The number of people supporting Trump in Kamala Harris’ home California has decreased
“It is inexplicable to me that anybody can cast a ballot for Donald Trump,” A middle-aged American lady named Roxanne made her position clear to Media as she and her boyfriend, Richard, were visiting San Francisco’s Golden Gate.
Democrats have been in power in California, the state on the West Coast with the most electoral votes, for a considerable amount of time. In this state, the outcome is so obvious that neither Trump nor Kamala Harris intend to spend a lot of time campaigning there.
This is also Harris’ backyard; the stereotypical “Californian girl” was raised in Oakland, attended UC Law College in San Francisco, and went on to become both California’s attorney general and the district attorney for San Francisco. In 2017, she started her career in politics as a California senator.
Although there is a lot of support for Harris here, particularly among women who seem to be hankering for the US’s first female president, endorsing Donald Trump is seen with some disdain. Although they did not say it on public, many of the Americans Media talked with seemed to admire Trump.
Chuck, on the other hand, is unique in that he boldly displays “Support Trump” flags outside his house. Chuck lives in Sacramento, the capitol of California.
“Trump is adamant about border policy, border controls, and border limits. Being a prosperous businessman, he is the ideal candidate for our economy. Chuck noted the high cost of petrol and said, “He has demonstrated in his previous presidency that he can balance our budget and help us be energy-independent.”
He said that Joe Biden hasn’t shown his concern for the state of the economy. “He is not really concerned about the conflicts in the Middle East, the Gaza Strip, or Russia and Ukraine. Chuck said, “I believe Trump is the one who can put us back on course and where we need to be.” He asserted that Republicans had an advantage by citing the most recent vice presidential debate.
The most crucial problems in the US elections, according to Sacramento resident Len Eisen, were immigration, the economy, and the global diplomatic situation (the two wars).
“We are being gently led into a global conflict by the present government. It seems that no one is home at this time. Unlike the present government, which does not communicate at all, Trump is a hands-on diplomat who maintains an open mind on communication. Eisen said, “He has a track record of effectively communicating American viewpoints.
He said that while Trump may seem a little coarse at times, they want him to be the one to take control of the economy since the present Harris-Biden government serves the interests of the wealthy. “Trump is a somebody who prioritizes the interests of Americans above those of the world. People in America are sick of the latter. According to Eisen, the Biden administration lacks any policies.
Media also saw a mile-long “Trump Train” on the key interstate between Sacramento and San Francisco. This convoy of hundreds of cars was flying “Support Trump” banners.
However, many of the Californian women Media talked with longed for local girl Kamala Harris to become the first female US president.
Since Trump’s administration was characterized by instability, we believe that the biggest threat to democracy is what he presents. People fear that there won’t be any safeguards if the President returns. Women’s freedom and liberties are at stake. “If Trump is elected, he will undoubtedly pursue a federal ban on abortion,” said Roxanne from San Francisco.
She called Trump a liar and a robber. “As a woman, I am horrified by his previous actions, the way he supports improper behavior toward women above everything else. There is no doubt that we are prepared for a female president, according to Roxanne. Trump’s assassination attempts, according to her spouse Richard, are “horrible,” but they won’t change sympathy votes in his favor. Richard said, “The overwhelming majority of voters have already made up their minds.”
Voters shouldn’t remain indifferent any more, according to Roxanne, as the nation’s democratic principles are at jeopardy. But as a lot of California’s quiet Trump backers point out, a lot will rely on the total number of votes.
