This would be an interesting thread: When and why did you become a supporter of Trump? You already answered the question, of course.
I never disliked him. I preferred some others.
But his unapologetic attitude won me over. His ability to defend his positions. Quick on his feet. I hate milquetoasts. Own your position or change it.
The hatred of the liberal press impressed me. You can know a man by his enemies.
The fire in his belly was inspiring. He wanted it. I supported Dole, McCain. . . but I never felt the passion from them. I could have done better in the debates than they did.
The selection of Pence gave me solid ground to advocate for him with my conservative Christian brethren.
So it was a serious of advances, for me.
Since he has been elected I have been OVERJOYED at his actions, although he is not contra the homosexual agenda enough for me. I knew that going in.
“although he is not contra the homosexual agenda enough for me”
Trump is moving very fast, in particular on items he considers promises. And, he’s already accomplished more in his first few days than probably a whole collection of past RINO presidents ever have. I suspect he will surpass Reagan.
Regarding your concern, he’s starting out with keeping promises and high priority items. He’s a straight Christian. I suspect he’s already got something going on a back burner regarding homos, but wants his priority stuff in place first.
I figured he’d be better than Bush, but he’s actually surpassing my wildest fantasies regarding cleaning up the nation.
