It's too early to say if he will for me, but I think he can. Never underestimate the stupidity of the populace.

I don't think a lot of people are that in touch with what goes on. The way the information about what's gone on in Yemen (which the US has been involved in since the Obama administration through our support for Saudi Arabia), how we seem generally too ignorant of what's happening on the Gaza strip in protest of the US moving it's embassy to Jerusalem (tens of thousands of witnesses with the rest of the world wanting to intervene, and the US working to block it in the UN), how the positive economic effects of the tax breaks are skewed as pro-administration propaganda (The minimum wage was mandated to hit $15 before those tax breaks, so companies raised wages to stay competitive with other low-end competitors, and generally wage growth has been higher on the low end or even more so on the high end of wages than in the middle. This is not to mention how Harley Davidson is maybe an indicator of a company taking the tax break and going overseas being threat manufactured by this policy.), the way we are treating our allies worse than we are treating one of our biggest threats (the northern half of Korea), the threat of an avoidable trade war driving us into another (global) recession, the way those last two things kind of favor China with them filling the economic vacuum we create by pulling out of international partnerships as well as removing military assets from the Korean peninsula that are there to aid our allies South Korea and Japan, and the way this current administration and congress are also deregulating the financial institution while removing the protections of public lands such as national parks (why allow there the possibility to frack a national park that already has earthquakes, and said fracking would only make it worse?). There's also issues involving immigration, gun control, and a rollback of social reforms while people get upset about some guy's nonsense tweets about why football players won't kneel, and professional teams don't want to visit the white house. If people really thought a lot harder than they do about those issues I'm not sure they'd be so pro-Trump.
