“I so much wanted Trump,” Donna told a focus group held Tuesday night in the Charlotte area by the Democratic pollster Peter Hart. “I so much wanted a non-politician. But I don’t trust him, and I’ve become afraid of him.”
Why afraid? asked Hart.
“Because I just don’t think he knows when to shut up,” Donna answered. “If he would just say, I’m a businessman, I’m not a politician, I’m going to make America great again — and stop right there — then I would vote for him.”
When did Trump lose you? Hart asked.
“Around the summertime, so it guess it was around the conventions,” Donna answered. “I started getting nervous. He just went off and his face gets all red.”
Another Hart question: When his face gets red, what does that say to you?
“I see a temper, a temper tantrum, like a little boy,” Donna said. “I had five brothers, and I remember that face. And that’s when I got scared of him.”
