You prob hate POCs too. You are not welcome in DC


I live in DC, I'm a POC, and when I went in the voting booth and hit the button for Kamala -- and then I just couldn't do it. I changed it to Trump.

Reasons:
1. Gaza. Biden's funding of the genocide feels completely evil and when Kamala said she wants to be a "lethal force" I knew she would continue it.
2. Crime. I've been mugged, my kid is old enough that he walks to and from school on his own and has to walk through a drug market. Trump said he wants to clean up DC. That's fine with me.
3. Kamala is an empty vessel. I didn't have faith that she could be a strong and decisive leader through war/disasters/etc.
4. Ukraine. Kamala would continue to destruction of Ukraine for the sake of weakening Russia, Trump may actually find a way to stop it. Maybe he won't, but Kamala definitely would not.
5. JD Vance is the most intelligent person of all 4 of the ballots.

Overall, Trump actually felt like the "greater good" option.

I have told NO ONE. Not my husband, not my friends, not our community.


These are excellent reasons. A shame you have to hide them.


I do talk about those issues -- my husband knows how I feel on every single reason I mentioned. I just never told anyone who I actually voted for, like I never literally say "I voted for Trump." But When I asking questions and bringing up these points it's incredible how many Dems in DC agree with me (that Biden funded the genocide, that Kamala is empty, that crime is out of control)

The crime problem started during Trump's administration and will inevitably get worse under his second administration because he is a total idiot and a complete garbage person.


While I agree with your views on Trump, it's pretty clear the crime wave a few years ago in DC and other major cities was largely due to policy failures on the left, not due due to Trump's policies. Once could argue Trump amplified the craziness from the Left at that time, but that's about it.


The USAO prosecution rate started to fall under Jessie Liu, who was appointed by Trump. The rise in crime started during his first term, before the pandemic.

Trump had little to no impact on DC crime during the first term. DCs crime spike in particular was driven by young people, many of whom were under 18. The spike coincided with Karl Racine thinking that DCs juvenile criminals should not be properly held accountable for their crimes and merely given a hug and required to participate in a circle as a consequence. He was DCs George Gascon or Chesa Boudin, and we know how that turned out.
