At least 12 voters in the first-in-the-nation primary state of New Hampshire are absolutely gaga over real estate mogul Donald Trump.
Bloomberg Politics’ John Heilemann sat down Wednesday night with a focus group of 12 Trump supporters in the Granite State who riffed on why they thought the billionaire was the best candidate in a crowded GOP presidential field.
“He’s like one of us,” Janet, a former dog breeder, explained. “He may be a millionaire (sic), which separates him from everybody else. But besides the money issue, he’s still in tune with what everybody is wanting.”
Many also cited Trump’s vast wealth in identifying with him.
“I knew that he was a wealthy, successful man and I remember asking my mother if I could write him a letter to ask him how he made his money so that I could do it too,” Jessica, a data analyst, said.
Heilemann further asked the focus group what they believed a Trump presidency would look like.
“Classy,” Cheryl, a real estate agent, answered confidently.

“one of us…one of us…”
Okay, I’m sorry, but Trump isn’t one of you unless you happen to be a blatant racist. Then again, there’s a lot of blatant bigots in this country.
Real Americans are so down to earth, realists.
“He’s a lot like one of us” may be one of the saddest things I’ve ever read.
Well, TBH a lot of people out there are arrogant assholes.
Was this a focus group or the monthly meeting of the New Hampshire chapter of the Dunning–Kruger Society?
