Miranda Blair didn’t vote for Donald Trump in 2016 because he scared her.
This week, she was wearing a bright red “Make America Great Again” hat as she waited in sub-freezing temperatures to hear him speak in Manchester, New Hampshire, as he rallied Republican voters to choose him as their nominee.
A lot happened in between to change Ms Blair’s thinking.
“Just a few years ago under Donald Trump, I felt like I could afford groceries and bring my girls skiing, and do all the things we wanted to do,” she said.
The 40-year-old sales manager voted for Barack Obama, a Democrat, in 2008 and found Mr Trump’s lack of political experience disqualifying in 2016. Disliking the options, she didn’t vote that year.
Did she not see the rioters literally smashing glass and breaking into the Capitol building? And physically attacking cops?
If she watched Fox or whatever… no, probably not. Tucker Carlson did an entire hour of edited footage that omitted all the destructive and violent parts.
Yeah shooting someone trying to crawl through broken windows to attack Congress and hang the VP is definitely not violent…
