Democrats who voted for Trump sound off on CNN
It's obvious from the leading questions by the reporter that they were expecting different answers.
To be honest, I'm surprised CNN aired this. So kudos to them for this small bit of honesty. It pops the fantasy bubble of 'buyer's remorse' that so many liberals are trying to sell. They can't wrap their heads around why anyone would've voted for Trump in the first place, so they can't imagine why anyone would still support him.
So of course, liberals will just write these people off as being stupid and ignorant.

The group of Democrats, who voted for President Trump in 2016, sat with CNN’s Martin Savage in an interview that aired on Wednesday and gave their assessment of the president’s first year in office.
“Something that he said that really sticks with me is that he said he wants to give the power back to the American people, and that’s something I can certainly get behind,” student Justis Harrison said before Savage started asking questions.
“We’re one year in. How’s he doing?” Savage asked to start.
“Fantastic,” Rick Green, an ironworker, responded.
“Phenomenal,” machine shop worker, Geno DiFabio, added.
“Better than I ever would have dreamt,” another woman said. “I mean that sincerely.”
“Yes, I agree. He’s doing wonderful, he’s staying on task,” Derrick Anderson, a pastor, opined.
Savage asked the panel about their stance on immigration, which they all said was “huge” to them.
“I feel like when people come here illegally, that’s just very disrespectful,” Harrison said. “You don’t respect our laws and you shouldn’t be able to come here freewheeling like that.”
DiFabio said he used to cringe at the president’s use of Twitter but now he understands why he uses the medium.
“I’m starting to get an inkling why he uses Twitter in the way he does. Because if all he had to rely on is what people say about him, oh my God, I might not like the guy,” he said. “But I love the guy. I love the job he’s doing.
And Harrison, who is black, fought back against allegations that the president is a racist.
“He was just the nicest person and if he was a racist as everyone paints him out to be, he could have just walked right past me and not even said a word,” she said.
“Do you think he is a liar?” Savage asked.
“Do I think he’s lied? No,” DiFabio responded. “But I think he’s fallen short in some of his goals. We all do.”
The panel was also happy with the way the economy is working with President Trump at the helm.
“Industry’s are booming everywhere I’ve seen,” Green said.
“I look around here (and) I don’t see a boom,” Savage fired back.
“In this area no but I fell like there’s small businesses that are starting to pick up,” Green shot back.
“If you expand your business in the inner city,” Anderson said, “my community will benefit from this tax cut.”
“Do you think the media gives the president a fair shake?” Savage asked.
“I don’t think so at all,” Harrison responded.
And as far as the president’s tough, straight talk, the panel could not be happier.
“When he’s like tenacious, sometimes and says stuff off the cuff, like we do, like real Americans do, you know, we’re not perfect,” retired mother of four, Anna Para, said. “I’m tired of suave, I’m tired of polished, I’m tired of the teleprompter, you know, I am. I want my country back.”
