Back in 2016 I was a tear-stained mess in Canada watching Hillary Clinton lose to Donald Trump. My then-boyfriend didnt get why I was so upset which made everything feel worse
The shock of that election made me think deeper about my views: living abroad (now in Mexico) its easy to label half of America as bad people but thats too simple. The real story wasnt in my social-media bubble or news feeds - it was in Americas forgotten places where working-class people felt left-behind
These days the same old anti-Trump stories keep coming but many of us see through them. While Kamala Harris and the Democrats talk about identity-politics regular folks care about:
- Jobs and making ends meet
- Safe streets without open drug markets
- Womenʼs sports and spaces
- Free speech rights
- Child protection from rushed medical choices
The Democrats made these issues worse; under their watch weʼve seen crime go up in cities sex-trafficking increase and women lose hard-won rights (like Title IX protections from the 70s)
You just ban it. The president bans it. You just donʼt let it happen
Trump might not be perfect - but he speaks plain truth about tough issues. While Harris stumbles through interviews he talks direct to people about their real problems. Its not about losing moral values: its about seeing past media spin and looking at what actually works for Americaʼs families‚ women and working-class citizens
