The Daily 202: Trump voters have buyer's remorse in North Carolina focus group
By James Hohmann November 16 at 7:11 AM
THE BIG IDEA: Republican women who voted for President Trump in North Carolina said during a focus group Wednesday night that they are embarrassed by and exasperated with him.
-- Annie Anthony, 56, voted for Trump last year because she opposes abortion and did not like how Hillary Clinton handled Benghazi. Now she fears that Trump is marching us toward war with North Korea. She describes the first 10 months of his presidency as “chaotic, stressful and an uphill battle.”
“While I thought his ideas appealed to me, since he’s been in there he’s embarrassed me by his behavior,” said Anthony, a divorced college graduate who runs a local nonprofit volunteer center and drives for Uber to make ends meet. “He behaves so unpresidential. The words he uses. The tweeting. I mean, he dresses nice. And Melania is looking good. When he was away (in Asia), he was great at being a president. He’s the showman. But here at home, I can’t imagine how they let him build a country club — let alone be in one. Because adults don’t behave that way. I’ve been surprised that a billionaire would behave the way he has …
“I don’t have a problem with him tweeting,” she continued. “I follow him because I want to see what he’s saying myself and not have someone interpret it for me. But I think that his language is unprofessional. He uses words like ‘sad’ and ‘bad.’ That’s first grade language. We’re an intelligent population who elected you. Represent us!”

After saying "adults don't behave that way" describing tRump's behavior here in the US. Funny thing is he was tweeting before he was elected, bullying others, and using "first-grade language" already.
Kind of makes her statement about being part of an intelligent population who voted for tRump an oxymoron.
The gist of that song is a woman encounters a snake and decides to take it in to live with her. Ultimately, the snake bites her and she is surprised, dismayed. Whereupon the slimy, slithering snake coldly reminds her ....”You knew darn well I was a snake...BEFORE You took me in.”
Who did they think he was during the campaign?? And now she professes shock? Give me a break. Her story has touched my heart.
Dresses nice?
He dresses nice Melania looks good They have lots of money
That's enough for most of the shallow and stupid
