Dear pedes, it all started with that news about that famous escalator ride of Donald Trump with his wife Melania. He then held a speech with a mighty-yet-collected tone "we are going to Make America Great Again". I trusted nothing he said. How could a rich guy support the commoner? I was under the impression of oppression by the wealthy. The case for me was that communism from the DDR ought to be given a chance in western Germany. Looking back I regret it. I started doing real research. Who is Trump? A wealthy guy. What were his actions to the public? Charitable deeds like giving money to an ill child, boasting about his persona, settings bad people right. What mission does he set for himself? Defeating what he deems as wrong. It sparked my curiousity. But this was not enough to make me flip. You know I have been bullied as a child when I was in school. I have always been a nerd, an outsider that did not want to belong to the big crowd. I always thought that those people that laugh about crappy MSM jokes or crack jokes about movies I did not watch were hard to get comfortable with. And my brain has always been a little nuts, suffice to say I am good at striking through one path very efficiently instead of broad examination. So I felt comfortable being an outsider. I had a hard time seeing any support for Trump and I felt sympathy that he was being bullied. All this time that I have followed Trump for the five and a half years, this guy has endured constant attacks from the MSM and his political opponents. While some have been part of the typical political gamble (you get used to poking at political statements and countering with arguments) there was a vile evilness creeping in the dark shadows. There was something off with the headlines that were written about Trump. I think that many would at least be making an odd face about vile statements about the president but I would do so to find the underlying truth. Otherwise my nerves would not take it. It is part of my psyche as a good Christian. You cannot quite pinpoint it but the bias of the media against Trump; I have been convinced about it since day one. Thus I sided with Trump. By today I am convinced that Journalism does only sell if it is written in a nerve-racking way. But still I would not believe that this way were right. Some people would believe the media despite their sensationalism and paint the orange man as a bad guy. I set out to post on various news outlet comment sections in 2017 to correct the records on German and US outlets. I felt lonely but I did realize that in 2018 the numbers of pro-Trump people did increase in my close vision (of course they did make a pact to erase the ability to comment on all news outlets somewhen in 2019). Today I still cannot understand why people can honestly be against Trump because that guy is doing an honest job by working hard. My father was a glass factory worker who was lifting heavy boxes of glass onto conveyor belts. I compare the work that Trump is doing to this but on a mental level.

I hope that you could relate to my story and find good reasons for why Trump should be supported. MAGA! Please get him a second term, pedes.

I mentioned this post on my developer forums over here: https://osdn.net/projects/magic-txd/forums/33387/43293/

Might be taking a faithful break with hope... My nerves are seriously messed up. Again, please destroy the domestic evil and give this man his deserved second term!
