My friend in US voted for Trump four years ago – who did she vote for this time?
Shellshocked by Mr Donald Trump winning the US presidential election four years ago, I found out someone I knew actually voted for him and tried to understand why she did for my column.
Below is our online conversation:
That was in 2016.
After four years of the Trump presidency, I wondered who she voted for last week.
Her answer surprised and disappointed me.
So she has become so disillusioned she didn't vote for anyone.
Well, at least she finally recognises that the man she once voted for is an "arrogant ass".
EARLIER: Trumpocalypse now? I asked a friend if she voted for him & she said 'Yup'
