I don't think his following is so silent. Just last week when he was in El Paso, the crowds numbered in the thousands indoors and many more outside with some estimates saying 2-3 thousand.This right here.
Unless he seriously messes up, I'm voting for him in 2020. I have other coworker that said the same also.
Just like the 'silent majority' in 2016 - I think there's a HUGE (silent) following.
I don't care how much of a jerk he is.
The dimocrat Beto drew a few hundred.
The lame stream media keeps you thinking his supporters are silent, but in reality I don't think they are.
Sure, I cringe on occasion with some of the tweets, but If he didn't tweet (and the lame stream media reports on every one) his message would never get out. He knows this. It's a tool. A crude tool at times, but nevertheless it works.
The media excoriated him about his tweet saying the fake attack by the gay black guy was setting back racial relations is totally wrong.
He was spot on. Fake hate crimes to make a political statement are increasing. Victim politics are on the rise, and Jussie Smollett just set back racial relations. His own race went after him, while the media is circling the wagons to defend him just because of Trump.
