Trump Voters Show President They Can Complain on Twitter, Too

Ms. Nelson reluctantly voted for Mr. Trump — “because of Hillary’s lies” — but grew disillusioned with Mr. Trump’s behavior, which she thought would change after the election. On Feb. 6, she added her message for the president to the fray: “We need a mature adult as president. Can I take my vote back?” (For Ms. Nelson, the tipping point was seeing Mr. Trump dismiss news and negative polls as fake that day.)


...and so on. I can't believe how naive these people are! They had a personal dislike of HRC, so they vote
for a shady billionaire instead?

At least it gives insight into these people's mentality. But look how bad their reasons are for voting Trump.

They have been so quiet the last few weeks. You would think they gave up on Facebook. I just keep rubbing it in.

I really believe that the Russians are really good at interfering with democratic elections and experts at propaganda and misinformation.

People that I thought were fairly reasonably minded individuals were posting absolute nonsense on FB during the election. Granted these were older people (60's-70's) that didn't seem to understand fake news and are bit naive when it comes to the internet but they were absolutely duped.
