Lifelong GOP Voters In Michigan Describe Their Changing Views | NBC News NOW
Oh wow! THREE PEOPLE.
The interviewer is wearing a mask. No one else is.
Noticed that too. Typical Trumpers. She protects them. All they care about is themselves.
I noticed that too. They are six feet away and they are outside, but I would still have a mask!
Haha – “business background.” Yes, he had a background in bankrupting 5 of his businesses, which is why he had to keep borrowing and borrowing more money, not paying it back, until finally banks (except Deutsche) wouldn’t give him money, hmmmmm……now where to go borrow huge sums of money….?
The economy is his 6th bankruptcy, and we are paying for it!
So let me get this straight.
Trump Airlines – Failed
Trump Ice – Failed
Trump Board Game – Failed
Trump’s Casinos – Failed
Trump Mortgage – Failed
Trump Steaks – Failed
Trump Travel – Failed
Trump Communications – Failed
Trump University – Failed
Five brankruptcies.
Trump couldn’t get a loan from no one except Deutsche Bank.
But they wanted a business man to run the country. Trump Supporters: GOVERNMENT IS NOT A BUSINESS!
Your gonna give yourself a headache.
elect a clown expect a circus…
So Jerry is waiting to see Biden’s VP choice? That’s just nonsense. How could that possibly make a huge difference to any reasonably intelligent voter? The simple choice is Biden or Trump… and it’s pretty damned clear Jerry doesn’t want to say who he’s leaning toward. Jerry would still be “on the fence” even if Trump started World War 3 tomorrow. For people like him, the decision is clearly less about what’s good for the country, and more about not supporting a Democrat or liberal under any circumstances. Unfortunately there too many Jerrys in America eating up the far right conspiracy theories, refusing to wear a mask, and basically dooming our republic. God help our next generation.
Trump is an atrocious leader and I think he should be voted out. However, I believe Joe Biden’s age and culture has me thinking he’s not going to be any better.
What business? This man bankrupted and you see him as a business man? Interested. He is a con man.
I wish there were more open conversations like this making the news.
I also would love if the full conversations were made available online, unedited. I get that such long form journalism wouldn’t fit well on TV but you already have the footage- why not just post it online?
This guy who said I want see a platform from Trump and Biden is one of the reasons why we are here today.
I wish this was a laughing matter but it’s not. When you have a leader who is very angry and has no respect for women. Common sense is not hard to have if you have a heart and brain. Stay Woke !!!!
That guy in the end fools only himself, he is a Trump voter.
Lol..lst guy if Bidens running mate is radical he will vote for Trump! 🤣🤣 cant fix stupid!
It makes me laugh abundantly when Trump voters say they are waiting to see because they want someone who is “qualified”… I chuckle when I tell them based on their support for Trump they would recognize “qualified” if it hit them in the face…
Thank God not every one is willing to hand full authority to Trump agenda….yep she is right about anger then turns to hatred…never thought I would feel that way for a president..Praying that God forgives me…
The trump platform : power, dictatorship and getting richer .
Good god , he is still on the fence, what will it take, absolutely not paying attention Geez 🙄
Just read any biography of Trump. A life of lies, cruelty and failures.
Yeah. Not unbelievable huh?
How can you possibly be “on the fence?”
Whoever Biden picks will have more qualifications than Trump ever had, they really just have to look at his track record to know he has gone bankrupt 6 times ! Loser that’s what he is in anything he touches
Great interview. To bad we could not have had that in all 50 states
When she shared that she is the angriest she’s ever been in her life, did anyone else want to raise their hand too? 🙋🏼♀️
Yep, thats me right now
When that puckered hole on the puffy orange face spews out a diarrhea of lies, illogic, and magical thinking, I see red! I have never felt this much disgust for someone! Just want this crazy show to be canceled!
You wouldn’t have a problem today IF YOU TOOK VOTING SERIOUSLY.
The bald guy’s gonna vote for Trump, especially if Joe Biden picks a black woman for VP.
I hope I’m wrong. I really, really do.
LBB Bee, you called it, Kamala is Biden’s choice, we learned today! And to be on the fence and laugh about it is very concerning. That man’s family should look into mental health care for him. To still be with trump is to still want this experiment called America to go down the drain.
proud Liberal I am glad to hear that. There are a few good men in that demographic. Sounds like yours is one of them.
ocd4lane I understand. I hope so too.
LBB Bee So your basically saying you can smell the racism sexism an of course always voting against there own interest !!!
If you believe this crapola I got a bridge I’ll sell you for the low low price of $40,000.00
Blah blah
Action- voting 🗳
Up to you if you keep being blind.
the democrats could pick an upturned broom with a bucket for a head and it would be more qualified than trump…
The third guy is totally missing the point. He still thinks tRump and the Republicans have a platform. Hahahahaha 🤣 They haven’t had a platform since before Obama got elected. They obstruct, they dither, they make up conspiracy theories to cover for their own inadequacies, they bully, they threaten, and they make last minute decisions based on fantasy. The one thing none of them have is a platform unless you take in their “platform of destruction”.
No way I thought Trump would be a good president, a lot of it was I tried of seeing a black president
The fence guy will turn once we get to 500k Covid deaths. 170k isn’t enough.
THANK GOD – OPEN MINDED PEOPLE !!!!! We are NOT better off than we were 4 years ago….!!!! Cancel the Chump & Putz TV Show, VOTE BLUE !
The guy on the fence likes the way his ball sacks feels on the fence. Kinda makes him feel close to the man who has a firm grip on his balls.

“businessman” he was the worst businessman and couldn’t get a loan. he’s a pathetic con man. wtf
How can anybody with half a brain still support that traitor??? He has trashed everything in your country.
I never understood why people believe business people would be good at running government. It’s not the same model. And these people sound like they are looking for any excuse to vote for Tramp again. Who cares who Biden picks for VP? Vote for Biden, not Tramp or a decoy candidate!
These people are clueless and haven’t learned a thing smh 🤨👎🏽
A failed business man was a choice?
Trump has and is using all of Hitler’s tactics. Just replace “Jews” with “Democrats”. Fear mongering, repetitive lies, bribery and supremacy. It’s a script and the sheep can’t see it.
Agree with that! I think Trump is a demi anti Christ. The anti Christ is suppose to be highly intelligent, physically handsome, and very charming so that means Trump is not it. A broken man who was not loved employs evil to control others through fear to further his vision of a hateful world. Scary stuff. Vote to get Trump and his enablers out 2020!
He finished 🤣 Joe Biden has already won
That guy on the fence – watch you don’t fall over- there’s spikes on the other side
Why even bother with these people?
Anyone is better than trump
So they all want a GOP Lite, right wing corporate dem…..ok got it!
Trump supporter in 2016 and again 2020. He is a better President than our last one and several more in the past. He has improved our economy and will restore what has been lost because of COVID. Joe Biden will raise taxes which will hurt our economy. Joe is not for the American ppl. He is a democratic puppet.
These people didn’t give a crap when Trump was destroying the lives of others, they only care now that their lives are up-ended. Typical Trump voters – selfish selfish SELFISH.
That’s a cute mask
Anyone who is still undecided at this point has a serious character defect. Trump is not the future.
Republicans for Biden 2020🇺🇸
Time to wake up America, once and for all!
Bunker boy is the virus in this country! If Trump win in this election more and more people will die.. he doesn’t care about America he only cares about his business! #nototrump
The reporter doesn’t need a mask if they are 6 feet away
Someone educate her
if at impeachment you were still pro Trump, you deserve no praise for changing your mind now. you have only done what you should have at the end of year one of this Orange menace’s “reign”.
3 republicans no Masks, Reporter Mask, They will all vote Trump.
After there governor a dem o rat killing off the people what I think
So the one guy has a problem with black women??? Qualified Trump wasn’t and still isn’t Qualified
A mask doesn’t prevent you from getting covid it prevents you from giving others covid. Everyone here should wear a mask
“His bravado irks me” is the nicest way of calling someone a cocky SOB I’ve ever heard.
Elizabeth Warren radical? Haha! Really? Why?
Because she wants healthcare? Clean water? A clean environment? A living wage? These folks are crazy af.
Why is the US so divided and so full of hatred for each other,
It is bizarre…
The real question is…. Is that a spider web manhole cover at @4:41?!?
I don’t forgive them for being against trump. They’ve been Republicans long enough to be a major part of what’s wrong with U.S.
This so disturbing. How can any intelligent person even consider voting for trump who is destroying America in bits and pieces and brags about in public venues every day. Knowing that trump is a liar with aggressive tendencies, how can they focus on anything but bringing sanity back to the WH. A vote for trump after he has directed masked militia to attack peaceful protesting crowds of your fellow Americans, makes you complicit with racism, babies in cages and constant dishonest statements.
How can you ignore his outright failure to organize a fight against the virus which has now killed over 150,000 Americans.
And, he is so obviously mentally impaired. How can decent people still consider keeping trump and his criminal administration in power.
What exactly is Trump’s platform? All he does is spread fear, lies and hatred. GOP is achieving their dream of getting rid of “wasteful” programs like social security and medicare. And our right to protest. Watch what they do, not what they say.
Republicans will always vote cult, non science and racism! Democrats will always fail to change
Changing views, but clearly not enough to wear masks. Not one of them.
If Joe Biden wins the white vote it will because of the pandemic not social justice! We need to understand that!
We are going to lose white votes once he picks a black woman.
NO Cryptkeeper Joe!
12 MORE years!
They are gonna Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski their votes. Just like Collins, they are gonna say to themselves that Trump has learned his lesson.
If Biden’s VP is black….. Biden will not win the election.
Allison’s voice intensity is about right here, normally she appears to shout a conversation, it bugs me so much, I regularly turn her off. MSNBC, fire Allison, find someone with a better vocal control.
Business background that’s a laugh trump’s been bankrupt numerous times ,no bank in America would give him a loan so he had to ask foreign governments for help so he is be holding to them on a large scale, why do you think he never says anything bad about Russia or Saudi Arabia
Bald guy on the end: “I’m on the fence until I see the vice presidential pick.”
CODE: If Biden picks a Black man or woman, I’m voting for Trump.”
I don’t care who Biden picks of his choices. A vote for BIDEN is a vote for US! Our lives are literally depending on it!
I want these people with regrets who voted for #45 to admit that if Hillary would have been president this pandemic would have been under control like New Zealand or South Korea or Europe ! Get the point
Crazy how his racism doesn’t bother them smh naw its not crazy its sick how these people are okay with this
“I know what Trump’s platform is….” Seriously? You are the only person in the whole world, then, who has any idea what Trump has in mind, other than lining his pockets with your money. Seriously?
tim aldrich, they didn’t vote for him because he is a businessman, they voted for his rhetoric against colored people and for their white supremacy. they couldn’t say that, so they hide behind his business skills which is non existence.
Vote Biden/Harris November 3rd.
I always laugh when people say Donald Trump was this great businessman he bankrupt a casino a cash cow people give you their money plus he lost something like a billion dollars great businessman I’ve read about don’t do that
Bald white guy will vote for Trump. He’s just too embarrassed to admit it.
Why is the interviewer wearing a mask? The guests aren’t and she’s like 15 feet away. That said, these people were useful idiots.
Typical Republicans! They failed to do their research and got finessed by a fake billionaire! They complain, but will still vote for criminal Trump! They put themselves in the situation they’re in because of their vote! It’s not Trump’s fault their life is now in the toilet, it’s their fault! They’re to blame for the mess this country is in right now, they need to own it and do right by our country this time around, but I doubt they will.
😱😶😱😶 Better make sure Joe’s on board with SECURING our borders. Thousands of dangerous and armed and dangerous gang members hope to embark upon America 🇺🇸 illegally.
Yea there’s no good reason to be on the fence at this point. It’s as ridiculous as being on the fence about geocentricism vs heliocentrism. The facts are there. You’re just choosing to be ignorant.
People who are fickle fence sitters think they’re above the rest. Nothing could further from the truth all the information you need to decide has been available since the day the announce their intent to run. If you’re on the fence your either woefully ignorant or willfully obtuse. Basically their waiting for the marketing campaign of either candidate to convince them. They ignore all the information that is readily available and vote based on what the candidate portrays himself as in comercials. Idiots!
I voted for Trump in 2016 but will not be voting for him in 2020.
I am amazed that people don’t even seem to question whether you should run a country like you run a business? The bottom line for business is profit or loss, do you want that to be the bottom line for your country? Do you want to say to citizens , sorry but it doesnt make business sense to help you? Then if you still think that the country should be run as a business, shouldn’t you research the business record of the person you are choosing? Trump has declared bankruptcy 5 times, as importantly a little research would have revealed that Trump had no longstanding business relationships, because no one wanted to do business with him twice!
Come on my main man!! You know deep down inside your loins that trump works for traitor trump… pull up that fence and throw it away! Let’s vote for for Biden and the entire democratic ticket to save our precious America freedom and dignity. Trump is a traitor and a Russian asset. Trump sold his soul to putin for money and several golf courses. The Bible says a man can’t love two masters; he’ll love one and cleve and hate the other. Trump’s heart is with putin and his money. The Lord Jesus Christ has given trump over to a reprobate mind which basically he’s communicating with the the devil. A vote for the democrats and Biden is a vote to save restore heal and bring back the respect to America. Signed former Texas Republican
Trump’s a failed business man ! Bankrupt 6 times ! How do you know Trump’s platform ? Trump doesn’t even know his platform !
President Trumph is the best president ever hands down
The two men are still willing to look the other way, like Republican SENATORS.
TERM LIMITS FOR ALL
Jack Frost, you are a man after my heart.
Experience is what is needed now.
I voted Republican all my life except for the last election. Then I became an independent. With all other issues aside, if you don’t want to keep seeing huge numbers of deaths from Covid, we must vote for Biden. DT has dismissed the seriousness of Covid, creating division, encouraging mask-protesters, basically squandering any chances he had to get this virus under control.
I wish these low IQ idiots would tell me what exactly was it that made him appeal to them in the first place? The behavior at the primaries? The cheating and asking our enemy to help rig an election? The racism? Defending Neo-Nazis? The fraudulent university? The Hollywood Access tape? The history of bankruptcies and business failures? The multiple deferments? The bleach injections? The attacks on Gold Star families? What exactly appealed to you? You did it to yourselves. You’re getting what you deserve, morons.
That last guy basically said I won’t vote for a black person or woman
MY FATHER DONALD J TRUMP………….. AND SENATOR ERWIN TRUMP…………………. ( SENATOR WILAYAH INDEPENDENT )……………………………
I bought Mary’s book.
Is our country better off now than it was 3 years ago.
Everyone of your guests are complete idiots and ignorant to the fact that covid 19 is a deadly flu , what the he’ll are they going to do when the flu arrives in October
I think it is pretty strange how minorities are flocking to the GOP during this time, and these people are rejecting it…I’ve noticed that not a single one of them is mentioning the LANDSCAPE OF MICHIGAN during the time it is under Democrat leadership…. Well I could tell you in NY, we see Cuomo and De Blasio failing….
White supremacy is killing us all
Do you really think that a seat change in November will make 2020’s problems just disappear? We’ve had decades of ineffective government from both sides of the isle in Washington. What’s different now, regardless of who wins? These folks are scary.
