Pollsters do a great disservice when they fail to ask the good questions.

For example, when a Trump supporter says that Trump is a corrupt individual and not fit to be President but they are still going to vote for him because he has done great things for the country and the economy. The next question should "What specifically has he done?" The economy was in the midst of the longest recovery period when Trump took office, what did Trump do specifically to improve that?

What did Trump do to improve healthcare? The opioid crisis? Minority or black unemployment is at an all time low but all along the Obama recovery it reached points of all time lows also. How did the tax cut help you? Or did it?

What is Trump's immigration plan? Is it working? Why do we have more people now at our borders if his plan is working?

Do you think we are safer now than before Trump came to office?

Really, most Trump supporters love him because he, like them, is a pure bigot and racist.
