13 "independents" who voted for Trump [View all]

were interviewed by the NY Times in today's paper. None of the 13 said they regretted their vote--all said they would vote for him again. Many--primed by Trump--acknowledged that tariffs might lead to rough economic waters, but vowed to ride out the storm, even if it took five years.

One suspects a heavy diet of Fox News.
