More than 90% of my friends are Trump people. They are mostly quiet about it, but they are there in the millions. I even have LGBT and non-whites who are supporters, although it is even tougher for them to “come out” in their communities. The friends who don’t support him make it personal...it’s hardly ever about his policies. They just don’t like the man personally. So, even though the left screams like banshies, doesn’t make them the majority.

Here's one thing I don't get. The left constantly brushes Trump with broad strokes that he hates gays. However, there are many in the LBGT community that respect his personal power, decision making, and acceptance of the LGBT community without virtue signaling about it. You can choose to live peacefully alongside the community without fawning over it. I feel like Trump strikes that mature balance and many in the LGBT community and straight people like myself respect him for it.
My favorite story has come to me via my friend who owns a liquor store. My friend is from India and he is one of the most based people I know. He absolutely loves President Trump.
The other day, he was telling me how some older lady came in and assumed that because he was a "Brown guy" (his words exactly), that he was a Democrat and a Hillary supporter. He said she started bashing Trump and then he proceeded to respectfully and patiently destroy every thing she said with facts and common sense (while the line had 5 or 6 people in it). He said she was shocked and said "You're a Trump supporter?", he said "Absolutely, I've been to other countries and I've seen the devastation caused by Liberal policies, President Trump is one of the best Presidents this country has had."
She stopped talking to him and left the store. lmao. He is awesome.
