Media, we will reach her tweets cspanwj, or on facebook, facebook. Com cspan. Thank you for being with us. A piece in the hill newspaper, focusing on whether there is a social stigma for being a supporter of donald trump, we want to hear from Trump Supporters. The risks of coming out as a republican or a trump supporter can be severe. As a result, many conservatives keep their mouths shut and remain quiet about their political views and these same conservatives show up at the polls and pull the report lever for republican candidates. Fear of stigma before sa is available online. The headline democrats demonizing Trump Supporters destroys accurate holes. This is the headline from inside times,new york tensions rise during faceoff in cortland. Please arresting portland. Hundreds of farright protesters in antifascist counterdemonstrators swarmed downtown oregon. They were largely successful. Morning,gan saturday gathering downtown with some wearing body armor and helmets, seizing weapons including shields towards the Willamette River with two dozen agencies again, those details from the associated press. We want to hear from supporters of President Trump and whether there is a stigma against supporting the president. This is from the president last thursday. [video clip] this is the greatest Political Movement in history of our country. A movementever been like this. Its based on love, we love our faith, our flag and our freedom. That is what it is about. Add to that the fact that we love our neighbors and we love. Ur country together we are united by a principle, a nations first duty must always be to its own citizens, its own, we have got to take care of our own. Not heard that from a politician or political leader in a long time. America first, america first. Host the president in new hampshire, the first of the nations primaries, he won it three years ago. We want to hear from trump. Upporters is there a stigma in supporting the president . Good morning. Caller i would like to say that the other is a stigma, but i dont care about it. Support theo president. I am africanamerican. I dont think hes a racist. I think that the glen has been put on him. I know what racism is. Im 55 years old. Have allowed the media and white folks to define what racism is an black people need to stop allowing the Democratic Party to do that. Sounds like you are driving and listening to cspan radio . Caller yes. Host thanks for joining in. It is also heard on the free cspan radio app and coasttocoast on sirius xm. Is joining us from olympia, washington. Good morning. Support theally president and its hard to get through pass the lies the democrats put up. When he said there is fine people on both sides, if they read the 1500 words or whatever went with that context, anybody would know that he wasnt talking about the black, i mean the white nationalists. They talk about him being a racist. I have never heard him say one word that is racist. They attribute that to his, you know it wouldnt matter who was coming over the border in these mass numbers, if they were white, black, or blue. It doesnt matter. He is contending with the volume of the people coming over. Color has nothing to do with it. There are so many things that we have to work through. I think the democrats are really quite rude about how they do treat Trump Supporters. They are absolutely rude. The hate comes from their side. Not from the republican side. Host thank you for the call. Bill king has this tweet host harold is joining us next from westwood, new jersey. Good morning. Caller my comment has to do with im a 96yearold veteran. What you just read is obviously fake news. Heres the real problem, in my opinion. If he does drain the swamp, and thats what we have to do, people are afraid of the truth. Of truth couldht be hope for everybody. Its a final opportunity to save our country from the National Debt and the Serious Problems that we have. The democrats are afraid of i would think this, the internal polling of the democrats has already showed them that they are going to lose. Theres no way they can be donald trump. They are trying to make him make a serious mistake. ,y throwing all of this at him that itviously possible is Donald Trumps to lose and if he loses, it may be the last chance to save our country. I was at one time a democrat and then republican and they are all against him. They want to keep the status quo and the status quo is divisive and financially impossible to maintain. God we willp of , but itald trump again has got to be all of the citizens have got to start pulling together and what i tried to tell my grandchildren is read and think. Host thank you for the call. How old . Caller just 96. Host sound great, keep it up. Whats your secret . Caller thank you. The citizens must really unite. Seriously. Unconditional love is the solution. God is the solution. We must love our enemies and do good to those who persecute us. Host thank you for the call. Another tweet host dan bowles has this opinion piece inside of the washington post. Trump has mastered the sideline of tweeting and not leading. This morning from the washington post, available online. Isaac is joining us from san bernardino, california. Trump supporters only in the first hour. Good morning. Caller that last column that you just read right now, you know, obama spent his first four years blaming george w. Bush. It makes no difference to me. I want to say that as a pro trump supporter im also black, so when a white liberal berates maga haty mag up on, host lets go to ray. The criticism of the republican president has always been personal. On the democratic side they have never been able to criticize a republican president based on the issues. Lower taxes, smaller government, a more effective defense, a stronger economy. Thats the heart of the republican message. The democrats have nothing that can rival that. Milton friedman said it right. What you tax more of, you get less of. The economics of the democratic already is bankrupt. They want us to have venezuelan care for medicine and they want to increase the size of the welfare state and do everything they can to diminish the strength of the family. These are things that the American Public rejects no matter how much the media endeavors to cloud the issues. Personal attacks against policies that are working are not going to change the electorate. Thank you for the call. This from freelancer. Ost send is a tweet, cspanwj in the piece it says whether or not there is a social stigma associated with supporting the president. What we do from time to time his mix things up to hear from different points of view. This morning it is all Trump Supporters. Linda, rhode island, good morning. All i want to say is that i dont think it is exactly a stigma, but certainly we are attacked for our beliefs. , ior to Trump Taking Office also felt that i couldnt express my true beliefs openly because i would be discriminated against. And suffer consequences. You know, i own a business. If i have a different believe, i dont think it should affect my income. You can see from the way that they have you know, exposed people who donated to trump and then attacked them as donators, i believe it was in texas, thats highly unfair. I dont believe its fair. Thank you. Host thank you. Jim garrity has this piece about Trump Supporters that reads as follows host the full piece is that nationalreview. Com. Richard, malden, massachusetts. Caller good morning, i support trouble because he is one of the only politicians that when he was running for president he made some promises and hes trying to keep them. Listened to the people. He talks to the people. We talk to each other. You dont pretend being a nice guy politician. Thats all i have to say. The only thing i cant why people when they listen to these politicians say what they are going to do. They never do it. Old and i havent seen it done yet until President Trump came in. I appreciate you letting me talk. Host richard, thank you. Brandon, youre next. Caller good morning. I was just wondering, the trump many inrs, i know so the panhandle, do we need to start doing more . Do we need to show up some places . Talking to the democrats the way that they do us . Thats what i want to know. Hank, you next. Patrick, south carolina. Caller i just want to say that i support the president. Support obama and some of the things that bush did i didnt support, but aidan go around all day long bashing him. If you support trump, they call you racist, not see, klansmen. Where are they at, you know . Im tired of getting called because i dont agree with you all, the Mainstream Media version of things, i get called a nazir a racist or a racist. Im just going to be more vocal. Like the liberals do come i dont want to run them out of restaurants and stuff like that. But im not going to be afraid anymore. Thank you for the call. John has this tweet, iowa was deplorable when deplorable was not cool. Bob . Caller yesterday on television bill martin wished for a recession. How could any democrat stand to go through that suffering . Hes worth millions. I dont understand it. Yes, im a trump supporter and its terrible. You get criticized, they call you a racist, i call you everything. Host thats why were asking the questions this morning, about whether there is a stigma supporting the president. Susan, thank you for waiting. Caller yeah, hi. Host good morning, you are on the air. Caller yes. Yes, there definitely is a stigma. Every time a democrat says obstruction over whatever donald trump says if he says right, they go left. Its very, very upsetting. Susan, thanks. This editorial is from the Washington Examiner dealing with congressman castro and his brother who is running for president , this focuses on joaquin castro, it reads as follows often a that from the Washington Examiner. Heres more from julian castro. [video clip] s lists are public with complete transparency. When i was running for congress, they always publish the names in the newspapers of the contributors who contributed to the candidates. You did nothing that everybody didnt already know, correct . I get into the discussion, i want to mention that some of these republicans said that i dock street these people. Thats when you tell someone a physical address or phone number. None of that was in this graphic that i shared that was first put up against circulated by a local group. My post was actually a lament. If you look at my language, i said that it is sad that these folks, many of whom are prominent Business Owners in san a city that 75 hispanic, the customers, the people that made them wealthy, the employees of the people that worked for them for years, many of those folks are hispanic and they are giving their money to a guy running ads talking about hispanics invading the country. It was a lament about all of us going to the restaurants these people own, we patronize these places and they are giving this money, their money to this guy who is taking their money and using it to purchase facebook ads talking about how hispanics are invading this country. There is a cost to that. We saw the cast the cost over the weekend. People died. The manifesto the deck i wrote could have been written by the people that write trumps speeches. That was congressman joaquin castro, releasing the names of the people supporting donald trump. Our question is whether or not there is a social stigma to supporting the president. Next we go to doris, joining us from fountain hill, arizona. Good morning. Caller the stigma is that when Something Like this comes on washington journal come to this i watch all the time, you end up doing what you are trying to talk to people about. Theres nothing they have on about President Trump that isnt negative. Here you have asked for a Trump Supporters to call in. You are doing the same thing. I have a right to support who i want to support and i have a right to my beliefs, but its ok for the democrats to call me names . And to tell me im wrong . Host call is exactly why we are asking this question. I know, and instead of being positive for Trump Supporters, its all negative. Every tweet that you read is negative for trump. Has beenry call positive. Caller there should be no stigma to believe what you believe. As long as you are not hurting anyone else, you have a right to believe and express it. Caller you understand that our job here is not to host host you understand that our job here is not to be a cheerleader for any president , simply to provide points of you, but your call is why we want to hear from people like you. I understand that, but your questions are always negative. Host well, we basically editorial from the hill caller of course the editorials are against trump, all the people who want to stay in power are against trump. Most of the country appreciates that he wants to do something different. It is ok for the press and everybody to say horrible things about him personally and for his supporters personally, but its not ok for me to support him. Just because they believe things about him they are delusional. The democrats are delusional. They dont live in the real world. Host thank you. Your final point . Just want to say that just because a democrat says it doesnt mean its true. Host arlene, your next from charlottesville, virginia. Its delusional, no doubt about it. A husband doesnt want to put keep America Great sign in our yard because he doesnt want anybody to say anything. Everyone thinks hes a racist and hes not. Trump is the best president we have had a long time. Thank you. This is from staff. Host jim is joining us from brooklyn, new york, good morning, welcome to the conversation.

Caller how about you do a story the slateke article about how the New York Times is moving from fake russian collusion until election time it is going to be about nothing but trump is a racist and in turn we are all racists. You guys are just playing into it. People are going to get hurt with your rhetoric. You let these people come on. Right now it is nothing but Trump Supporters but after this it will be 31 democrats. You have your manufactured callers calling and who do nothing but bash trump and in turn bash all Trump Supporters. Let me stop you there, there are no manufactured callers. Weve get the tweets, we put the points of you out there. Its an open forum and an open book and we dont have any agenda, we never have. It,er yes you do, you know i will hope you up to a lie detector know the you are full of crap.

Dolores is joining us from carlisle, massachusetts. Good morning. Morning. Ood i just sat down to the tv. I have three points to make. Corruption in the country was beyond anything be and thats why trump was in office and i really cannot believe what is going on. As far as the second thing, people who like trump never answer the phone, thats the truth, everyone is against them. Third, everything happening in this country is because of immigration and trump is trying but the last thing i want to tell you is that when i picked up the phone for how many years of my life, im 91, it says press one for english and press two for spanish. Do you know what that does to the American People . No longer when it was. When i was a little girl, people loved the president , there was a patriotism. The second war, people couldnt do enough. With the altogether war, but not now, it would never be like that. Trump was elected it was 3 00 on the morning and i got down to my knees at 3 00 and i said god, if this man does not get in, the country is gone. Thats all i want to say. Everyone please pray because if he doesnt save it now, its no longer the america that we know. Ok . Thank you very much. From time magazine, the battle for the soul of hong kong.
