| A lot of my friends, who did not know my political choice were surprised I voted for Donald Trump, a few yelled at   |
| me, one who was my friend for more than 15 years screamed he hopes I die, others called me names, names of things    |
| they know I am not, some said they will no longer will be my friend.                                                 |
| I said nothing of the sort like that to them…and I knew their political stance loud amd clear as they shouted it.    |
| Still I respected them and it did not change my feelings for them… sadly they turned out to be fair weather …..      |
|                                                                                                                      |
| I did not vote for Donald Trump merely because I feel he is the best candidate to run the Presidency, although I do  |
| believe wholeheartedly he is… you see I voted for him because I actually pay attention to him, and what his actions  |
| are, not the edited slandering versions of the soros owned news channels that cut and alter what he says… shame on   |
| them!                                                                                                                |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Note: I voted for Donald Trump because I really like him, and I deeply respect him.                                  |
|                                                                                                                      |
| God bless Donald Trump, may angels watch over him and his family                                                     |
|                                                                                                                      |
