Many American voters will still vote for Trump even though they 'hate him'

Although she "half-jokingly" said she would never date someone like Trump, Kathryn Doherty said she would still vote for the American billionaire.

Reutersquoted Ms. Doherty, a 67-year-old woman, asserting that she did not like the way Mr. Trump talked about women as in the leaked video in 2005: "Believe me, I would never date someone like him and if someone like Mr. Trump came to my house asking to date my daughter, I would find a way to put her in a convent."

Trump is bad, Clinton is worse

“I am very unhappy and do not like him as a person,” Ms. Doherty shared. “However, I think he will do good things for the country. Honestly, Hillary Clinton has “robbed” us too much, she has lied too many times and I cannot accept that.”

According to Ms. Doherty, she and her husband - two Republican voters - are willing to overlook Mr. Trump's mistake because they trust the American billionaire more than Mrs. Clinton. Both of them also agree with Mr. Trump on some issues.

“Of course I wish I had a better choice, but it wasn't and I have to accept what I have,” said Ms Doherty.

According toReutersWhat Ms. Doherty shared is also the "dilemma" of many American women, who are having to hesitate to choose Mr. Trump or Mrs. Clinton in the context of "a wave of not-so-nice information" about Mr. Trump's scandal of using vulgar language towards women and Mrs. Clinton's scandal of using personal email for public work.

These people believe that no matter who they choose, they are being pushed into an “extremely dark” situation. However, dozens of people areReutersThe interviewees affirmed that, even though they do not have sympathy for Mr. Trump, they will continue to "stand shoulder to shoulder" with him.

This was also shared by Ms. Eleanor Reigel, an independent voter. Ms. Reigel said that she was very disappointed with what Mr. Trump said but would still vote for the American billionaire.

“I am a woman. I support Title IX, which prohibits discrimination against women in education or other federal government assistance. However, I need to look at the bigger picture.”

Ms. Reigel shared that, as a businesswoman, she shares Mr. Trump's views on issues related to tax policy: "You can't ask him to change his personality, but you need to at least consider where he is taking the country."

Despite scandal, Trump's approval rating among women continues to rise

Not only did they vote for Mr. Trump, many women also spoke out strongly in support of the American billionaire. They asserted that the leaked video involving Mr. Trump in 2005 and the media’s accusations against him were part of a campaign to smear Mrs. Clinton’s opponent.

“He speaks to all of our minds,” said Kathy Baxter, 76, a lifelong Democrat who has decided to become a Republican and vote for Trump.

“Men say that, you know what I mean?” Ms. Baxter said. “That’s their nature. They like to say it.” Meanwhile, Ms. Baxter strongly criticized Ms. Clinton: “Her lies and her use of a private email scandal are much more condemnable than what Mr. Trump said.”

Meanwhile, 63-year-old Anne Snyder said she initially did not intend to vote for Trump because she “could not stomach the American billionaire’s personality”: “I didn’t know what to do. I really believed that I did not want to vote for Trump, but I was not a supporter of Clinton either.” However, she eventually decided to change her initial opinion.

American men are also "tolerant" of Trump

Like many American women, many male voters, including Democrats, also expressed support for Mr. Trump because they could not accept the policies of the Democratic Party under President Obama and later inherited by Mrs. Hillary Clinton.

Among them is Mr. Dave Johnson, 48 years old, who works in the health insurance industry. Mr. Johnson was extremely indignant when the company he worked for decided not to pay insurance for him just because the cost was too high.

“Even when I was in the insurance business, I still didn’t get insurance,” Mr. Johnson harshly criticized the Obamacare health care policy under President Obama - which is expected to remain in place if Mrs. Clinton wins the election.

Mr. Johnson has just decided to switch to supporting the Republican Party and billionaire Trump. According to Mr. Johnson, the scandals related to Mr. Trump do not affect how he will be President.

Mr. Johnson believes that Mr. Trump is the best choice to heal and revive a “broken” country like the US: “America is now a ruin. I look forward to renewal. I do not believe that we need any more politicians from the “political elite” (referring to Mrs. Clinton).”

Like Mr. Johnson, Mr. Robert Henson, 54 years old, also decided to "break the rules" to vote for Mr. Trump even though he watched a 2005 video in which Mr. Trump used vulgar words to talk about women.

“I watched the video a couple of times. I couldn’t believe he would say something like that, especially since he’s a very wealthy man and a public figure. Plus, he has a daughter.” Still, Henson decided to vote for Trump because: “I’m fed up with Clinton.”
