Look, many Republicans did not vote for Trump because they did not like or trust him to keep his campaign promises.

Other Republicans reluctantly voted for Trump, hoping he would keep his campaign promises, but more as a vote against Hillary.

Both of these groups are now firmly in Trump’s camp. He has proven his word is good and he governs the way he campaigns.

Then you move to the independents. Some voted for Trump because Hillary was repulsive while others did not vote at all.

Trump now has their support as well. Those that reluctantly voted for Trump have had their vote affirmed by a man who keeps his campaign word.

Some of those that did not vote for anyone now see Trump’s word is good, his results are solid.

Trump has not lost any support, only gained it.

On the other hand, what do Democrats offer?

Socialism, pandering to illegal trespassers and taxpayer funded transgendered surgery....not a winning campaign platform in a strong peacetime economy.

The Democrat chances hinged on accomplishments of the past three years. So what have they done? In fact, if you toss in cities and states run by Democratic political figures....what have they done?

If Trump were to use the billion in campaign funds (he’ll hit that by mid-summer), he can talk direct to San Francisco residents with 2-minute ads talking about how screwed up the city is. Same for Portland and Seattle.

Tons of lost opportunities for the Democrats. Achievements would have helped their message more.

I can attest to your words being factual. My vote for Trump was as much a vote against Hillary as it was for Trump, now I am a firm ‘Forever Trumper’. I have yet to see, or hear, of people who have gone the other way (voted for Trump and now are opposed). The people against him now were against him then.

In my experience and just listening to others talk, every word you wrote is true.

I was at a dinner party last night at the GF's house and just listened to all the previously never-Trumpers experess their disgust at the Democrat party.

One fellow who HATES President Trump says he's going to vote for him becuase (like me..) he's near retirement age and is loving what his 401k has done with our President's leadership.

And THAT right there sums up why people will vote for President Trump: It all comes down to their own financial situation being BETTER than it was under Obama. Period. Game. Set. Match. President Trump.
