9/11 was a defining moment for me. All of the sudden I felt more than I ever had—I had a lot of instability in my life growing up—but I felt so helpless that day, and so scared.

I didn’t know what was happening. All I knew was that, as a mother and a grandmother, I wanted to protect my family, and that’s when I became very interested in what was going on politically.

I never had a sense of security and safety when Obama was president because I felt like he was weak and he didn’t really have our best interest in mind, and I feel like Trump does.

Even though he’s not perfect and he’s done a lot of things wrong, I think he still, deep down, has a real interest in helping Americans and exalting us in the eyes of the world again and working together with other countries in order to make us all better off.

I feel so grateful for one thing: not that Trump is perfect, but that Hillary didn’t get elected because I feel like it would have been such a nightmare if she had gotten elected.

Along with other lists of concerns the world has when it comes to Donald Trump, his lack of professionalism is a big one. There have been so many times when he’d say something on twitter and then the following day, or even the following hours, the internet would go ahead and debunk his words.

I do not think Donald Trump embodies what it means to be an American. I do not think he embraces people from different walks of life, different races, and ethnicities.

He doesn’t value anyone other than himself, which is really sad because of instead of moving forward, we’re moving backward.
