And I think that is definitely related to personal charisma. People wanted to like Obama. And I think the reality is a lot of people want to like Trump. And so they will invent reasons to do so.

He's going to focus on the criminals. Why do you think, you know, why do you think it's racist? Like you're being crazy. There is a gap between Trumpists and Trump.
