ come in play. There’s always two sides to a coin. I suppose that you have heard of Tomi Lahren and her videos; in which she literally goes on the offensive at the Liberal agenda. However once again when you look at social media, it’s so biased in many ways and I see my friends complete brainwashed about it. When I try to talk to them to see the otherside, they call me “uninformed”…
        “No.. you see I am informed. Yes.. Trump is an idiot, but you have to look at the good as well as the bad. You have to check what is he getting at?”

        It seems right now that the media is sort of trying to portray that everything wrong is Trump’s fault. It’s gone to the point of being ridiculous – “I have a toothache… It’s Trump fault.”

        And don’t get me started on the BLM… Those guys are way out of hand. I watched a lady protesting and asking for justice for her brother. “I’m sorry your brother was shot by a frightened elderly Asian lady as he was robbing her house with a couple of other guys.”
        Makes me wonder if this incident would have ever been reported or mentioned if the old Asian lady was one killed in the incident.

    Policies aside–which could be argued by well-meaning people on all sides–there have been numerous falsehoods and out-and-out confabulations on his part which wouldn’t seem to square with a Christian outlook. (The “thousands of Muslims in New Jersey celebrating 9/11”, inauguration crowd, Trump University, carnage in Chicago “stops right here and right now,” payments to Stormy Daniels, Obama “birther” views… just to name a few). Of course, some might say these were simply campaign or fundraising or “political” statements not meant to be taken seriously. Does the good that people perceive him as doing outweigh the seeming lack of concern for truthtelling?

  43. Caralyn,
    Thank you for your courage and wisdom. There is so much anger in our political world. It seems anyone who professes support for President Trump is mauled by the mob. I also voted for Trump. Let me be clear — I don’t like his method. I wish he could be more civil. Yet I see both sides as uncivil today. I hope ALL of us find a way to “tone it down.”

    I want to talk about illegal immigration. In 1787, Southern Democrats wanted dark-skinned slaves to work their fields and service industry jobs. Today, Western Democrats fight to bring millions of dark-skinned human beings into America to work their fields and service industry jobs for slave wages. And they call those on the political Right “racist.” Crazy, isn’t it?

    These suffering people live in the shadows of society. Young women are sexually-assaulted and raped. They cannot report these crimes for fear of being deported or their family being deported. They are slaves to intimidation and bullying. Young men are also exploited.

    The political Left is deceived by pictures and stories of desperation. These people are suffering, but illegal entry takes them from the frying pan into the fire. The solution is to help rebuild their home nations. Those who come here must enter legally.

    President Trump is correct on this. Thank you for ALL your courage. You are an inspiration.

People always say you are black and should not be a trump supporter and they feel cause am black I should think or act a certain way, why am I not allowed to be who I want to be. Well I believe am part of the silent majority who will not allow myself to be controlled by leftist ideologies. I do my research by myself and do not let the media or people think for me.

  45. Wow. Thank you so much for having the courage to post this. I didn’t! Yet, I wholeheartedly agree with everything you said. When my husband came in one day and announced that Trump was running for president, I laughed–just like Sarah. I said, “This is a joke, right?” But then I listened to what the man stood for. Not his tawdry actions and past, but what he really believed and wanted to do for our country. And then I stopped laughing. I started thanking God for His sense of humor and for surprising us all once again, by using imperfect people (just like He did in the Bible and continues to do today) to do His perfect plan. Now I’m laughing out of joy. God sure does know how to pick ’em!
