I believe him as much as I believe anyone. What makes the difference to me is that the Establishment really is out to get him.
If Trump had held political office and had a record of carrying through on his campaign agenda, I would be much more likely to believe him. But I’m skeptical because he has flip flopped so much on public statements he has made and where he has spent his money on political candidates. He hasn’t sold me yet. I’ll need to hear a lot more.
I’m more likely to believe (or discount) what an elected official at either the state or national level says because he/she has an actual record of carrying through or not.
