Miranda Blair didn’t vote for Donald Trump in 2016 because he scared her.

This week, she was wearing a bright red “Make America Great Again” hat as she waited in sub-freezing temperatures to hear him speak in Manchester, New Hampshire, as he rallied Republican voters to choose him as their nominee.

A lot happened in between to change Ms Blair’s thinking.

“Just a few years ago under Donald Trump, I felt like I could afford groceries and bring my girls skiing, and do all the things we wanted to do,” she said.

The 40-year-old sales manager voted for Barack Obama, a Democrat, in 2008 and found Mr Trump’s lack of political experience disqualifying in 2016. Disliking the options, she didn’t vote that year.

    Strange isn’t it?

    I want answers to two questions from anyone wanting my vote:

    What are you going to do for me?

    How are you going to pay for it?

    That’s it. The weird thing is that Trump couldn’t give a fuck about doing anything for me, or anyone else who isn’t already a billionaire or has nice tits and blonde hair.
