Why people who voted for Obama twice are suddenly in love with Donald Trump

He voted twice for President Barack Obama. He watches as Donald Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner, berates the president on a near-daily basis.

And yet, he's considering voting for Donald Trump.

"He has a history of getting the job done. We need someone as president who can get the job done, and I feel that he’s not afraid to take on the challenges," he said.

Another panelist who said she had voted for Obama twice said she was impressed with Trump's bravado from the start. She made note of him fighting back when numerous businesses and corporations cut ties with him amid backlash over controversial remarks on immigration.

"He’s not afraid. He doesn’t show fear. He doesn’t show that it’s going to look bad. I mean, even when Macy’s and … NBC fired him, it didn’t tarnish his strength. It didn’t make him feel like, ’Oh, I got canned or I got fired,’ or whatever," the panelist said.

I take it she didn’t vote for Missus Clinton in 2008 either.

Obama is an empty suit and will never be anything more. People are realizing the mistake they made almost too late.

I just wonder if Combover isn't the one who's gonna finally end the deleterious trajectory this nation has been on over the past 50 years.

If so, I sure as hell didn't see that one coming.

It’s going to be hard to win, if we don’t get at least some Obama voters.

GOPe has been trying to find someone who could bring home the Regan Democrats for the last several elections. Now we get someone and they don’t want him.....

They’ll vote for biden or any Dummycrap who gets on the ballot. The logic or explanation this leftards tell on why they will vote for Trump does not fit the narrative of the retarded white liberal.

I have nothing against Trump, but the answer to this is obvious. It's because these are marginal, simple-minded people who will vote for anyone who stands out on television compared to his opponents.

The Dems are done and whoever is the frontrunner will go done in flaming defeat.

Yes.

Step one: Understand that they are not an undifferentiated herd.

They never did. They never wanted Reagan, either. They hated him.

False.

GOPe would rather lose than pursue Reagan Democrats.

The narrative that Obama voters are natural Trump supporters is so ridiculous. About the only thing they haven’t tried now, is that he will order all major U. S. citizen destroy by nuclear weapons on the first day.

They firing blanks folks. They’re out of ammo.

Think of all we know about Obama, and then think that Obama supporters who have stood by him enough to vote for him a second time, are natural Trump supporters.

OMG these folks are fruit bat crazy.
