I started this last week. I went door to door to see if all are registered to vote in my subdivision of 50 homes. I went to 25 homes. I brought my senior pug (who is now in a wheelchair) with me. I thought I needed a good visual prop to get them to open the door.I saw that many now have installed Ring at their doors. In 2016, there were about 30% of the people who said they were voting Democrat. They had just arrived from Penn, NJ and NY. Some of them have subsequently left because they hated living in the South and thought we are ignorant with that accent “an all” and too many churches.
This year we have newcomers from many new places. A retired border patrol agent from CA, a firefighter from Florida, a retired man who said he “worked for the Military” in some capacity. By his non answers, I surmised he was in some intelligence capacity.
Everyone of them said they were registered or registering to vote for Reps and Trump. I made sure they had all the information they needed to make that happen. We talked lot of local politics as things have been heating up here in my town as the idiots in state govt want to change the current roads to toll-roads. You can imagine the opinions I heard!
I rolled up to one house with my pug and what did I see? A new neighbor with a US flag and under it the biggest red Trump flag I have ever seen. We did a high five and then he gave my pug some cookies.
So a good day for all. I will go back and recheck as we get closer to November.
Lots of people are flying American flags too. What gets me, several had Trump 2020 or Drain the Swamp next to the flags.
Also, lots of people running around with MAGA hats. I have traveled all over the country. Was in Nashville a couple of months ago. Lots of people with MAGA hats on, walking down Broadway. The same in different parts of Florida. Going back to Florida again soon. Will update later!
Mama...your story brightened my day. Thank you for all you are doing for the big Donald. The benefits to our children and grandchildren are significant and meaningful for sure.
I love what you did!
Every one of us should also do the same!
I will. I’m even thinking of going to some black neighborhoods—not ghettos.
What would be a good way to pitch Trump; as a white person talking to a black person?
I think jobs, jobs, jobs.
Wow great going pug as good as activism gets,we all need to do that as well.
